Quest, I am like that. But not only am I perimenopausal, I am also hypoglycemic. The part of the weight that was brought on by unstable insulin is gone. But the weight my body is hanging on to, for the sake of estrogen, is the last 15 lbs that I am trying to get rid of. I think, though, that there is a corelation between insulin resistance and menopause. If I were a physician this would be a research project.
