Cheri’s Corner-June 21st, 2010

I had my usual “hot flashes” today.  I’m actually getting pretty good at telling the time by them.  I seem to have them at 9:00 AM each morning, and of course, there are many more to come.  As I’m writing this blog, I’m having another one.  Too bad I can’t share it with you.

Some things I’ve discovered that will help you in Menopause are exercise and weight training. It is important to keep your muscles and bones strong. I suggest that women focus on weight training at least 3 times a week and also do aerobic exercises as well.  I know this has helped me and is an important part of my lifestyle.

Are you in Menopause and complaining about your shape… or should I say the lack of shape?  Well it’s true; our shape seems to disappear after Menopause.  We suddenly do not have a waist. In addition, our hips and the rest of our body become asymmetrical.  The good news is that tunics are back and they can hide some of those figure flaws!  I think I’m going to check QVC to order some right now…
