Jobob, lol.

But, Hermitgirl...you say you don't want to diet, but if you really are hiking an hour 5 days a week, and jogging, there must be something else to do. It's either what's going out or what's going in. Now is the time to be brutally honest with yourself, and start recording what you do. We often grossly overestimate the amount of exercise we do, and grossly underestimate the amount of food we eat.

The only way to stop that is to write it all down and review it later. fitday.com, nutritiondata.com, calorieking.com, biggestloser.com, sparkpeople.com. Lots of choices. Don't get too bogged down in those websites and the "community". Just make one little change, and start logging your food and exercise. If you have an Iphone or PDA or Blackberry, get the food logging app for it.

You don't have to diet. You just have to measure and make appropriate little changes one at a time, and be consistent!

Don't blame it all on menopause until you know it's not you.
