If you are an older woman going through menopause and gaining weight, you might 
be wanting or trying to loose weight. While trying to loose weight can be 
difficult in itself, sometimes it is made worse by saboteurs who don't want you 
to loose weight.

Anytime you are trying to loose weight (or setting any other kind of goal) it 
is important that you have people around you who are supportive of your weight 
loose goal. It's unfortunate, but not everyone is going to support you. Even 
those who love you can sometimes be opposed to your loosing weight.

Why some people will oppose your efforts to loose weight:
Some people in your life will try to sabotage your success because they are 
afraid of loosing something between you once you reach your goal. If it is your 
spouse, they might feel threatened by your new, slimmer appearance and fear 
that you will look more attractive to others. Or that you might leave them for 
a better looking person.

If the saboteur is a sister or brother, they might be afraid of loosing an 
eating out buddy: someone to share good food with at cafes and restaurants. A 
good friend may also have these fears, and may also fear that once you loose 
weight, you will dump them for "better" friends.  

Some clues to look for in a weight loose saboteur:
1. They criticize your efforts at weight loose. They criticize everything you 
do and the way you manage your weight loss program. 
2. They offer you fatty foods. They often place your favorite, fatty foods in 
front of you to tempt you into eating it.
3. They wait for you to slip up. They keep a close eye on your eating 
activities and then pounce on you when you slip up. They will say something 
along the lines of "see, you can't do it."
4. They will tell you you're shallow for wanting to loose weight. They might 
make comments about how there are more important things in life, or that you 
should work on your inside instead of your outside.

Don't be discouraged by these nay-sayers. They are reacting to your loosing 
weight out of fear. It's no good pushing them away (unless they are downright 
mean and nasty). Instead, try talking to them about the reasons you want to 
loose weight, and reassure them that your relationship with them will not 
change. 
Ask them to support you in a positive way. 

When you are open and honest about why you are loosing weight, and are 
sincerely asking them to support you, they will most likely stop trying to 
sabotage your weight loose goals.
