6. You Will Gain Weight
Weight gain is common, though not inevitable. Although decreasing estrogen can contribute to weigh gain, especially around the waistline, most weight gain is down to lifestyle factors like diet and lack of exercise and age-related loss of muscle tone. In addition the amount of energy you use while you exercise decreases.
Increasing exercise even by just building more walking into your daily routine can help, as can keeping an eye on portion sizes.
