Menopause Support Group
Menopause is the physiological cessation of menstrual cycles associated with advancing age. It normally occurs in women between the ages of 45 and 55, when the body begins to slow and stop the production of eggs, estrogen and progesterone production decreases, and menstruation diminishes, eventually stopping altogether.

Did anyone else go through a bad time starting menopause where you were frightened about no longer being attractive and young and joining an age group that you only associated with your mother's generation?
I have got through it a bit now and actually feel a bit of relief from the pressure to look like a 'babe' all the time and realise that there are other things in life besides that. What's your experience.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
I don't dismiss the process. I think we need to embrace the thought gently, and with baby steps. There is something about saying goodbye to our younger years that causes us to feel a loss in many ways. I had to kinda grieve that.
I stand tall and proud now with all of the women that are my age...or approaching my age, OR older, and I think we can do it with our own "style"
Blessings..
