I am 53 and have not had a period for 9 months . . . I think I am on the down stretch. I always struggle with weight and over the last few years struggle just not to gain. I sit all day at my computer job and I am allergic to exercise. However, in the last few weeks I seem to be gaining weight for no reason 3-4 pounds every few days. I am up 8 pounds in two weeks and it won't move. Also very moody, I know I would feel better if I could just physically hurt someone. LOL
