Menopause Weight Gain Is Not Always Inevitable

If you are a woman in your forties or fifties, you may have noticed a few extra inches around your waist. These stubborn pounds are usually a part of menopause weight gain. During the transition to menopause, many women find that losing weight is very difficult, and they also notice a shift in weight from their hips and thighs to their stomachs. Menopause weight gain, especially in the abdomen, is a normal part of the signs of menopause but thankfully, it does not have to be inevitable.

One of the first steps women can take is to prevent menopause weight gain before it starts. Starting in your thirties, it’s an excellent idea to pay extra attention to your diet and exercise plan. Try to adhere to a healthy, low-calorie diet and increase the amount of exercise you get. As your metabolism slows with age, you’ll probably need about 200 fewer calories per day. In addition, aerobic exercise and weight training are beneficial in avoiding menopause weight gain. At this time of life, a woman’s body tends to burn fewer calories and lose muscle mass. A proper exercise plan can help you fight these tendencies. As an added benefit, osteoporosis exercise early in life can significantly reduce your chances of suffering with another major health issue as you age, osteoporosis.

Menopause weight gain is not only uncomfortable, but it also may lead to more serious health problems. Menopause itself can be a factor in heart disease, osteoporosis, and cancer. Menopause weight gain will increase the chance of these conditions. Menopause weight gain has also been linked to high cholesterol, high blood pressure, diabetes, and breast cancer risk. Anything women can do to prevent menopause weight gain will have tremendous positive influences on lifelong health. Averting menopause weight gain will likely diminish the apparent link between menopause and depression.

Finally, there is increasing evidence that menopause weight gain could be linked to thyroid problems like hypothyroidism. If you suspect your weight gain is caused by a thyroid condition, you should check into this possibility as soon as possible. By taking the proper steps, you can win the war against menopause weight gain and enter your golden years as healthy as ever.
