Perimenopause and Summer

Not such a good mix. This is the time of year when I wish I had a walk in freezer in my basement. :-P I know there's things I can do to minimize some of the effects of this, but some I'm not willing to do. Like give up caffeine. (NEVER!!!) I'm starting to lose weight, so that will help a little. Staying out of the sun...that's tough since part of my weight loss "program" is walking. Outside. In the sun. I have a new thing to help cool me off this summer though. I discovered Ciao Bella Sorbet, in blackberry cabernet, and blood orange flavors. Fat free and rich enough I actually stick to the serving size. ;-) I daresay, it's better than ice cream! :-O So if I can't have my walk in freezer, at least I can eat somewhat healthier frozen treats instead. Other than that, I'll be hanging out in front of the nearest fan with some ice water. Planning my menopause party.
