Can I really blame my extra tire on menopause? And if so, once I make it through, will it go away??

Hi Doris,
I am a lot older than you and can only tell you my feelings, around family, as I've aged.
My childhood was rough and my parents made so many mistakes, alcoholism, neglect, etc. For many years I resented them for giving me such a poor 
Thanks Barbara, I guess the constant rejection applying for phlebotomy position really got me down.I am researching working as a medical esthetician that would get me out of the Spa but I would still be in skincare. Also I have 26 years experience as

Hey gals,
I’m proof that it’s possible to tame the muffin top–dare I say banish it? I just couldn’t handle the spare tire thing when I put on my fave clothes.

I’m not selling anything, if you’d like the information just head over to http://easymidlifeweightloss.com and you’ can have 7 days of science based info that I’ve proven–the long and hard way, let me save you the same fate–to work.
