Funny how it moves around sometimes, eh @Sister?
I reckon I've whacked on a good 3-4kg since going onto Exemestane in the last 6 months (and I didn't eat too much at Xmas/New Year either.) I used to have a waist!! No more do I wear a top that tucks into my trousers! Only loose baggy top stuff for me now!
Mine is all around my belly ..... when I sit down, I have 2-3 rolls of belly fat that I didn't have before - not that it was ever a 6 pack or anything, either! I am doing roughly the same exercise that I've been doing the last 5-10 years & eating similar food as well ..... so I reckon I shouldn't be putting on weight!
Your explanation of how the body NEEDS to gain weight with these lipase ...... is the secret to losing weight after going thru 'natural' menopause too (even if NOT on AIs.) It is these hormones that are dictating the 'fat saving' and it needs a blood test to show which are out of synch ..... and, if followed, a specific diet that appears to have you continuously eating small but nutritious food (to keep the Basal Metabolic Rate 'high' which burns up calories) is what helps drop the weight off! over a period of time.
Thanks for that
