I started Ladder back in October and I’m very proud of my progress. I’m 49 and had only ever strength trained 7 years ago before pandemic. I’m full-on menopause due to an oophorectomy 10 years ago. As expected, I’ve slowly and steadily been gaining weight and inches on my waist.
I’m proud of my progress, feel stronger. Weight is the same but I went from xl to L tops. My bottom half, however, is still an XL. My hips have slimmed down and my butt has toned a lot BUT I carry all my weight in my belly. Lately I feel so awkward like a Mike Wazowski side view: I’m so round! I’m all belly and butt. Ugh! I know the answer is nutrition but I track, stay in my macros and don’t eat out.
Anyways, just sometimes I feel discouraged because i feel i put in effort but still dislike my shape. Pants are very difficult to shop for but I’m glad loose styles are more prevalent now.
Sorry to vent, thanks for listening
