Muffin top after menopause

Is there any remedy? Someone posted in another thread she is not overweight but has fat around the midsection. Same for me.

I have read that after menopause the body starts storing fat around the waist because this helps the immune system which is compromised somewhat by the lack of estrogen.

So maybe it is counterproductive to try to get rid of this fat? I have after several years more or less accepted that my pre menopause pants will never fit me in the waist again. Could this extra fat be the reason I have not had a cold in the last two years? Would it be a mistake to try to get rid of it?

According to charts I am a little UNDERweight.

I wonder how many others in this forum have gained a muffin top after menopause and whether they just accept it or fight it or maybe have successfully gotten rid of it.
