Sometimes....especially during menopause you are fatter and more bloated then normal...you can feel bad and ugly like I do...or you can work on yourself....which I can't I don't have the stomach for it...I always have an appetite now since menopause and I eat the whole day...I have gained 27 pounds in 7 years...however I was only 90 pounds before it started...so I just take it as it comes...
