Perimenopause is a broad topic and one that I have researched and learned a lot about. Why? Because I am going through it right now also. I am 45 years old and started having symptoms about 2 years ago. I also started to gain weight around my waist - something that I never had to worry about before.
I am a personal trainer, yoga teacher and health nut so I have never had to worry about my weight. Then hormone imbalance hit and wow! What a difference! That began my obsession into finding out how I can control this unwanted weight gain (around my waist) and some of the uncomfortable symptoms I was experiencing. I realized that it was my responsibility to help myself. I needed to find out what was going on and what I could do about it - NATURALLY! I have gathered tons of information through my experiences as a personal trainer, yoga teacher and my years of studying nutrition, health and self-development.
I do practice what I preach. Below is a picture of me and my cousin this ummer (July 2009) on the beautiful Hornby Island off the coast of Vancouver Island, BC (Canada). I live on Vancouver Island. We are both 45 years old and have had 1 child each. We have had to adjust our eating over the years to help us stay lean and healthy. It is all about what you eat and your lifestyle. It is possible for anyone.
So let me know what you want to know. I will then write about it. Until then, I will post information I feel is valuable and that will help you in your journey through this phase of your life.
Can't wait to hear from you!
