That final year of waiting to celebrating being through menopause I felt like a chick waiting for a chicken hawk to swoop down. My puberty was nothing like those 6 years of my body giving up the ghost on fertility. I'm glad to be done with. I feel that being through menopause completely, now, is like being freed from a prison, the prison of peri-menopause. |

Lora,
I am not sure if you have tried it yet, but I have heard some wonderful things about bone broth. My joints have been screaming at me since I reached menopause and my stomach is a mess too, so I am going to give this a shot and see what happens. I eat pretty healthy, but then I have an awful lot of food allergies/sensitivities, and suspect some of those are undiscovered. I don't know if it will help, but I am thinking of trying it to see if it helps. Tired of hurting.

Bone broth is so easy to make!! And it's not icky--it's just broth... made from bones. I collect the bones from whatever meat we've eaten, put it in the crockpot with some garlic cloves and a splash of cider vinegar and let it simmer for a day or two. Try to include the cartilage, too. Makes the broth thicker... very good for the joints!

I quit worrying about it. It's not worth stressing about the changes that are happening. The skin is changing, so what. Not to sound terrible, but I finally learned to be content with my body where it is and at what stage of the journey I am in. I am not going to reach for the next miracle cream, fad diet, or workout. My body is beautiful right now. A little belly fat is a bit more to hug. What matters is the beauty inside.
