Dear me at 35. A letter from 47. You're going to do everything right and it's going to stop working. That isn't you, that's the rules changing. You'll be told to eat less; you'll be hungrier, sadder and the same size. At this stage your body asks for more protein, more calcium and steadier meals, not fewer. Your stage sets the numbers, not your willpower. Start logging before you think you need to. By day 21 the pattern is obvious. Plait: Menopause Coach, in the App Store. Free to start.
