Did you know that around 50% of women experience weight gain during menopause? While the cause is unknown, many women struggle to lose weight during this time. If you're one of them, don't worry – here are 5 tips for weight loss during menopause.

1. Track Your Calories

One of the biggest struggles during menopause is binge eating and emotional eating. You may feel, at times, that you're unable to control your cravings and turn to food for comfort. One way around this? Write down what you eat every day. Not only will this help keep you accountable, but it also serves as a reminder of how many calories you're consuming.

2. Work Out With A Friend

While working out solo has its advantages (you can take time to do whatever), exercising with a friend makes it more likely that you'll follow through with your plans to work out. Try taking walks or calling each other up after dinner for strength training sessions together! You can even set specific times throughout the week to meet up.

3. Try New Workouts

If you currently do the same workout routine every day, it's time for a change! You may feel that your weight loss efforts are stalled because your body is accustomed to working out in the same way (hello plateau!). If this sounds like you, switch things up by trying new workouts or allowing yourself to skip certain days of exercise here and there. For example, go for an extra walk after dinner or complete yoga routines on different days. You'll be surprised at how much more motivated you become when you try something new!

4. Swap Out Your Morning Coffee And Tea For Water

While coffee and tea can be part of a healthy diet, they're often loaded with sugar and cream. The next time you head to the kitchen for a cup of joe or warm tea, try drinking ice cold water instead. Not only will this help clear your palate, but it'll also give you a boost of energy before you hit the ground running in the morning.

5. Take A Health Supplement

If diet and exercise aren't doing enough for weight loss (or if you're experiencing symptoms like hair loss), consider taking a health supplement. These can help with everything from boosting metabolism to shoring up thyroid function. The bottom line? If you're struggling with weight loss during menopause, there's no shame in reaching for a little help!

While weight gain is common during menopause, it’s not inevitable. If you’re looking to slim down during this time in your life, try implementing some of these tips. We hope these tips help you reach and maintain your healthy weight goals!
