It is nice to have a doctor who really listens and validates you. I have been feeling like this weight gain is somehow my failure and something I should be able to control. It isn't. So I need to continue to eat well and be mindful, but stop obsessing. Here is the takeaway from my doctors (pcp & gyn): For some of us, perimenopause is a bitch and there is nothing we can really do about it til we are menopausal. Once we're menopausal, there are a bunch of treatments, but until then... buckle up for the ride and don't beat yourself up. OH! She also said most women are fully menopausal by 51. Really?? I'm out here messing up the curve at 52! One thing she did say was that women of our age tend to benefit more from strength training over cardio. That's good information to have. (Yoga was a great suggestion, Wiggy!) My PCP is checking my thyroid to be sure I'm taking the right synthroid dosage (Which is currently 1/2 the smallest dose). This is also my year for a preventative colonoscopy and an endoscopy to check on my hiatal hernia. Lucky me! So... I guess the lesson I need to learn from this period of life is to let go, continue to incorporate all the lessons I learned to get me to this place, and don't look at the numbers. It won't be easy... I've been obsessing over numbers for nearly 40 years!
