Weight loss: You should make sure you are eating a healthy balanced diet - do not eliminate lean proteins, healthy fats, and good carbohydrates. Have them check your horomones and imbalances can cause weight gain. Very possible perimenopausal depending on age - the first thing that happens is the Progesterone starts to decline.
