The day I turned 50 years old, my metabolism came to a screaching halt. Seriously!! I went to bed and the next morning I weighed 5 pounds more than I did the day before!! No amount of running, playing tennis or starving myself helped me shed this extra 5 pounds. Since that day, I have worked like a crazy woman to combat the effects of turning 50 and gasp...menopause. So if you are a woman under the age of 30 now is probably a good time to quit reading this. Not to scare you, but I wouldn't wish menopause on anyone...well okay there are a few people that I would love to watch go through the HELL that us women deal with.
