Weight gain during and after menopause is common and can have significant health consequences.

The Mayo Clinic says women can help avoid menopausal weight gain by:

• Getting plenty of exercise, incorporating both strength training and aerobic exercise into the daily workout routine.
• Cutting down on calories by eating lean proteins, and more fruit, vegetables and whole grains.
• Getting support from loved ones and friends.
• Finding fun ways to be healthier, such as by taking a daily walk or yoga class, eating fresh fruit more often, or by sharing a restaurant entree with a friend.
