Toni....I'll see your 15 "post" years and raise you by 8 more...lol... I could've raised you an additional year...but my menopausal trip sort of got interrupted midway through by a totally unexpected pregnacy...(he's now 23)

ChaCha....I can't say as I've noticed any difference due to being post-
menopausal...maybe I'm just one of the lucky ones? I lost 65 pounds the first time I tried this WOE...but like you I got sidetracked by life and forgot to focus on myself...so ended up gaining it all back...plus some..
I think the difference, this time...is that I've finally come to terms with the fact that this is NOT A DIET...I cannot stay on it only long enough to lose the weight and then go back to the way I ate before...This is now, for me, A LIFETIME COMMITMENT..Being able to come here and vent...gain insight....and encouragement from everyone...makes the day to day
journey easier...So keep on posting...We'll be here for you...

Lynn

p.s. I'm seriously pushing 69...so it's not too late for your mom either..
