They don’t call it middle age for nothing. Right around our 40s and 50s, something starts to happen to our middles. The question is, how much of a role do hormonal changes and menopause play in weight gain, and are there things we can do to help prevent menopause weight gain?

Tis the season for holiday gatherings, cheer… and derailing your weight loss plan.

But the farther away you veer from your healthy eating and workout plan, the harder it will be to get back on track, so it’s important to stay the course.
