Hello and welcome!

Unfortunately, yes, menopause tends to slow things down, because your hormones work differently (and often erratically). But weightloss is still possible, so don't lose heart! Just be patient...

Good luck!

WELCOME to you, in Scotland! I am getting to understand "Stones" being in the US of A!

Just follow the plan to a T and you should lose quite well, menopause or not! (But do NOT get concerned IF you weigh daily!) Patience is required. Would you be happy with 5 pounds...10 in the next month?

Be SURE and take your measurements and write them down. When the loss slows, the inches still go down! You will want to see that wonderful progress as the inches melt.

Should be doable!
