The other big thing, which I didn't mention, due, apparently, to being brain dead...you have relatively little to lose.

You are starting out where many people work for a year or two to get to.

So, that can slow things down, considerably, as well. Kat's comment about the pokiness of weight loss during menopause rings true to me.

The only time I could lose, back then, was when I had an infection in my thyroid, and it was acting like I was severely hyperthyroid, including palpitations, tremors and losing half my hair.

Otherwise, even with the most excellent of standard, "healthy" diets, I just slowly gained from the age of about 47-60.

You are so smart to work at this NOW, when most women's sensitivity to carbs starts climbing.
