It's true. By the time we reach menopause we're moving into our final trimester of life. I know . . . it's kind of a weird way to look at things, but consider it a wake up call.
When I was younger, I didn't worry much about myself and my health. I was busy raising three children. Their health and well being were always at the top of my list. Now that all but one has left the nest, it's time for me to concentrate on taking care of myself so that I can be on top of my game in the upcoming years.
Menopause has certainly taken a toll on my sense of well being. The past year I've struggled with weight gain, crushing fatigue, hot flashes, insomnia, and don't let me forget. . . memory loss. I recently said, "ENOUGH", after visiting my doctor numerous times and getting no answers. I've taken my health into my own hands again. After lots of research, talking with others and meeting a new health care practitioner, I'm once again hopeful for my future.
Time to take care of me again. I'm eating healthier, taking the right supplements and looking into starting bio-identical hormones. My final years are going to be spent living life to the fullest!
