I'm 53 years old, and entered menopause at age 47. I have 70 pounds to lose and it's so much harder now since I've entered menopause. Can any diet help menopausal women lose weight?
A slower metabolism is an unfortunate part of the aging process. In fact, the average woman needs to exercise more and eat less in order to stay the exact same weight!

One of the most important things to consider is which diet will be easiest for you to maintain. If that’s Weight Watchers, then give it a try!
