I just turned 50 -- noticing many changes overnight -- and hope to explore the possibilities of feeing better by learning to take care of myself better.
March 08, 2013 at 09:04 pm
I am the mother of 3 grown children and 5 grandchildren . I feel like my children are ashamed to call me thier mother and it hurts plus I recently had a stroke and my husband walked out so I just want to feel beautiful and have my children proud to call me Mom.
February 28, 2013 at 09:37 pm
I'm 52 and sure could use a pick-me-up!!
February 18, 2013 at 04:02 am
Would love to win a menopause makeover! I've been dealing with menopause for some time and need a makeover!
February 17, 2013 at 06:12 pm
I just turned 50 and I feel like my body changed overnight. My periods are irregular, my breasts hurt all the time, I'm bloated and it's making me cranky. I hate feeling this way. I hate it even more that my physician recommended hormone treatment. I believe there MUST be a better way! HELP!!!!
February 14, 2013 at 06:12 am
I want a menopause makeover because I believe it will get me on the right track to feel better...look after myself better. I get the hot flashes...very uncomfortable. Having the menopause makeover will improve my life. Thank you.
February 11, 2013 at 04:36 pm
At 65 I need all the help I can get. When I get hot Flashes I go outside and melt the snow on my porch. Better than shoveling.
February 11, 2013 at 03:00 pm
Hello! I don't really think I should sign up for the makeover when I see all the other beautiful women who are in so much greater need. Reading their stories really touches my heart, and I think that maybe providing a way here for these sisters just being able to share what they are going through is a huge service. Bless you!
I was particularly touched by the story of Rita Cizek who wrote on January 22, 2013 at 05:55 pm. I don't know you, dear Rita, but if you read this, I want you to know that your story and mine are nearly identical, that I endured the same kind of marriage for 31 years, and most importantly, THERE IS HOPE! Hang in there, dear!
Love to you... RecoveringRobin@gmail.com

February 09, 2013 at 05:51 pm
I want to know how to reconized and manage menopause.
February 08, 2013 at 10:06 pm
I am tired of losing and then gaining weight, I have a 17 year old daughter and 3 grandchildren, and I want the energy and health to keep up with them. I don't have a lot of weight to lose, but it seems as if I can't keep it off! I would like to enjoy these years, and would love help doing that! I want to strengthen my core, and be in the best health I can be at this age!
February 08, 2013 at 05:59 pm
I'll be 50 in March. Turning 49 hit hard. I was always physically fit. Worked in the nursery field for years. So I was used to being on the go lifting, bending and enjoying the fresh air. Basically, my last lower discs are shot and I had to go out on disability Feb 2012. For a person who is used to being on the go and who's life was gardening, it's all pretty much gone. I'm trying so hard not to gain weight ( doing light yoga and some exercise when able) but my metabolism has drastically changed just this year. Frustrated like so many women are and not too thrilled with the belly fat thing ( which I never had) It would be great to have a makeover. Thank you for offering this contest.
February 08, 2013 at 03:04 am
I would like to win this one! Thanks.
February 07, 2013 at 09:13 pm
I believe I may be past the worst of my symptoms, but I really need encouragenent in embracing my age (55) and taking care of my body, I have many health issues, fibro, degenerative disc desease, the form of lupus that effects the skin,just kind of a mess right now. I am not really over weight, but I would like to eat better too to maybe help these conditions.I do have the memory loss thing going on, and mood swings.

February 06, 2013 at 12:06 pm
Want to look the best at my age.
February 05, 2013 at 01:56 pm
My story is very similar to others: hot flashes and weight gain! I love your book, though, and I'm planning daily workouts!
February 05, 2013 at 01:25 pm
I have just started the first signs and symptoms of menopause and I really need some help. I have never had a problem with weight gain and suddenly it has started to attract to my middle like a magnet! I have also experienced migraine headaches and my doctors and I had hoped that going through menopause would be a blessing in that the migraines would stop but have not. If given the makeover it might make me feel like I can manage some part of my life!
February 05, 2013 at 06:44 am
because I used to be so active, and energetic and even though I am still energetic, I have put on about 50lbs, which is not healthy, and with my family history of heart disease and diabetis, I really need to do SOMETHING to get this weight off, but menopause has really ran its tole on me.
February 04, 2013 at 06:00 pm
At 65, I need all the help I can get.
February 04, 2013 at 04:36 pm
I would love a menopause makeover because I recently hit menopause head on. It started with a few sweaty nights and turned into two months of almost constant hot flashes. It has subsided a bit now, but the real fun begins. The weight started creaping on and it was impossible to lose. It was nothing like it used to be - gain a few, lose a few. It was gain a few, hold, gain a few, hold, gain a few . . . Now I am 15 pounds overweight and miserable with myself. I had a recent visit with my gynecologist only to learn I am not a candidate for HRT. This is going to be an uphill battle. I would love to receive the Menopause Makeover to help me figure out my battle plan.
February 04, 2013 at 02:09 pm
In 2005 at the age of 47, I had a full hysterectomy. After the surgery I began to experience the symptoms of menopause. It began with the hot sweats and cold chills. I could not believe how horrible it was. I would wake up with the bed wet from the hot sweats and then would cover myself in order to manage the cold. Soon thereafter, I began to experience sleepless night. I mean, I went without sleep for days at a time. My life since then has been a series of issue with health problems, weight gain, and a roller coast of emotions. My sexual life has also been affected considerably. I’ve lost my mojo, my vagina is dry and sexual intercourse is painful. However, I refuse to use estrogen hormones because I am afraid to get cancer; since cancer runs in my family history.
My partner and family could not believe that I was going through what seemed the most difficult time in my life. I felt like I was losing my mind. I am now 54 year old and still go through the symptom. I have to thank God for the husband he choice for me because he has been my support. His patients and has help me to cope. I would love nothing more than to feel normal again. I would welcome a makeover and be able to feel the best me at 54.
February 03, 2013 at 08:11 pm
I want to lose 30 lbs before my daughter's wedding in June. I feel like since Menopause my eating is out of control and I want to get a grip on it!
February 03, 2013 at 07:55 pm
I have been suffering serious Menopause Issues the last 2 years...I will be 50 in May. My 15 year old daughters' friends call me the "Dragon Lady" (grrr), her Chief and 1st Sgt (in the JROTC) tell her and her fellow classmates that I actually scare them!? I cover up, uncover, put on socks, take off socks all night, I bark more than my dogs (and I have chihuahuas!), my husband (being 5 years younger than me) tells me he is going to trade me in for a younger, non menopausal woman. And that is just the beginning of my Menopause Makeover Needs. I look forward to being FAB OVER 50...i JUST NEED HELP GETTING THERE!!!
February 03, 2013 at 06:16 pm
L would really, like too win,needand want a makeover..You
all have a nice day.
February 03, 2013 at 03:23 pm
Because menopause stinks! No matter how many times I read how it CAN be a wonderous time, it is hard and uncomfortable and makes me understand why menopause was considered a crazy making malady in days gone by. Though I welcome the emotional wisdom and knowledge the discomfort can dredge up, it would be just lovely to have some guidance! Which is so difficult to come by in the medical profession. I feel like I am just throwing a bunch of remedies at a wall and hoping something sticks!
February 03, 2013 at 01:52 pm
Between the ages of 45-48 I felt good about myself, then BAM! I got on the menopause road to which I have to say wasn't too horrible except at the point that I was officially Post Menopausal (April 2012) & I hadn't even turned 50 yet!! I'm practically over dosing on black cohash & Soy to help alleviate the hot flashes. To make matters worse, I also quit smoking , went through a separation and am experiencing this wonderful threshold to middle-age called menopause all at the same time.. Wow I'm such a rebel lol. I am young at heart, but I feel like an old woman sometimes. Now its time for me, so I can feel good about myself once more.
February 03, 2013 at 01:07 pm
I have been going through the Meno "Phase" for the last 5 years. This past year (2012) was the worst for the symptons, but finally a year has past without the menses!!! Still have hot flashes, fogging brain, but now have been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia which I think will be like being in menopause for the rest of my life! :-) Not complaining, at least I have a reason for how I'm feeling and the prescription that my doctor put me on last week seems to really be helping. Speaking of Fibro & Meno Fog...I have just now taken the time to catch up on emails and now see that the date for this entry ended at the end of January...So I'm probably "a day late and a dollar short" as "they" say, but I'm continuing anyway....
Also, being the only caretaker of my elderly mom who has many...many...issues, I have allowed this along with the stress of work and other home problems to become my main focus with myself running terribly behind in the last place. Though I've tried at times to watch my hair, makeup and clothes to look my best, I could count on one hand the days that has actually occured.
Anyway, I'm sure there are many women in the same situation as me, but I wanted to enter my name in the running just in case I got lucky!

I want a menopause makeover because I need help with being healthy and the best i can be over 50 ! Single mom, 4 kids, I am last on the list of those to care for.
February 02, 2013 at 04:39 pm
Well, I've been through Menopause in my 50's and have noticed how hard it is to shake the fat. I've accumulated a spare tire on my tummy and deposited more on the back of my arms and thighs. It would be great to move it in the right direction. The book, yoga and cooling component would come in handy. I've already taken up more exercise and joined a walking group with trainers in January. My half marathon is scheduled for May and the pedometer I'm wearing tracks calories burned, active time, steps and miles daily.
February 02, 2013 at 02:58 pm
At 65 I can use all the help I can get. Oh just to turn back the hands of time

Hi,
My name is Bernadette Jarosz and I am a mother of triplets and a military wife. Two years ago while my husband was deployed I had to have an emergency hysterectomy and was forced into menopause. Since then, I have not been able to get my weight skin, and hair issues under control. We have also moved twice since then and that additional stress has been difficult. I would appreciate the opportunity to to talk to Staness, and receive her guidance and advice. I am ready to move forward to a better place, and need some help from the experts to pinpoint my issues.
my best, Bernadette

I am too young, 55, to feel this old due to something that I have to go through. I want to remake my life to enjoy the rest of my life. I want my zest for life back.
February 01, 2013 at 11:51 am
I have gained 60 since i started into menapause. I have 2 grandkids now and I feel old sometimes. and I try to keep myself up. Im the one that it really makes me mad that I am getting older and I want to fight it like HELL!!!!!
February 01, 2013 at 11:46 am
I feel my body is in a transition and I need to update my style to transition along with it!!
February 01, 2013 at 10:36 am
I am Oh! so ready for the new me!
February 01, 2013 at 03:44 am
I would love the makeover for many reasons, but will you give you a few at the top. I definitely have the belly weight, and all-over weight gain, that I cannot seem to lose. The hot flashes and soaking of clothes is just miserable! I can't remember the last good night of sleep that I received and everyone close to me sure thinks I'm moody (let alone an element of depression)! It seems like I have tried everything with no good results, so this would be an answer to a prayer. Thank you very much, Susan
February 01, 2013 at 01:49 am
I've been going through menopause for about 6 or 7 years, the hot flashes all the time no matter where I'm at. It's so embarrassing. I've gained so much weight and have tried everything to loose it and can't. My whole body just feels drained completely. No energy. I'm so ready to be the woman I was before menopause. Please help me to win this gift . I really need it so bad. I'd love to feel and look good for my husband again. I'm sure he would love it too. It breaks my heart to be heavy and have to let my husband see me. I don't want to go any where because I know people will say oh my what happened to Rose she used to be so slim and pretty :(
January 31, 2013 at 07:33 pm
Almost every article regarding a "makeover'' seems to be aimed at younger women, so that's all I know. And guess what? IT DOESN'T WORK ANYMORE! I don't know what I'm supposed to do to look good. How am I to dress? How am I to wear makeup? How do I cope with a fat middle and a weight gain of 30lbs. when all I'd ever known was being skinny! I don't like this. I need help and some motivation.
January 31, 2013 at 06:16 pm
I want a Menopause Makeover because am 54 and having a bit of a drama coping with menopause. I'm always irritated by things around me, hacing hot flashes.I just need to know what's happening on this stage.By the way I also have a seven year old daughter. She is Gorgeous! and I want her to feel that am still fab and fit for her.
January 31, 2013 at 04:23 pm
I'm 52 and never had to watch my weight but now I see the weight going to my mid section. Unheard of, I know! ;) I would appreciate help in diet and exercise where I can feel good about my aging body but not become obsessed about it.
January 31, 2013 at 03:21 pm
I would love to have a Menopause makeover, actually any makeover would be greatly appreciated. I am going to be 53 on Aug.6, 2013 and I have been wearing the same hair do and the same clothes for a really long time. Time has flown by. I don't feel like I am 53....but I guess maybe my "style" reflects my age. I just don't know how to dress like a middle aged lady, just writing that was an eye opener.
Thank you for your consideration!

January 31, 2013 at 02:48 pm
I've gone through menopause, I sitll have some symptoms occassionally, am active, excercising regularly, watch what I eat but still can't seem to lose the gut (I'm losing everywhere else!) and am wondering if this program could help. I gained 20 lbs when I broke my foot (working out!) and have lost 9 of that, but this is slow going to watch your bust, underbust and hips diminish, yet the belly stays on.
January 31, 2013 at 02:00 pm
I have lost over 130lbs without surgery. I lost it with diet and exercise. I would like the menopause makeover to help me with the last sixty pounds, to help me deal with the saggy places and to help me learn the best ways to dress the " new me"
January 31, 2013 at 01:10 pm
I would love love love to win this! Please pick me!
January 31, 2013 at 12:43 pm

January 31, 2013 at 10:07 am
I would looovvvveee to feel a bit more like in my modeling years during my thirties :). I have and I am attacking the aging process from all angels as allergies, gluten sensitivities and slight hormone changes have stepped in making it all a steep uphill battle. I exercise, sweat and detox. I love and so enjoy the workout I'm getting in my organic vegetable garden as well. I adore the mountains skiing and hiking. I adore our grandchildren and spent much active time with them. Still I know I could greatly benefit from your professional help.
I would looovvveee the chance of a Menopause Makeover !!!

January 31, 2013 at 01:32 am
I feel like drab. The coloring on my face doesn't match my persona. My clothes don't quite fit. Seems that I will have to rebuild my makeup from ground up, but I don't know where to begin. I just feel old. I need a mens makeover because I need a third eye's perspective. Something fresh and I won't mind someone telling me how to change for once.
January 30, 2013 at 11:05 pm
Where to begin... day & night sweats, insomnia, weight gain, ect...
January 30, 2013 at 09:58 pm
i need a makeover because the last year plus has been taxing mentally, emotionally and financially. I've been caregiving to my husband, working full time and handling his seven surgeries and really not taking care of myself at all. My focus as been on my husband and daughter, where it needed to be. But the stress shows on me now - my skin, my hair, my body are all showing signs of stress, not to mention going through the stress of change of life as a 51 year old woman. I need help.
January 30, 2013 at 08:39 pm
I want/need the menopause makeover, and the reason is I'm so tired of being tired and not gettting a full nights rest due to sweating.
January 30, 2013 at 08:11 pm
I am over 100 pounds overweight and can't seem to get a grip on it. For my health, my husband, and my sons, I would love to win this makeover.
January 30, 2013 at 06:50 pm
Really need to fell better physically +! Trying to take care of me, instead of putting myself last, for good health and metal boost.
January 30, 2013 at 06:49 pm
need it, need it now!
January 30, 2013 at 02:48 pm
I have been trying to get a makeover for a few months just to make myself feel better and healthier. The mood swings and hot flashes have been challenging and any help for these two issues would be welcome!
January 30, 2013 at 01:11 pm
I want a Menopause Makeover because, this is a new challenging change in my life and my body and mind.. I need help and guidance right now.. I do not have work insurance to see the doctor and I'm divorced with no help. I'm thankful for temp job just to pay the bills. I would be grateful to have a Menopause Makeover.. Thank You.
January 30, 2013 at 12:59 pm
great!
January 30, 2013 at 12:36 pm
HELP, the hot flashes have arrived! I've been working out for a few weeks and have gained 4 pounds. I drink water, water water, and want a root beer float or a very large glass of wine!
HELP!!!
January 30, 2013 at 12:32 pm
Because I read the Menapause Makeover and have made it my way of life. I am 47 and started Menapause a tad early due to Breast Cancer and Chemo treatments. I LOVE the whole philosophy and way of life that the Menopause Makeover has taught me. I told my doctors about it too when they asked how I have become SO much healthier!!
Please consider me! I would be HONORED!!!
love,

I'd love to feel "great" again......everyone should want to feel and look their best....
January 30, 2013 at 11:26 am
I was diagnosed with cervical cancer after my annual PAP smear. I had 3 surgeries in 5 months. I suffer from hot flashes, lack of libido, and have gained 25 pounds in the year since surgery. Please help me! I want tone healthy and happy again!
January 30, 2013 at 11:22 am
I want a Menopause Makeover to help lessen the pain, suffering from night sweats, ongoing hot-flashes, headaches, constant "bad hair" days, while working full time, trying to continue school toward my Baccalaurette degree goals to earn more money to support me and my family of a young (unemployed) adult female and a high school senior male, striving for college acceptance and funding, along with dealing with symptoms of a chronic ailment as a single mother while trying to sustain our family dog. I know that was a long sentence, but I felt it best expressed how it feels (all-at-once).
January 30, 2013 at 08:39 am
I would love to have this makeover. I am in a public job that a makeover would greatly help me!
Thanks
January 30, 2013 at 08:01 am
I think I'm at the age where a professional opinion of how I could look and feel better could be good. ;-) x
January 30, 2013 at 06:52 am
I haven't felt good about myself in a long, long time. Hot flashes for the last 5 years and chills afterwards. I can't lose weight, it just hangs on no matter how I change my diet. And the usual facial wrinkles are present with some roseacea. I just want to feel good about myself again and I'm 59 years old. All I use to hear in my younger years were how pretty and attractive I was and I felt it, now it just seems to be all gone for good. Help me feel and look good once again. PLEASE!!!!!!! Deborah
January 30, 2013 at 06:33 am
I have recently made it through a decade of major life stressers. During that time I let my health and my appearance go. I am just beginning to address those issues. I want to be the best I can be for my husband, children, grandchildren and especially for myself.
January 30, 2013 at 03:04 am
So need this! Just what my hormones need!
January 30, 2013 at 02:19 am
I really need a job and being overweight is being held against me when I apply for jobs.

I want a Menopause Makeover because I'm looking way to old to be just 51 years old. I'm the Mom to eight. I'm always helping out my children and don't give myself enough attention on my own.
January 30, 2013 at 01:00 am
I'm beginning to feel that life is over-I want to enjoy each day not just get through it.
January 30, 2013 at 12:45 am
I would like a menopause makeover because it seems as if once I turned 42, my body turned against me. I gained weight (20 lbs) even though my neither my diet or activity level changed. I actually had been eating healthier and moving more. I'm losing hair, sleeping poorly, lethargic...I cannot seem to lose the weight no matter what I do...I want to get a handle on this now on just my 2nd year into menopause...because I know I have a few ahead of me...and I'd like to love my life again!
January 30, 2013 at 12:44 am
to ending up in better shape
January 30, 2013 at 12:29 am
I would love to win the Menopause Makeover. I just lost my only son that passed away on June 9, 2012. I would love to have a total makeover.
January 30, 2013 at 12:05 am
I am 52, single and frumpy. My 30 year old daughter is a dance and fitness instructor. She is a beautiful woman, graceful and confident. What a wonderful change it would be - to walk beside her, as the older version!
January 29, 2013 at 11:43 pm
I can use some hints and help, to stay comfortable and healthy in this new phase of my life. Thank you
January 29, 2013 at 11:30 pm
This prize would hopefully transform me from angry fat demon from hell to a happier thinner version of an actual human being.
January 29, 2013 at 11:22 pm
To rock the outer self just one more time. I want to feel good and get that one male lookover as I walk by at age 63
January 29, 2013 at 11:17 pm
I'm honestly sick and tired of feeling sick and tired. I detest the way I feel and look. I have 3 kids and a husband and would like to feel that I can keep up with them. I really need to change and lose weight. Hot flashes also really need to go! UGH!
January 29, 2013 at 10:59 pm
I just turned 39 and began having night sweats. I am freaking out.
January 29, 2013 at 10:53 pm
i think it would benefit me in the future
January 29, 2013 at 10:51 pm
So I can get back to feeling good about myself.......!
January 29, 2013 at 10:50 pm
I was in really great shape when I was younger. Now, I'm just feeling frumpy and unattractive. I need a boost. I found a whisker on my chin in my rear view mirror! Horrified, I went home and put 100 watt light bulbs in my bathroom. It's all just so depressing. I've recently taken up yoga and fruit smoothies but I feel like I should really be doing more.
January 29, 2013 at 10:35 pm
It's full of products and a book that were previously new to me. After I read about them, they make sense!This was a thoughtful, well put together package.
January 29, 2013 at 10:33 pm
I am a Mother of a great Younger Husband and a 16 year old Son and I can not get this weight off and tired of all the hot flashes
January 29, 2013 at 10:31 pm
Because, I want to enter that stage of my life mentally, educated, spiritually and most importantly physically prepared !! I want to be like Jane Fonda!!!
January 29, 2013 at 10:18 pm
Want to get rid of this menopausal jelly belly......
January 29, 2013 at 10:13 pm
I live in Florida. Having hot flashes here is a whole new ballgame! I have the book (excellent!) on my Kindle and love the advice. Coaching would be just awesome!
January 29, 2013 at 10:07 pm
This was made for me!
January 29, 2013 at 10:05 pm
I joined a fitness center end of February of 2012. I worked out hard for 5-6 days a week an hour a day. I am 58 years old and still overweight and flabby. I look younger than I am which I think is from too much estrogen. I've had estrogen dependent breast cancer 3 times and no longer have breasts, uterus or ovaries. I believe I am leptin resistant and cannot lose weight. I am 5'4" and weigh 155-160 lbs and am pear shaped. Last year I took muscle building protein powders and still could not build muscle. I believe the health issues of cancer have weakened my muscles and bones.
January 29, 2013 at 10:05 pm
This is made for me!
January 29, 2013 at 10:02 pm
Because I think these items would make me feel better when I have a hot flash and sex. Thanks for having this contest.
January 29, 2013 at 10:02 pm
Im 53 yrs. old and my mother-in-law has lived with us for my entire married life, 27 years. I deserve a makeover.
January 29, 2013 at 09:57 pm
I've gotten flabby and floppy in my older (60+) age. I need some help.
January 29, 2013 at 09:50 pm
Menopause changed who I am and I want to transform forward into the best i can be - that is with your help - Thank You !
January 29, 2013 at 09:39 pm
After a complete hysterectomy at age 28, I have been battling with menopausal symptoms for the past 10 years and I am just about at the end of my rope.
January 29, 2013 at 09:34 pm
I am living in hell. I am so, so tired all the time. The night sweats keep me up at night. Hot flashes during the day. I can't stand to wear a lot of clothes. Way to warm. But worst of all I am drying up and and beginning to look like a prune. My hair snaps when I walk (dull and lifeless like I have become), skin is so dry my pillow cases leave lines on my face, but the worst part for me is vaginal dryness. My husband and I used to have great sex, but now I am never in the mood nor do I even want to try as it is to painful. Help! I'm to young for this. I try to stay fit with Zumba classes but am still turning into a pear everything seems to stay in the middle. Would do anything to be forever young and start living again.
Thank you for giving me a chance to have my life back again.
Charmaine :)
January 29, 2013 at 09:30 pm
I would give anything for this makeover. I feel like I've aged 10 years in the last 6 months.
January 29, 2013 at 09:30 pm
I am in desperate need of a Menopause Makeover, I turned 50 and feel "yucky" not at all like myself. Please help, please.
January 29, 2013 at 09:22 pm
At my wonderful age I've finally realized what it means to be fully alive - such a shame that some parts of my body have followed the path of least resistance - no matter what i've tried. I should love to bring my body up to the level of my mind so we can create and enjoy what time remains. lol
January 29, 2013 at 09:19 pm
Menpause? More like menoSTOP DEAD IN MY TRACKS! I'm tired, sluggish, sleepless, bloated and achy. Sounds like the adult woman's version of the 7 dwarves! I need help!
Thanks!
January 29, 2013 at 09:14 pm
After having put on excess weight, along with the inability to exercise due to some injuries I have become so dissatisfied with myself and unhappy. Trying to watch what I eat and get back into exercising to feel better. I just want to look GOOD for my age!
January 29, 2013 at 09:11 pm
I just got on my WII fit to find I weigh the most I have in 5 years. My hair is thinning on one side and breaking off. There was a time when everyone said how young I looked, but not anymore. I am 55 and still like to go to rock concerts,slide down water slides and have just plain fun. Please help me look and feel energetic enough to keep going strong.
January 29, 2013 at 09:07 pm
At 52 I am about to go through menopause. I have the dry skin, dry hair, weight gain around the belly, night sweats and insomnia, you name it! I can use the help getting through the journey!
January 29, 2013 at 09:06 pm
This would be absolutely amazing! I would love this because I am in need of a makeover. Life and two kids has led me to neglect myself and its time to get back in to life! Thanks so much for the chance!
January 29, 2013 at 08:50 pm
Well this is it... my last chance all I can say is I hope all my Stars are lucky to win the Menopause Makeover!!
January 29, 2013 at 08:46 pm
My premenopause ways of staying in shape are not necessarily working anymore. I want advice on how to get back into shape with my new, slower motabolism.
January 29, 2013 at 08:36 pm
i would love to win something new have not had anything new in 2 years and i have gained weight too
January 29, 2013 at 08:32 pm
Wow ..... this would be awesome!
January 29, 2013 at 08:31 pm
i would love to win something new. i have not had anything new 2 years. have gained weight would love to lose it
January 29, 2013 at 08:30 pm
I am 53 yrs old and feel unatractive and am out of shape. I have started a walking program but find it so difficult to eat right and loose weight. I dress frumpy because nothing fits right. I want to be healthy and feel healthy and look healthy!
January 29, 2013 at 08:28 pm
i am 72 and i am overdue.
January 29, 2013 at 08:27 pm
i want a menopause makeover because i would love to be madeover
January 29, 2013 at 08:22 pm
I have all of the menopause symptoms that mix in with my other health issues. I am at the end of my ropes and need help to improve my quality of life.
January 29, 2013 at 08:19 pm
I want to feel better and look vibrant.
January 29, 2013 at 08:15 pm
I'm 54 and struggling with menopause. I feel no matter how hard I try I just can't get the weight off. I work long hours so not much time for a social life or the gym. I'm ready to get serious about my health and my appearance. Who knows? Mr. Right may show up just in time!
January 29, 2013 at 08:13 pm
I have hot flashes and gained 45 pounds. I'm grouchy, touchy, and cry at the drop of a hat. If there is anything out there to make me feel better about myself, let me at it.
January 29, 2013 at 08:10 pm
I have always looked younger than my age, and felt sexy. When I went through menopause that came to a screeching halt. Everything about me has changed and I can't seem to find my place in this new age. Donna
January 29, 2013 at 07:45 pm
I need help! About 5 years ago I lost 120 pounds. Over the last year the weight has started to creep back on. Currently I am up about 38 pounds and am having a lot of trouble getting it back off. I will be fifty-seven next week and just starting to date after a late life divorce. I have noticed that my confidence has been shot since I have gained weight . Mood swings , night sweats, and loss of elderly parents have all happened at about the same time. I am hoping a MMO (menopause makeover) would help me.
January 29, 2013 at 07:44 pm
I don't seem to be "aging gracefully." I look in the mirror and hate what I see. I am at least 70 pounds over weight and I feel that it not only effects my appearance, but my health and stamina also.
Recently our 2 1/2 year old grandson has come to live with us and we are seeking guardianship of him. I want to be able to run and play with him as I did with my kids, but because of the extra pounds and my overall unhealthy body I get out of breath easily, suffer from hot flashes and constantly feel tired.
I need guidance on how to take back control and to not have menopause control me....help!
January 29, 2013 at 07:43 pm
I have this book and it has been such an inspiration!!! Gaining 15 pounds in 3 months last year was the most frustrating obstacle in my life and Staness was right on with all of her experiences. I'd love to spend time with her. She really has done her research! It was amazing to find other women that were having the same symptoms and I completely changed my diet and exercise. When she says the best shape of her life, she is so right. I have never worked so hard and felt so empowered.
January 29, 2013 at 07:42 pm
During menopause it is more difficult to stay healthy and as beautiful as when I was 20. I agree that the inner beauty, the beauty of soul is more important, but I would'n like to look like a wrinkled apple at all. I would be surprised to be the winner but I believe in my lucky star, and I let myself to have chance:)
January 29, 2013 at 07:41 pm
I will just simply say, I DESERVE IT! i put everyone always first and neglect myself.
I would treasure this makeover:)
January 29, 2013 at 07:25 pm
Because I need to feel better about myself and would like to cut a few years off my looks.
January 29, 2013 at 07:16 pm
I am 50 but feel like I am in my 30s. After I had my son, 21 years ago, I started to eat three meals (and sometimes snacks) and developed a sweet tooth. We all know what that can result in and at this time I weigh about 20 - 25 pounds more than I believe I should. I have extremely high cholesterol (at least the last time I talked with doctor it was although she didn't tell me my numbers). I have arthritis in my left knee which makes running and walking on the road difficult. I need to start taking care of myself and it needs to start somewhere. I look in the mirror and don't see a beautiful person. I started experiencing early onset menopauseymptoms in my late 30s early 40s.
January 29, 2013 at 07:12 pm
i want to look better and feel better
January 29, 2013 at 07:10 pm
My 50's have been a very interesting time! Some good but a lot of not so good. I have reached a sticking point in my life and it's so much harder to get motivated at 58 than at 28! Or 38! or even 48. I lost my job in August 2012 and was replaced by 2 temps with no insurance. I've since settled with the company in a wrongful termination suit but can't bring myself to get busy looking for a new job. I suffer from severe deperession, anxiety disorder, fibromyalgia and OCD and it's seriously hard to even leave the house sometimes! I have no living family and no friends because of my mental health issues.
I need this to get motivated to start the rest of my life. I feel so much younger than I am and would love to look the part. I've gained so much weight since I've been not working because I stay in bed most of the time due to the depression being so oppressive. I have let my hair grow down my back but it's in need of some serious styling. I love the color it is though .. silvery gray. I know if I won this, I could get the boost I so desperately need to get out and get back to the world!
January 29, 2013 at 06:58 pm
I want to feel and look like, an older yet still saucy version of me!
Back in the day, I was a top notch college student and part-time runway model. Fast forward, I am a thirty four year veteran Middle school and High School teacher, married & mother of one; a twenty five year old awesome son.
I show respect and compassionate everyday teaching Reading at the High School level. I love what I do. I would like to feel rejuvenated, and reclaim my inner beauty to reflect more outward beauty, even just for me. I would enjoy a makeover to indulge myself and to lure my spunkiness back.
January 29, 2013 at 06:52 pm
A local lawyer just died. He hadn't been taking on felonies because of his advanced age. He was 67. I'm 66.
January 29, 2013 at 06:46 pm
Desperate.Hormones,bah,antidepressants,bah.
January 29, 2013 at 06:23 pm
I have begun to lose weight, but it is coming off in all the wrong places!!! I NEED HELP!!! Why is my middle sooooo thick!!!! HELP!!!
January 29, 2013 at 06:18 pm
need to get a hold on these hot flashes and return to making love
January 29, 2013 at 06:13 pm
I want to be able to sleep through out the night
January 29, 2013 at 06:08 pm
I would love to have a Menopause Makeover to lift my spirit. I have been married twice and have a set of Twin Boys that are 24. When I was 40 I fell and had ot have back surgery. The back surgery did not heal well, thus I have to take alot of medicine. No one understands why I take it. Even my children tell me to take my medicine in the bathroom, so that their friends will not see me take it, I, at this point have low self esteem and would like for a professional to scoop me up and perk me up. I feel the change in my emotional limitaions from the medication has put a damper on what I could be. I am able to physically able to get around fiine, I just have my limitations and need to relax when called for.
January 29, 2013 at 05:47 pm
I am feeling old and drab and incredibly tired, especially in the winter months. I need to be rejuvenated, have my energy boosted, and the makeover will help me get back on track. After four years of divorce proceedings, that stage of my life is finally over. Now is my chance to do something positive for myself. Thank you for considering my entry!
January 29, 2013 at 05:41 pm
I think the menopause makeover might help me replace the much needed energy I lack right now, Maybe it has nutrients that will help my skin feel less pasty and rejuvenate my body. I'M not expecting a whole lot am I? (SMILE)But,honestly ,just thinking about ithe makeover gave me a better state of mind!
January 29, 2013 at 05:32 pm
I wandered into this FOF newletter/blog and found the Menopause MakeOver book recommended. I immediately went to the bookstore and bought it! I would love a menopause makeover to kick start this part of my life. I have been plagued with hot-flashes and night sweats and I'm ready to take control!!
Thank you!
January 29, 2013 at 05:19 pm
I would like to look my best for my daughter's wedding. People I haven't seen since my early twenties will attend and i would like to look my best, nut especially for my daughter.

January 29, 2013 at 04:58 pm
can't sleep too HOT.Can't figure out where this weight gain is coming from,but then again too hot to sleep so to tired to workout feel like a frumpy old lady at 52
January 29, 2013 at 04:55 pm
I'm just not the go-getter I used to be. This menopause sucks!
January 29, 2013 at 04:52 pm
I am at the "cusp of the changes" and sure could use some support making it through this challenging life process!
January 29, 2013 at 04:46 pm
I'm now 60 yrs old and have been experiencing weight gain and hot flashes for 7 years! My skin has changed, my hair has changed - It's as if I fast forwarded the aging process. Menopause entered my life and took over. I very much want to feel good about myself again. This makeover just might do that for me. I hope I win.
January 29, 2013 at 04:30 pm
I used to look good...I am now 66, and feel I am on a FAST downward slide....I feel Great mentally etc...would like the outside me to match closer to the inside me......PLEASE HELP !!
January 29, 2013 at 04:27 pm
I have gone into menopause and I don't have anyone I can talk to. My Mom passed two years ago and that's about the time I started. Between that and Mom's death I was very depressed and just plain numb. I need to get my life back. I need help with getting back to where I was before.
January 29, 2013 at 04:20 pm
After going through a divorce at 41 years old and slamming into menopause 2 years later I was devasted both emotionally and physically. At a time when I needed to feel and look my best I was suddenly battling all the evils of menopause. The mood swings and weight gain were so hard to handle and I just felt invisible when I walked into a room. I really would
appreciate a makeover! I just turned 50 this month and I could really use some help to face the next decade of my life.
Thanking you for your consideration.
January 29, 2013 at 04:15 pm
i need one.
January 29, 2013 at 04:10 pm
I need this terribly! I feel like I'm 20 but reality is I'm not anymore
January 29, 2013 at 04:09 pm
At this stage of the game, every little bit helps.
January 29, 2013 at 04:03 pm
I want to see if I can look even better than I look now.
January 29, 2013 at 03:48 pm
The years have taken a toll. Busy with working and raising my family, I now realize how much I have put myself "on the back burner". I am READY to do for me!
January 29, 2013 at 03:45 pm
I need a Menopause makeover right now. I need to lose weight, feel better and make changes for the better. Kids are grown and I am now a Grandma and don't feel like I need to look & feel like one.
January 29, 2013 at 03:45 pm
After 30 years living separate lives my soul mate, true love, best friend and I reunited in September we were married January 11th and he has been there for me even through the sickness and hospitalizations he has held my hand cried with me and prayed with me and now that I am better it is time for me to do something for me and him and get fit and healthier.
January 29, 2013 at 03:40 pm
A menopause makeover would be wonderful, I am at the stage in my life were I have learned with the help of therapy and self exploration that I have dedicated so much time to others to the detriment of myself. There are times that I feel like my body is having a Coup De Etat and I am worried that I may be on the verge of becoming jaded and bitter, having something just for me with long term physical effects would provide a new foundation as I go forward with the new mental image of me that I have created and believe in, and I am sure would result in a positive change for myself and those around me who I love so dearly.
January 29, 2013 at 03:40 pm
I am just entering the menopause stage, I've noticed small hot flashes have started, but I take vitamins, eat smart and exercise. I just can't seem to get those last pounds off and when I look in the mirror it doesn't look to me like I'm getting anything accomplished...
January 29, 2013 at 03:33 pm
Boy oh boy...I have been on a downward spiral for the last 4 years...I lost my job, my brother died, 2 years before that my sister died. I haven't been able to find a gig..I have gained 30 lbs. my self esteem left and I can't seem to find it. I have no desire or passion. I cry and though my life has been tough..I have 3 beautiful grandsons..I think this makeover would allow my head and heart to start digging inside me and find the me I know is there. I don't have a deadly disease, I am blessed but depression can be a killer inside of yourself. Everyday I have to allow laughter and memories to get me through to the next day. Thank you, God bless.
January 29, 2013 at 03:31 pm
So I can feel sexy again!!!
January 29, 2013 at 03:23 pm
After 50 I seem to be falling apart. I work in a high stress job and have not taken any "me" time due to overextending myself . The old adage: " Do as I say, not as I do" applies to me. I have dealt with crisis after crisis and am truly burned out.
January 29, 2013 at 03:17 pm
I was a single mother from the age of 17. My son graduated in 1995 and I remember crying because he went into the Army and I had no idea how to be myself. Every time I learned something new on the computer - he would say "you're growing up!". Fast forward to now, I am 52 (53 in March) and am finally on track to being the person I want to be. Writing books, learning myself - its funny the things we forget about ourselves when we are taking care of others. I remember when my periods stopped and I thought YAY 4 ME!!! Now, I have sarcoidosis - eyes not lungs, losing my hair, and still trying to be fabulous (wigs have come a long way). Still enjoying the journey to me!!
January 29, 2013 at 03:04 pm
I really, really need this.
January 29, 2013 at 02:57 pm
I'm in such desparate need of a makeover, I'd love to win this opportunity.
January 29, 2013 at 02:49 pm
At 56 my stubborn meno-pot just won't go away no matter how much I walk and watch what I eat> I guess I need someone to "crack the whip" to get me moving and back into shape. Unfortunately, on my salary a personal trainer if totally unaffordable, so I could really use this opportunity... Thanks!
January 29, 2013 at 02:46 pm
I'm in the public spotlight, and being the best FOF I can be is inspiring!
January 29, 2013 at 02:44 pm
i am over 50 and only for the last few years have i started to look my age. i need to lose 10 to 15 lbs, and because of that i feel old and in need of some reason to start taking care of myself. i need self esteem and the confidence that i use to have. thans
January 29, 2013 at 02:44 pm
I would love to win the Menopause Makeover because I just started Menopause and I need help. I have really bad hot flashes.
January 29, 2013 at 02:42 pm
I need more than just a menopause make over!!!!!!!!
January 29, 2013 at 02:41 pm
Turning 55 with an 11 year old son in tow. Need lots of energy and style to fit in with moms of my son's friends!
January 29, 2013 at 02:29 pm
I am over 50 and I like to "refresh" my physical appearance
January 29, 2013 at 02:23 pm
This Makeover would be a HUGE blessing! I struggled through the past year attempting my own "makeover" with very limited success. I DID lose 35 lbs (I need to lose about 55 more!). In this same year my 2 very best friends in the world passed away (aged 48 & 55), my mom and my mother-in-law died AND I celebrated my 20th wedding anniversary to my beloved husband (& remaining best friend). It's been a most difficult year but it has reinforced my commitment to being a better me and living a fuller life... I just need HELP!
January 29, 2013 at 02:18 pm
I'd like to spend the next half of my life renewed and reinvigorated.
January 29, 2013 at 02:13 pm
Because it is a hard time in your life, at least for some. It has hit pretty hard in a early way for me. The jacket on and off the fan on and off, the mood swings, the not understanding that you are really not dieing and it will all pass, it's just life changing! The Heart flutters, the lack of sex drive, it is the end of the world, or sure feels like it. So to be able to put it all behind and to do something for me would be the ultimate ( Flash coming hold one moment, must remove jacket and turn on fan ) Ok I am back. It would just be what it take to forget about it and move on! Maybe it is all in our heads and we just need this way out! Either way, someone is in need of this wonderful makeover!
January 29, 2013 at 02:06 pm
I need a makeover!
January 29, 2013 at 02:04 pm
A fresher face, style and energy!

Turning 50 has jolted me in so many ways. Menopause Makeover would be perfect.
January 29, 2013 at 02:04 pm
I am almost 60 years old and I am on a diet. So I would really benefit from this! I sure could use a lift! I want my waistline back so much!
January 29, 2013 at 02:03 pm
I would love to win a Menopause Makeover because for about the last year or so I have been unable to work and
have been very stressed from this and thus have not taken as good care of myself as i probably should. I just had a birthday and I coud use a little heklp in dealing with my menopause too!
January 29, 2013 at 02:02 pm
After all I've been through last year I could use this makeover. My mother died in January. I completed chemo in July 2012. Don't feel bad for me, its just a test from God. Miss my mom and if she saw me this big she would say, "I was never your size when I was your age." I always laughed when she said that. hahahaha And chemo, I sure missed out on that chemo diet I heard so much about. Not to mention I had also quit smoking just before being diagnosed. that I heard was an instant 25lbs. I got sick during chemo but not too violent. But I gained 50lbs!!! My doctor said he would rather my gain than lose, but if you could see my body now, trust me a bit/lot of loss would not hurt.
I've started to work out; cut back on intake of calories, but I'm sure you can do a better job than I.
Ooh, I would sure love to win a makover.
January 29, 2013 at 02:01 pm
I'm 56 and can't get rid of my belly fat no matter what I try.

I hit full blown menopause just after my 39th birthday. So unfair...
January 29, 2013 at 01:43 pm
The new year means that it's time for a new plan. The current one I've been following that includes a sensible diet and regular exercise isn't working. There are enough sad stories in this forum so I won't add mine but I feel....as we all do....that I deserve to be happy, healthy and get the old good parts of myself back while getting rid of the new bad ones. I would like to do all I can to make what remains of my life to be the best it can be. I would love to get this makeover.
January 29, 2013 at 01:42 pm
I need all the make over that I can get!
January 29, 2013 at 01:40 pm
I am 63 and have been struggling with my weight for the past few years. I actually lost 30 pounds last year and was very proud of myself but I gained it all back....quickly.
I watched my mother never leave the house because she was always waiting to lose weight. She died at 63 as a result of a lifetime of yo-yo dieting (only deli roast chicken in the house) and bad choices. I do not want to follow in her footsteps.
I am compliant when given the right tools and I am not looking for a quick fix but a lifestyle change.
I don't want to feel invisible.
January 29, 2013 at 01:37 pm
Because I am 55 years old and have gained weight in the last few years and find it very difficult to lose it. I could really use some help in the whole menopause area :)
January 29, 2013 at 01:35 pm
this looks like a good giveaway make things easier
January 29, 2013 at 01:34 pm
Rapidly approaching 70 with a mind set of 35, I am starting to feel a bit behind the times. I am no longer working after a successful career as an executive assistant and years of being a caregiver to husband and parents, I feel I have been too busy to take care of "me" and want to be brought up to date on the the world around me!
January 29, 2013 at 01:25 pm
still working feel young and try to keep myself up but feel like i can do more
January 29, 2013 at 01:24 pm
A Menopause Makeover would be so welcome about now. Since Menopause started, I've gained weight, my hair is dry, my mood is horrible, my appetite is gone. I have no energy, it seems like I am just going thru the motions every day. I want to feel alive again, and be the fun wife my husband married 30 years ago. Please pick me!
January 29, 2013 at 01:23 pm
Because I need to lose some weight, take charge of my health and most of all, feel good for my age. I'm celebrating a milestoen birthday in March and want to be the best I can be.
January 29, 2013 at 01:16 pm
I would love a makeover
January 29, 2013 at 01:10 pm
I turn 55 this year and I'm determined to stabilize my post-menopausal weight once and for all through improved nutrition, consistent exercise and recreation, increased sleep, and satisfying social and family relationships based on a self-confident, high esteemed sense of self. My resolve and Lord willing! If I'm successful in winning the makeover, I know it will go a long way in helping me attain my goals.
January 29, 2013 at 01:07 pm
I need any help that I can get! I've tried every product that
I know of.
January 29, 2013 at 01:03 pm
not only is that time of life rolling around for me i live a very stressed filled life i care for my mama who had a major stroke she is bedfast so my life is hers i have alot going on in my life that like i would say most women do when it comes that time that i dont understand and i have nobody to talk to about it all the women in my life had to have there female parts taken out and most of them have passed away now i feel alone because i feel like no one understands what im going through with this change in my life i still have all my female parts unlike the others so to me they cant understand what its like it would be nice to win this and have someone that really knows just how i feel
January 29, 2013 at 01:01 pm
I want to feel and look like me again.
January 29, 2013 at 01:01 pm
BecUse I deserve to be fabulous!
January 29, 2013 at 12:58 pm
Why not?
January 29, 2013 at 12:57 pm
Lose weight
January 29, 2013 at 12:55 pm
I do not like the changes in my skin, my weight and my attitude since menopause. I need a makeover.
January 29, 2013 at 12:54 pm
I want my life back!
January 29, 2013 at 12:49 pm
I haven't changed my look in over 20 years, and it is about time to do so!
January 29, 2013 at 12:49 pm
I'm 52 and seem to have lost my ability to be excited about anything anymore. Seem to be just going through the motions of living and not truly enjoying life.
January 29, 2013 at 12:45 pm
I would like a make over as my skin is changing and I'm just not sure how to respond to the changes.I have been trying many different products and i just can't seem to get it right.It would help me figure out what is good for my scin and how i can make myself look better in these times of change thankyou.
January 29, 2013 at 12:43 pm
gosh i really need this
January 29, 2013 at 12:40 pm
I could really use some help. I'm entering my 2nd year of widowhood & not liking it one bit! I feel like I've been floundering for the past year. Alot of things fell by the wayside as I spent the previous 6 years as sole caregiver to my sweetheart & soulmate while working full-time: my exercise routine & eating properly, annual doctor appts. & tests, even keeping the house clean or organized on any regular basis -- "me-time" became non-existent! So many things I wanted to start doing again, but just haven't had the emotional, mental or physical wherewithal to do. I truly need a personal trainer to assist me in many aspects of my life. If I had to become his caregiver all over again, I'd do it in a heartbeat -- he was worth it! Without him now, I need to learn how to take care of myself again.
January 29, 2013 at 12:35 pm
I turned 59 on Friday and need to tone up plenty. I look OK in clothes but not sleeveless of shorts......
January 29, 2013 at 12:34 pm
I just really need some help to move the excess pounds.
January 29, 2013 at 12:27 pm
Because I am falling apart. My hair is thinning, my waist is thickening and I am having hot flashes in the frozen food aisle!
January 29, 2013 at 12:27 pm
because i need to get my happy back. I am lonely, feel unattractive and depressed. i need a major makeover. please help me with a new me. thank you
January 29, 2013 at 12:22 pm
I FEEL I'M ENTERING A NEW STAGE OF LIFE AND I WANT A NEW LOOK AND BODY.
January 29, 2013 at 12:18 pm
I would love to have a makeover because i have gained weight and have not had nothing new in over 3 years
January 29, 2013 at 12:13 pm
i really...really...really need it....enough said
January 29, 2013 at 12:13 pm
My husband passed away 5 years ago when I was 49 and slam in the middle of menopause. Between the stress of his illness/passing and the menopause, I have put on a lot of weight that I am struggling to control. Over the last year I am working hard at improving my diet (going more organic whole food) and overall health, but I've only managed to drop 10 pounds. I am ready to start dating again and am very self conscious about my weight. I am very young at heart and look younger than my age of 54, but need help to achieve my goals. I love life and want to live it to the fullest! I want to age as gracefully as I can and be as healthy as possible! I know the menopause makeover can help!
January 29, 2013 at 12:13 pm
I've been working hard but would a much needed professional boost!! Please! Por Favor! Sil vous plait!
January 29, 2013 at 12:11 pm
I'm 55 and have been on bioidentical hormones for 6 months. I decided to go this route because I understood that it was safer than going the synthetic route. My concern is that I may have to stay on these for ever. i'd like to look at other options or learn more about why this approach may be the best for me.
In addition, I feel tired and heavy at times. My body is changing and though I can accept the 5-10 lbs that I've gained, I'd like to feel better in my skin.
To me menapause is not just about our body, but also a soul journey.
January 29, 2013 at 12:10 pm
I know this is my second entry. If I win this wonderful Menopause Makeover will not be just benefitting myself. It will also benefit my wonderful group of friends" the BULLIES",
Blairstown's Unexpectedly Lovely Ladies in Exciting Situations". I would share knowledge and training tips with them and all the amazing things I will be learning. We are between the ages of 50 and 70. All married, most with chilfren, some grand children. We have a very busy year this year, 2 babies on the way and 1 wedding. Many showers to attend. What better way to look my best, our best , then with a Menopause Makeover. Please consider me, just think of how it will benefit all of us.
January 29, 2013 at 12:07 pm
I am having a horrible time with menopause and my doctor is not helping. I made an appointment with her to discuss the problems, but menopause got sidetracked due to the other health problems she found. I am having horrid drenching hot flashes, memory loss, terrible soaking night sweats, insomnia, weight gain - 80lbs is what I've gained so far, too, too much! I definitely need help. Now I am facing a series of surgeries due to the health problems they found including: rebuilding my neck again, removing some lumps in my left breast, problems with my heart, all the way down to surgeries for carpal tunnel in both arms, and oral surgery to fix some teeth. With all of this happening, I desperately need to lose the excess weight (I've never been this fat in my life before) and get menopause under control so that I can address the other problems and get my health, life, and spirit back. I know there are a lot of women out there facing some scary situations that make mine look very petty, and that does makes me feel selfish talking about myself. But I do need to be the best me that I can be, so that I may care for my family and help others as I am able to. With all of this, your course would benefit my life and future greatly! Thank you for your consideration and for a chance at enjoying sanity again.
January 29, 2013 at 12:01 pm
I have always exercised and watched what I ate. When menopause hit I hit a wall. I need help and guidance thru this difficult stage of life. I am 57 and do not want to be 60 & out of shape. Please help.
January 29, 2013 at 12:00 pm
I know I am 53... I don't feel 53... I certainly don't act 53....I really don't want to look 53.....it is just a number.. and I refuse to grow up..I see the incredible transfomation you can acheive.. I believe we all have this in us.. just some of us need a slight push.. and support.. thanks for this opportunity to help me become the best self I can be.
hopeing I win the menopause makeover!!! k :)
January 29, 2013 at 11:49 am
I am an ovarian cancer survivor. I was 35 at the time of my hysterectomy which threw me into early menopause. Now, at 52 years of age, I believe my body is freaking out and I have the return of menopause symptoms even though I'm on hormone therapy. I've gained weight over the past two years and just don't feel good about myself. I need help getting started on an exercise and healthy eating program. This would be a wonderful opportunity.
January 29, 2013 at 11:48 am
Why wouldn't I want it? I can deal with the extra facial hair- ugh, I can deal with the hot flashes-double ugh, but I feel like my body doesn't like me anymore! I'm one of those people who benefits from a little one on one education/encouragement. If I could learn how to best deal with metabolism and diet/exercise for this phase of my life I would feel a whole lot better about myself and my body and I could be friends again. : )
January 29, 2013 at 11:46 am
I want to say "bonjour" to my menopause changes!
January 29, 2013 at 11:41 am
I'm an avid exerciser, but I am not able to get rid of the weight in my belly which is very discouraging.
January 29, 2013 at 11:33 am
I'm sick of thie condition
January 29, 2013 at 11:33 am
Life got busy but now I'm ready!
January 29, 2013 at 11:31 am
I have worked my tail off trying to shed pounds. Fine doing that is a given it is the belly fat I can't get rid of.''I hate it....
January 29, 2013 at 11:30 am
This would be so great to win. At 59, I've been told I look 15 - 20 years younger. (I think some of those may be from people who need new eye glass prescriptions, but hey! I'll take any good someone brings my way!!) I would love to feel younger again and I know my weight gain I've allowed over the years is robbing me of that. Please help me feel as young as some I look! :)
January 29, 2013 at 11:30 am
because I am 55 and have menopause weight and sags from menopause!
January 29, 2013 at 11:30 am
Menopause has hit me hard both physically and emotionally the past year. I would love to feel (and look) like my old self again.
January 29, 2013 at 11:30 am
I have just turned 55 this month. I am carrying 20 extra pounds around my middle that I cannot take off, even with daily excercise and eating small portions. I need expert advice on how to get my health back and take this weight off. I have gone through menopause and that is when the weight went on. I lost my Mom after caring for her for 23 years and the extra weight I put on at that time of grieving combined with the menopause has taken my energy and I lost my ability to be more active due to the weight gain is making me tired and unhappy. I need a lifestyle change and the Menopause Makeover would be that change I hope to make in my life for my health. Thank YOu!!!!
January 29, 2013 at 11:29 am
WITH THE HELP AND ADVICE FROM STANESS (WHAT BEAUTY PILLS IS SHE TAKING?) AND THE GREAT GIFTS, I ACCEPT TO LEAVE BEHIND MY POST-MENOPAUSAL BLAH, BLAH, BLAH AND LIVE IN THE PRECIOUS MOMENT OF RADIANT BEAUTY AND FABULOUS HEALTH. LET'S CELEBRATE TODAY....
January 29, 2013 at 11:29 am
i have just recently been diagnosed with breast cancer and having surgery and then treatments to follow .So i will defenitley LOVE to win this MAKE OVER.
January 29, 2013 at 11:27 am
Men don't pause and neither do I!!!!!!
This makeover will prpovide the avenue to continue being the woman I have morphed into. From a shy adolescent to a mature and convident woman of the ages. At the age of 68 I advance along the aging continum to always look and be the best I can possibly be. Menopause doesn't mean stopping, but moving along at a steady and sure pace to enjoy the pleasures of life and living. Makeover or enhancement it is my time.
January 29, 2013 at 11:22 am
It's time for a new look, and I need someone to push me into it..
January 29, 2013 at 11:22 am
I exercise for 1 to 1 1/2 hours five time a week, eat right and "do everything" right, but continue to gain weight. I am 5'6" and 200 pounds. My usual weight was 130. What the hell happened?
January 29, 2013 at 11:21 am
I need a menopause make-over because I have tried for a couple years to jump start myself into the woman I was! Not the tired, weight around the middle, matronly-looking body I see in the mirror. I have it in me but need that one thing that will make the difference and somehow be the right focus that I need. I avoid so many clothes choices and dress way too "old" for me because of my middle. I have an athlete in me...I loved to run before...just so tired all the time. I don't sleep well at all so I am sure that is a big factor. I want to enjoy the rest of my life and be happy about myself. I could be such a better mom, wife, friend, neighbor, ....just everything if I could feel I had this in control! It would help me but help everyone around me, too, because I would be able to accomplish more and be more supportive of others!
January 29, 2013 at 11:17 am
I'm READY!! Ready to feel energetic; ready to feel sexy; ready to feel GOOD again!
January 29, 2013 at 11:16 am
I want to become the woman I once was before menopause. I want to feel sexy, in control, and to not have my hormones rule me. Lately I've been dealing with weight gain but most importantly with depression....this is not the true me....I need to find the fun loving, laughing, embracing woman I once was.
January 29, 2013 at 11:16 am
Have had some trying times and would like to start feeling good about myself again. For me and my family.
January 29, 2013 at 11:13 am
I would like to lose weight and get in shape.
January 29, 2013 at 11:11 am
I could surely use it!
January 29, 2013 at 11:09 am
I'm back in college after 25 years and need to be more fit
and attractive to get by in my classes!
January 29, 2013 at 11:04 am
I'm 55 and can really use one!!! I need a change and I feel
I deserve it.
January 29, 2013 at 11:01 am
I really could use a Menopause Makeover to help me feel better about myself. I work extremely long hours (12-14 hours a day) at a desk, in front of a computer, six days a week and have simply let myself go. I have gained over 100 pounds and get no exercise at all. I have feet problems, and now my left knee is bothering me. Fast food is all that is usually available, so my eating habits are awful. I am totally exhausted and have no energy whatsoever. I know my life is shortening, but I am lost! Please help me!
January 29, 2013 at 11:00 am
I want a Menopause Makeover so I can begin to fulfill my dreams of becoming the healthiest and sexiest me ever!
January 29, 2013 at 10:57 am
I WENT THROUGH MENOPAUSE AT 45 YEARS OLD. I HAVE COMPLETELY LOST ALL MY SEX APPEAL. IT IS VERY DEPRESSING:( SAGGY SKIN, MY BEAUTIFUL HAIR A DISASTER, MY STOMACH NOT NICE TO VIEW. HATE TO LOOK AT MYSELF AT ALL. I AM NOT LOOKING TO BE BARBIE, I A JUST WANTING TO HAVE HALF THE APPEAL I FELT BEFORE MENOPAUSE. HOT FLASHES AND MOOD SWINGS ARE A CHALLENGE IN IT SELF.
I WOULD BE HONORED TO HAVE THIS OPPORTUNITY.
THANKS.
January 29, 2013 at 10:57 am
I so need a menopause make over. After all it has taken over my life so I would like to 'take it over'. I could use the guidance of the experts and take back my body!! It seems whatever I've been doing is NOT WORKING!! Help me return my life back to normal ...please!! I'd be happy to put a 'pause' on the 'Mano '.....
January 29, 2013 at 10:55 am
My plan was to finally "do me" after raising two children, now 22 and 21. But after working for a company nearly twenty years, I find myself being unemployed. I am stressed and this belly fat from menopause cannot be conquered. My self esteem is at an all time low. My eating habits and feelings are all over the place. HELP!! I am job searching, and I need to be at my best and fittest especially at this time in my life. HELP!!! (oh, yeah I asked that)
January 29, 2013 at 10:54 am
How awesome would this be! I need a do-over :)
January 29, 2013 at 10:53 am
I need a menopause makeover because I'm hot!
January 29, 2013 at 10:52 am
I have paused in my life and have not been able to
get myself in gear again. I need a big push in the right direction and self confidence to let the real me out again.
January 29, 2013 at 10:52 am
How awesome would this be! I need a do-over :)
January 29, 2013 at 10:46 am
Everything is sagging -my boobs my face and even my belly! And my face needs color. As you can see I need a lot of help.
January 29, 2013 at 10:46 am
I've been going through menopause since I was 30 years old. I'm dry, hot and almost fat...I need all the help I can get. Pick me please:)
January 29, 2013 at 10:44 am
I just ALWAYS feel tired! I need a "pep me up" and this is it!!
January 29, 2013 at 10:43 am
I was thrown into menopause in my mid 40's. Tried a lot of medications and techniques to deal with the adverse effects of hysterectomy induced menopause.
January 29, 2013 at 10:43 am
I'm tired of being over weight! It is now causing health issues, my knees are shot, and I don't like to wear shorts. I'm an outside girl and it kills me to have to wear "old lady" clothes because I'm too big.
January 29, 2013 at 10:42 am
I just turned 50 and I want to take control of my life and look and feel good. Just because a person turns 50, we aren't dead! I need to lose about 15 pounds and I need some guidance in this area.
January 29, 2013 at 10:40 am
Since the age of fifty (now 57) everything seems to have stopped. I can't seem to get it together. I know this should be a fantastic time in my life, I want it to be.
I need help I have added: 10 pounds of belly fat, dryer skin,moodiness, no energy, stopped exercising HELP!!!!!!!
January 29, 2013 at 10:39 am
Because I want to be healthier heading to 60 then I was at 50
January 29, 2013 at 10:38 am
Because Menopause sucks! and does terrible things to your body and state of mind. A makeover will definitely help. Thanks
January 29, 2013 at 10:38 am
I want to feel better and live healthier!
January 29, 2013 at 10:38 am
I want to feel better about myself and my age.
January 29, 2013 at 10:35 am
I met my fiance when I was in my mid forties. He is 7 years younger. I was cute and sexy back then. Now I have turned into a middle aged blob where there is no definition between my waist, hips thighs..its just one big blob. I want to get back to the way I was and make me feel good about myself.
January 29, 2013 at 10:35 am
I want a Menopause Makeover because I want to look and feel the best I can at 62!
January 29, 2013 at 10:34 am
I would love to win this and finally lose this extra weight and be able to sleep through the night!
January 29, 2013 at 10:34 am
To feel and look good at fifty!
January 29, 2013 at 10:34 am
I need to lose weight!
January 29, 2013 at 10:32 am
I want a menopause makeover because I'm tired of feeling like this - yucky and HOT! I want my normal back.
January 29, 2013 at 10:31 am
I've dealt with hormonal issues for decades. I've battled on naturally and now at 51 would like to know as I enter menopause, I don't have to battle--but learn how to cope and live/love through it. I was recently diagnosed with adrenal fatigue so life is topsy turvy again.
Being normal seems to be a fantasy these days!
January 29, 2013 at 10:29 am
I've gotten a divorce, just had my 5th grandchild, I will be 60 next year and really want to do something for myself.
I'm not done with my career and would really like to find someone to spend the rest of my life with. I need a fresh start and this would give me that.
Thank you for considering me.
January 29, 2013 at 10:29 am
Ever since I went through Menopause, I can't lose the weight I gained in my mid-section. I always had a wash board stomach, and I can't even wear bikinis anymore because it's truly embarrassing to walk around with this stomach. I got extremely depressed over it, especially because my clothes don't fit, and I am on a fixed income and can't afford to buy new ones. I would do anything to have my flat stomach back again, and not be afraid to look into mirrors
January 29, 2013 at 10:27 am
Just became single again at 53 and am a single mother of a 12 year old. Money is sooo tight that I can't see pamper in my vocabulary for the next year or two. It's amazing how drab I am feeling at this point in my life. A makeover would shore up my slipping self confidence after the changes in my personal life along with the changes menopause has brought.
January 29, 2013 at 10:21 am
thank you for this chance
January 29, 2013 at 10:20 am
At 53 , I need all the help I can get to feel young again.
January 29, 2013 at 10:19 am
I need a change and this is my chance thanks
January 29, 2013 at 01:50 am
I am literally a hot mess who is 40 lbs overweight with a constant sheen of sweat from nonstop hot flashes and circles under my eyes from lack of sleep due to night sweats. While I am looking super pretty with all this going on, I also have apparently lost all ability to exercise patience and filter my comments. Of course, then I cry because I feel so guilty. My husband is one lucky guy to live with what he has termed my domestic terrorism. Help!
January 28, 2013 at 09:59 pm
Menopause is starting and I need help to handle it!

Recovering from a hysterectomy, I need a little makeover! lol
January 28, 2013 at 08:00 pm

January 28, 2013 at 07:44 pm
I need HELP!!!!
January 28, 2013 at 07:39 pm
I need all the help I can get!! What a fabulous way to glide into those golden years of menopause!!
January 28, 2013 at 05:51 pm
I'm so tired of being tired. I want to do the Menopause Makeover as the first step to empower me to make positive changes that will impact me first and then by family. The women in my family usually put themselves last and everybody eventually suffers. If I could be that role model to help break the vicious cycle, and inspire others that would be awesome. Of course becoming a more positive balanced and hopefully lighter person doesn't hurt either. :)
January 28, 2013 at 05:40 pm
Menopause has really made me feel old. I was 39 when I first starting with hot flashes. Here I am one month from 55 and yes, still getting them. The extra pounts that have found me are not welcome any longer. A bit of knowledge is supposed to go a long way, right?
January 28, 2013 at 05:06 pm
waiting to be a winner of something to try out.This would be a great one and boy do I need it before I loose all hope!
January 28, 2013 at 04:10 pm
I just can't stand the thought of giving in to the "Shlumpy" look that women get when they enter menopause. I'd rather never ever give in & be Fabulous!!!!
Look at Sophia Loren, in her late 70's 7 still gorgeous. Great role model for years to come.
Oh & Staness really rocks her body!!!
January 28, 2013 at 02:21 pm
Up until a couple of years ago, I did not have cellulite or varicose veins. I feel flabby
January 28, 2013 at 01:28 pm
I need help!! Gravity has gotten me!
January 28, 2013 at 12:42 pm
I'm tired of sweating up the sheets!
January 28, 2013 at 11:08 am
THEY WON'T RECOGNIZE ME WHEN MY FOF MM IS WELL ON IT'S WAY--NO MORE GRUNTING AND GROANING IN MY DAY. LIFE IS WORTHY OF LIVING LIKE YOU MEAN IT...LET'S GO!
January 28, 2013 at 12:08 am
After the war, victory is mine!
January 27, 2013 at 11:58 pm
I am starting menopause. I know my body is changing and I would love the menopause makeover so I can feel good about myself again.
January 27, 2013 at 10:57 pm
a gift for my mother
January 27, 2013 at 10:14 pm
I want a Menopause Makeover so I can be more comfortable.
January 27, 2013 at 08:40 pm
I don't like what i see in the mirror anymore! I've gained 30 lbs since i quit smoking 3 years ago and no matter what i try the extra weight which is all middle will not come off. I actually look like I'm 6 mo pregnant. It depresses me so much.
I also have no idea what to do with my hair. It looks awful. I don't know what cut i should get for a woman of 52. I changed the color 2 yrs ago from a dk golden blond to a chesnut brown and although people have told me i look years younger keeping it up is expensive and hard to do. lets not forget the grays that i swear show up 2 wks after coloring it. UGH!
Then there are my teeth..I chipped a front one 20 some odd years ago and had it bonded. It worked great until about 5yrs ago when it the bonding broke off. Do you know i could not find a dentist who would do another bonding on it they all wanted to do more expensive procedures that i could not afford even with dental insurance. So i don't smile a whole lot anymore either. So Please FOF consider me for a makeover. I am also not married and will be reuniting with my high school sweatheart after 30 years apart. So I'd like to look fabulous and over 50. Thank you for listening to my story.
January 27, 2013 at 08:39 pm
At 65 I can use any help there is. Oh to be young again.......
January 27, 2013 at 07:48 pm
I have gained so much weight and I truly do not like my physical appearance. It is difficult enough just going through the other mental issues that menopause brings on but when you can't even stand to look at yourself in the mirror. Enough is enough.
January 27, 2013 at 07:10 pm
So I can look better and feel better about myself!
January 27, 2013 at 06:20 pm
I would love to win this for my mother. She is in the beginning stages and I know this will cheer her up
January 27, 2013 at 05:03 pm
I suffered through menopause symptoms for 14 Years and finally took my dr.'s advice that something was not right and had a hysterectomy. I still take hormones because of hot flashes.
The main problem I have is the dreaded "back fat". I still fit into my bottoms, but I hate the back fat. I have a hard time buying jackets for work because of this.
I would love to learn from Staness.
January 27, 2013 at 03:39 pm
I was pretty active, then broke 2 ribs snowboarding, then fell off a gardening chair and hurt rotator cuff, then fell down steps, slipped on ice. Turning 50 was not a good year! I thought cutting my hair shorter would help me feel not so blah...wrong! I have gained 25 lbs and it's difficult to lose any more than 6lbs. My body has changed and I need to find a way to help me feel like I use to:)
January 27, 2013 at 03:26 pm
I am just at the beginning stages of menopause and I know very little about it. I'd like to find out more information about what works and what doesn't and how I can try to live a healthier life.
January 27, 2013 at 11:13 am
WITH MY FOF MM I'LL BE DANCING WITH RINGS ON MY FINGERS AND BELLS ON MY BEAUTIFUL TOES...LET MY GRUNTING AND GROANING AND DAILY SWEATS BE BEHIND ME.
January 27, 2013 at 08:27 am
Because I am stuck in a rut.
January 27, 2013 at 07:45 am
I'm older and wiser with so much to offer all those around me. I just want my physical appearance to reflect the power and strength that women over 50 can achieve! Confidence is intensified when a person presents strong and healthy physical well-being. I just need some support to get the physical lined up with my other successes!
January 27, 2013 at 02:18 am
Cause I feel like I am in a Woman-o-pause every night with Menopause insomnia. Want to know what will get me to sleep!
January 26, 2013 at 11:55 pm
I have been in and out of the hospital 5 times in the past year. I am now mending and desperately need a Menopause Makeover.
January 26, 2013 at 11:50 pm
I just need one! I feel like there is a wonderful person in side this body...and I would like to just feel wonderful!
January 26, 2013 at 10:17 pm
I'm heading into an exciting time in my life...retirement from a wonderful but consuming career,and I don't want to lose who I am. I hardly recognize the frumpy woman in the mirror. That really is not how I feel! I still feel beautiful,sexy,vibrant and exciting. I want the world to see me the way I see me!
January 26, 2013 at 04:26 pm
I have never had a weight problem now I am an obese blob with no energy
January 26, 2013 at 04:06 pm
Because I have been struggling with menopause for a few years now and just trying to get it under control. I have gained so much weight around my mid-section and hips that it is really depressing. I went from an hour glass to I don't know what. I can't dress myself, nothing looks good, and I don't know where to start. I need a desperate makeover.
January 26, 2013 at 03:28 pm
I've just come through a long grieving period as a caregiver for the last ten years. I need to revive myself in all senses of the word.
January 26, 2013 at 10:49 am
to look beach fab
January 26, 2013 at 10:30 am
SUCH A REWARDING AND THOUGHTFUL GIFT FOR STANESS TO SHARE HER TIME AND EFFORTS WITH SOMEONE SUCH AS YOU OR I...I KNOW ITS MYSELF THAT WILL CELEBRATE A FOF MM AS I SIT HERE IN POST MENSTRAL SWEATS AS I'M TYPING...AHHHHH
January 26, 2013 at 01:58 am
with everything else I have going on, such as a cervical fusion and a cyst in my brain, menopause has hit hard and I could really use a menopause makeover, thanks for the chance to win!
January 26, 2013 at 12:44 am
I just turned 50 on Tuesday and I would really like a way to mark this new decade. I have read Jonekos's book, but I have only implemented a few of her strategies. I'm sure a personal consultation would light a much-needed fire under my sagging bum.
January 25, 2013 at 11:56 pm
I am 65 I could use all the help I can get.
January 25, 2013 at 10:39 pm
I recently lost my almost 20 year job as a cancer nurse. Little did I know that, at the time, it was the best thing to happen to me. I was stuck, in a rut. I needed a new life.
Now I am daring to pursue that life. I have finished writing several books, and am now in the process of getting them published. I'm envisioning a new life, a new outlook, and I need a new image to go with it.
I'd love this makeover.
January 25, 2013 at 09:44 pm
After raising 3 children and taking care of two elderly parents until their death, I feel I owe it to myself!
January 25, 2013 at 08:58 pm
To regain optimal health and fitness, feel better, be better. To be stronger for the aging years head of me and show myself and the world around how strong and healthy a fifty-plus woman can be.
January 25, 2013 at 06:36 pm
Menopause has been a nightmare for me. It impacts my work, my home life, and my self image. I struggle with the weight and my mood. My focus at work has changed. I need help!
January 25, 2013 at 04:27 pm
I would love a Menopause Makeover. The lines on my face make me look mad all the time. I am a happy person, I just need some help! Please pick me!
January 25, 2013 at 02:52 pm
I've spent the last 7 yearss running back and forth cross country taking care of my Mom in CT and my husband in HI. I've neglected myself. I looked in the mirror a year ago and realized I had gained thirty pounds ... most of which I have since taken off, but worse the lines on my face have gotten hard. I USE my face. I blow kisses. I make funny faces at babies. I frown seriously when kids do something wrong. I USE MY FACE. I have also had two major MOHs surgeries (8-12 hours each) on my nose and multiple minor MOHs surgeries in various other places on my face.
I'm pretty happy with how my body is sculpting back to shape but I'm 72, went through Menopause without noticing and I need an overall Makeover.
January 25, 2013 at 12:50 pm
At age 77 I am still working and taking care of my invalid husband. I could sure use a makeover break
January 25, 2013 at 11:11 am

Hi! I have breast cancer and memopause seems to be just taking over in everything i do. i also just had mayjor back surgery that took 10 hours. between the both i need a break huge new direction in my life. it's a battle everyday and night with the mood swings and Hot Flashes etc! my family just doesn't understand what i'm going thru and its hard on my own the crying the depression is just awful! they say laughter is the best medicine and i try to laugh as much as i can it only helps for a little while i think i need more than a laugh or two. i'm trying so hard to stay positive but it's hard when your just plain lost and on your own. i was so full of life till menopause, cancer and recovering from back surgery.

I would loveathis chancerto getlback into shape. n

I need a menopause makeover please
January 24, 2013 at 11:33 am
I am a 55 year young lady who suffers from so many side effects of Menopause. I actually had a procedure scheduled in december (taking a slice of my uterus) so I could begin a very low does hormone therapy afterwards. Also a bladder suspention was to be done at the same time. Due to having my daughters 3 grandchilden to take care of, I did not get to have this done. She has just found out she was suffering from long term lyme disease and is a single mother looking for a cure. She is a RN, but cannot always make it to work, as this Lyme is very hard on her. I just need a little relief! Thanks for your generosity!
Kind regards,
Rhonda Elliott

I have noticed that my weight has shifted; I used to be bone thin, still am, but it's different. I have a roll around my waist, I have a "belly". Two thing that I have NEVER had. I would do anything to get back into shape and feel better about myself.
January 23, 2013 at 11:35 pm

January 23, 2013 at 06:30 pm
I feel stuck. I have been experiencing menopause for the last 7 years, belly weight gain, apathy, hot flashes, sleeplessness, a disconect. During this time I had a broken engagement, loss of parent, retirement to say the least. I just want to move on in the next phase of my life feeling, looking and sharing all the good that is within me.
January 23, 2013 at 05:43 pm
I am still working ar age 77 and caring for my invalid husband. I could sure use a makeover break
January 23, 2013 at 05:04 pm
I never had a problem with my weight and figure until menopause hit me. It's hard to struggling with the fact of everything I eat will now go my hips and belly! I use to be able to eat anything I wanted. I hate having nightsweats! Some nights are so unbearable. I can't sleep like I use to. I just want to gain some controll again is what it all boils down to! I need some help and guidance! :)

If you are going through menopause, you don't have to ask this question. The word menopause explains it all.
January 23, 2013 at 02:38 pm
Having just turned 40 and being pre menopausal I would be wonderful to have something to give myself a little comfort
January 23, 2013 at 02:07 pm

I would like to win this make over because I used to be in good shape, but this summer I had to deal with a flesh eating microbe that was not diagnosed by 8/9 different doctors and their different treatments. I could not exercise or go outside. I have a 35 year reunion coming this summer and wish so much to get healthy again now that my face has skin again! I hope that whoever you choose understands the gift that you are giving away is very ,very special. thank you. Kat
January 23, 2013 at 11:26 am
I can't seem to find the right combination of diet and exercise for this stage of my life. I don't want to starve on a restrictive diet and I don't want an exercise program that will cause injury. I want to make changes to benefit my health and fitness level.
January 23, 2013 at 10:54 am
I just turned 60 and while no one thinks I am over 50 (which is great for my morale) my body is certainly not what it was and I would love to get my body back in some kind of shape.
January 23, 2013 at 10:48 am
I need it badly
January 23, 2013 at 10:13 am
I need to be more in touch with myself and in better shape, and menopause has just kicked my butt! I just can't seem to do it without some help anymore!

January 22, 2013 at 10:01 pm
I would love to win a Menopause Makeover because I'm basically winging it as I go. The hot flashes (at all the wrong times), fighting with my daughter over the dial on the AC, mood swings...
I read everything I can get my hands on and ask every woman I know how they handle their symptoms, then I run out and buy or order every naturopath product that promotes menopause symptom relief.
I could really use the help!!
January 22, 2013 at 09:58 pm
I'm 61 and beginning to droop. Although I've already found Mr. Right (after 3 failed marriages!), he's 9 years younger and I need to pick up the proverbial slack!
January 22, 2013 at 09:53 pm
Married for 35 years, I'm in my first perimenopausal year - I missed my first period in May and so far, that was my last; timed exactly with the birth of my first grandchild!
Already gained 25 lbs (more than I did in pregnancy), feeling stressed, and need this makeover fast - so my husband will want to hang around for the next 35!
January 22, 2013 at 09:39 pm

January 22, 2013 at 08:34 pm
I want to feel good about myself again. I have maintained a nice figure up until I went into menopause overdrive in my 50's. I am now 55 years old and have gained 40 pounds that I am having a hard time shedding. I managed to lose 8 pounds this year through diet and exercise but it has come back, help!
January 22, 2013 at 08:26 pm
I want the Menopause Makeover, quite simply, because I am tired of looking like a fat frump. I know I am not old but looking the way I do, well, I look and feel older than I am. I want to look fabulous!
January 22, 2013 at 08:25 pm
I just turned 50 dec 21 2012...The world was supposed to end and I'm still here!!! Hehe!!! :) I'm kinda lost as to what style (hair and dress) are somewhat appropriate..I look young and act it too..soo...help!!
January 22, 2013 at 08:15 pm
I'm 58 years old and seriously in need of this makeover. I've been struggling for 3 years with my weight and the side effects of crazy horomones. I feel dumpy and I'm sure my husband would thank you if I could feel young and sexy again.

This is year thirty four of my career as a High School Reading teacher. I enjoy what I do, but I need to update my look and rejuvenate my former sassy self!
January 22, 2013 at 08:11 pm
i want to look my best
January 22, 2013 at 08:01 pm
At age 77 I am still working nd takng care of my invalid husband and could use a makeover break
January 22, 2013 at 07:46 pm
life is all too short,so i'd like to finally look and feel my best!
January 22, 2013 at 07:34 pm
I would like a make over but I know it cannot be done for me. I have wrinkles & sagging skin even though I am small.
I have given up hope on myself although I still look good in clothes.
It sure would be a challenge & I am all for it but I honestly think you want someone that has more simple goals than myself. I am 5'1" and about 118 pounds.
I try to take good care of myself but there's so much I cover up with clothes. Never to be in a swimsuit again.
I don't think there's is anything you can do for me. BUT I am willing if you are.
If so....you would have a FAN for life !
January 22, 2013 at 07:28 pm
I would like a Menopause Makeover because I am 59 and want to look and feel healthy so that I can enjoy living life with my sons and daughter-in-law! My husband passed away last March, and it has been very difficult for all of us. I am exhausted all of the time and do not feel like doing anything. I need to lose 15 pounds which I can't seem to do on my own. I really want to be a role model for my family.
Thank you.

Because I have done nothing different in my life but since I reached 50 yrs old, I've done nothing but gain weight. I am now 66yrs old and I can not get rid of this fat. I do not like myself at all. I feel ugly and fat. I've been divorced for the last 10 yrs. I am desperate to get by body back to where it used to be. I used to envy women who had big breasts. I don't anymore, I just want my big ones gone. It's funny how the way I think has changed as I get older. Menopause has caused havoc on my body, and my mind, I need help!
January 22, 2013 at 07:21 pm
Who wouldn't want one?
January 22, 2013 at 07:16 pm
I have always looked 10 years younger than my age and had the energy to work out regularly and kept it at a size 4. Then menopause hit and for the last 3 years I have gained weight, can't sleep, lack energy, got wrinkles and show all of my 54 years. Help. Donna
January 22, 2013 at 07:06 pm
It is time I took care of ME!! All the children are out and happy with their lifes and my hubby has his fishing to be happy with. I sure need some TLC as my job at the big Othropedic hospital is taking care of families and patients. So please give a caregiver of children, husband, 2 doggies and my patients a much deserved and needed time to get her self together!!!!!!
January 22, 2013 at 07:06 pm

I need a makeover to look my age while accepting it gracefully. My haircut & color is over 20yrs old w/gray of course and I'm still wearing clothes from when I was 25 ! Help me look my age & love it!
January 22, 2013 at 06:47 pm
I am 57 years old. I was never skinny, but I was active and a healthy weight for most of my life until I hit my late 40's, early 50's. Then I started to gain some weight, no matter what I tried, diet, exercise, it wouldn't stay gone. Then my energy levels started to decline as well. Things that were simple before would leave me feeling spent and tired. Please help!
January 22, 2013 at 06:43 pm
I would love a Menopause Makeover cause it's my time... I feel like Iv'e been going thru this for awhile... can't seem to lose weight, don't sleep well, just don't feel sexy anymore and I'm only 57...please help...
January 22, 2013 at 06:42 pm
A hysterectomy has wrecked my life!
January 22, 2013 at 06:30 pm
Now that I've reached 59, I realize it isn't enough to want to be Fab Over Fifty, I want to be Sexy Over Sixty!
January 22, 2013 at 06:14 pm
I want to see myself in a new and fresh way for this new chapter in my life.
January 22, 2013 at 06:11 pm
Boy do I need this, My 65 year old body could definitely use a boost of anything.
January 22, 2013 at 06:02 pm
I want to look fabulous for once in my life.
January 22, 2013 at 05:55 pm
I just got out of a 35 year marriage that was verbally, sexually, emotionally, financially abusive from day 1. I was controlled by fear and intimidation. I was trim and fit and slender most of my life - but NEVER, EVER got to feel that way because my husband always told me I was overweight and had me on diets almost constantly (even when I weighed 112 pounds). I mean water and lettuce diets where he would call from work to see if I'd eaten anything, etc. etc. I am just coming out of the anger of looking back at pictures and feeling robbed of ever feeling beautiful or feminine. During the last 20 months of legal dealings; fighting to get alimony and some of our assets, I've gained 20 pounds. I started eating emotionally and eating fast food and of course, staying in bed crying many days. I am just now waking up at age 56 1/2 and deciding I want to really live and participate in a full life. I am starting a small catering business and I also farm-sit. I want to be a fun and fit grandmother! I don't know where to begin. I know I have an aversion to dieting and want to develop healthy attitudes about my body and weight and food. I just don't know how to do it and feel overwhelmed. I would be so very appreciative of the help this contest offers. I would work hard and focus and use the help offered to change and blossom as a post-menopausal woman. Thanks for reading my story.
Sincerely, Rita Cizek
January 22, 2013 at 05:54 pm
this would be fantastic addition to my already fantastic life. LET'S GO!
January 22, 2013 at 05:52 pm
Hi, I am a retired kindergarten teacher who still loves teaching! Now I am teaching four year olds at a church Pre-school, and I don't want my kids to think I am old! Sometimes they grab my angel wings on my arm to get my attention. I need a makeover and fast! I would love it and appreciate it so much! It would make me feel and act younger and I would be able to keep up with all their energy!

January 22, 2013 at 05:44 pm
I am sixty years old and still want to be as attractive as possible. I would love to have this opportunity to have this makeover
January 22, 2013 at 05:43 pm
I have MS and can't lose very quickly or I could have an another episode. I really need to exercise and get in better shape
January 22, 2013 at 05:37 pm
Menopause is a tough time to get through and we can use all the help we can get.
January 22, 2013 at 05:31 pm
I would like a makeover to boost my self confidence. I think it will help with the emotional roller coaster that goes along with menopause. It will definitely help relieve stress.
January 22, 2013 at 05:30 pm
A great and fun opportunity to visually explore the possibility of a different look and maybe find some improvement !
January 22, 2013 at 05:22 pm
because i am jealous that stella got her groove back and calgon can't take me away.
January 22, 2013 at 05:17 pm
My body looks very different in the past two years I feel young but looking not so young. Id like to freshen up so my inside looks like my outside
January 22, 2013 at 05:14 pm
Stress stopped my period
January 22, 2013 at 05:04 pm
I have been the primary caretaker , chauffeur, and all else for my husband since his brain surgery in November. This has left me exhausted and I have been ignoring my diet, exercise and even makeup. On additive note, it keeps my mind off the hot flashes. I soooo need to be pampered and I need to take care of myself so I can be there for him.
January 22, 2013 at 05:01 pm
Since recently losing 40 pounds, my body needs to be whipped into shape. Perhaps winning this contest would get me back on the path of firmness.
January 22, 2013 at 04:50 pm
I So need this I can hardly stand my self I wish i could get away from me!
January 22, 2013 at 04:34 pm
I just feel that I look really washed out lately.
January 22, 2013 at 04:28 pm
I am at a point in my life that I am questioning just about everything about me and scared for my future and what lies ahead. I'm feeling abandoned, unwanted and unloved and finding it hard to even love myself at times.
January 22, 2013 at 04:27 pm
ugh, since I turned 51, I really dont know what happened to me. I used to feel like I was 18 years old, now I am dragging all the time. I am a Registered Nurse and work the night shift 7pm to 7am.
I want the old me back. I have started to notice a lot of aches and pains that came out of no where :(.
I have gained about 20 pounds since May 2012.
help !
Sincerely,
No Stamina
January 22, 2013 at 04:22 pm
At 58 I am re-entering the workforce....Need I say more?
January 22, 2013 at 04:16 pm
I would like a Menopause Makeover to tone my body and build some muscle. I am 61 years old and lost a lot of weight a few years ago due to illness. As a result my body has lost firmness.
January 22, 2013 at 04:09 pm
I have turned a corner in my life (besides menopause!) and am taking better care of myself, inside and out. This program would round out where I am already headed....a better me!!
January 22, 2013 at 04:09 pm
I have been battling fibromyalgia for 16 years. I was able to exercise and shed some pounds but now that I have turned 50 and in the beginning stages of menopause, I have gained weight and certain body parts cause too much pain to exercise (shoulder, elbow, feet) though I plan on trying the treadmill again.
I have been at home, not working and have very little social life. I am sick of my life and really want a change. I want to look good and feel good. If I look good I'm sure I will feel better. I really need this makeover.
January 22, 2013 at 04:03 pm
i am so stuck in the 70s cant loose the belly fat can everywhere else. i need help please
January 22, 2013 at 04:00 pm
I thought that I was finished with meopause at the age of 52...due to increase stress in my life, my huband the king of fitness and healthy eating having heart problems, my daughter and grandson age 2 that I truely adore moving back into our home. I guess I now know why my daughter called her son Phillip-"PHILZILLA"! I am now have stress related hot night sweats and then finishing off with cold sweats.
I deserve this makeover! I need help to get my life back and cope with the forbidding meopause, which now I will call "MENOPHILZILLA"! ;0)
January 22, 2013 at 03:53 pm
Got laid off, looking for a job at over 50 is not fun., could use a makeover. This would be great
January 22, 2013 at 03:49 pm
Because most things about menopause really suck! This would be not sucky.
:)
January 22, 2013 at 03:37 pm
Because I just don't recognize the person looking back at me in the mirror!
January 22, 2013 at 03:35 pm
Because I am past menopause and looking good for my age,but need a bit of a new look and very open to everything plus Jan marks my 70th birthday LOL I had a lower eye lift and do botox
but need a bit more to look 50
January 22, 2013 at 03:29 pm
I look so old and saggy and overweight that I no longer feel like me. I avoid photos and mirrors. I think this makeover could ignite my determination to get back to being me.
January 22, 2013 at 03:22 pm
I feel tired and sluggish all the time. I didn't used to feel this way. Once I had my ovaries removed, instant menopause. I would love to sleep through the night without night sweats, I would also love to feel better and have more energy to keep up with my 8 year old son.
January 22, 2013 at 03:19 pm
I've recently lost 80 pounds but I'm still 30 pounds shy of my goal and, what's worse, I've gained a couple of pounds over the last month. Every time I eat, I sweat but my body temp is 96.7 all the time. I need help and inspiration!
January 22, 2013 at 03:13 pm
I need all the help I can get!
January 22, 2013 at 03:03 pm
TO FEEL GOOD ABOUT MYSELF. MY KIDS ALWAYS TELL ME HOW BAD I LOOK. I AM SICK AND HAVE NOT KEPT UP WITH DOING EVERYTHING I SHOULD FOR MYSELF AND NOW I FEEL SO OUT OF TOUCH WITH FASHION AND MAKEUP.
January 22, 2013 at 02:57 pm
My wife need this
January 22, 2013 at 02:55 pm
I want a menopause makeover because I do not feel my age..its just a number..but..reality is I am getting older. I still feel inside like I'm 20 but the numbers do show thats not the case. I want to LOOK young again..or at least feel good about myself again.
January 22, 2013 at 02:49 pm
Because now in my 50's and menopausal my body has taken on a mind of it's own! Not cooperating with my attempts to whip it into shape! Help would be most appreciated!
January 22, 2013 at 02:43 pm
My daughter had cancer a year ago she is done with chemo now has been cancer free for 6months at that time i stayed with her and took care of her and her 2 children took her to chemo every other week etc.
Now this past christmas eve my dear friend in the whole world of 48 years passed away
Im really a mess i feel like my world is falling apart i need something for myself thank you
January 22, 2013 at 02:41 pm
I work at a law firm and put in lots of hours per week. I'm really stressed when I get home. I could use a makeover to lift my spirits. I haven't done anything to pamper myself in years.
January 22, 2013 at 02:40 pm
I think we all get stuck in ruts... A makeover would be amazing!
January 22, 2013 at 02:39 pm
I give all I can to my wonderful husband and daughters. I'm sure they would "give" all they could to me, too, to lessen the menopause symptoms, but we all know there's not much for them to do except stay out of my way in a mood swing!! I would love to be more fit, feel better and get uninterrupted sleep at night so I could be as much fun as I used to be! I would be forever grateful for the chance to show off your successful makeover!
January 22, 2013 at 02:37 pm
Because I'm currently perio-menopausal. I'm going through symptoms now and want to do everything possible to ensure I go through this phase of my life as smoothly as possible.
January 22, 2013 at 02:37 pm
Believe it or note, I'm 63 and STILL having hot flashes. I need this makeup because this menopause is driving me nuts and going on forever! Please help me!!!
January 22, 2013 at 02:35 pm
At this point I desperately NEED to feel pretty!
January 22, 2013 at 02:30 pm
I would like to enjoy a makeover.
Most of my life family and work came first.
It was a wonderful feeling being able to help others.
It would be exciting to have professionals assist me on picking outfits, hair style etc.
Thank you very much for having this contest.
Respectfully,
Sheila F. Groves
January 22, 2013 at 02:26 pm
I am 48, haven't changed my look in over 20 years, and have been gaining weight that I can't get rid of for about 3 years now!
January 22, 2013 at 02:16 pm
Cause I deserve it. Everytime I try to lose I put on.Please give me new solutions.
January 22, 2013 at 02:16 pm
I am 58 years old and mother of 3 and grandmother of 8. I seem to be going through menopause for the last 15 years. I have gained 25 pounds in the last 10 years and if I keep going this way, who knows how much I will weigh. I have tried dieting and exercising and do not lose any weight which gives me no incentive to continue with the dieting and exercising. I have spoken with my doctors and all they ever say is that it is your age and so much harder to lose weight. Not much incentive there either. I need some help. My New Year's resolution this year (again) is to watch what and how much I eat and stay on an exercise regiment. I need to do something. I do not feel good about myself and want a change. Please help!
January 22, 2013 at 02:14 pm
THANK YOU
January 22, 2013 at 02:10 pm
I am the very last person who gets taken care of and I would like to see the young, beautiful, fun and IN SHAPE gal I use to love. I miss her!
January 22, 2013 at 02:06 pm
I'm just starting menopause and can use all the help I can get :)
January 22, 2013 at 02:03 pm
I LOVE THIS UNIQUE CONTEST
January 22, 2013 at 02:03 pm
I'm 54 and have had Menopause symptoms for 2 years now. I've gained weight, I have mood swings, and I have terrible hot flashes and night sweats. I take over the counter Menopause pills every day, but I don't think they do much. I would love to win this Makeover! Thanks!
January 22, 2013 at 02:03 pm
I really,really need a makeover! I am floundering here....HELP!
January 22, 2013 at 02:00 pm
I went threw early menopause and my body needs a lift, I'm 58 and had gastric by-pass two years ago.
January 22, 2013 at 01:59 pm
Need to shed some weight and feel better about myself
January 22, 2013 at 01:54 pm
I am 51. December 5th, 2012 I had back surgery. By accident, he ripped my bowels during surgery, but did not know. I was sent home, and got sicker than I've ever been. I was toxic so badly, I was readdmitted, had emergency major bowel reconstruction, and was in the ICU for four days. I was finally discharged on Christmas eve. I am still on the IV antibiotic and wearing a wound vac. I hope to be better within the next couple of weeks.
I am very weak, and am really looking forward to getting stronger and MUCH more healthy.
January 22, 2013 at 01:53 pm
I'M STUCK IN A RUT. I'M STILL STYLING MY HAIR AND APPLYING MAKEUP THE SAME AS BEFORE MENOPAUSE. I NEED HELP AND IDEAS TO GET MODERNIZED. I HAVEN'T A CLUE HOW TO DO IT.
January 22, 2013 at 01:50 pm
Sounds like a great prize, and something I could use to boost my moral.
January 22, 2013 at 01:45 pm
I will turn 60 this year, and could use a makeover! Thanks for the chance!
January 22, 2013 at 01:45 pm
I'm recovering from a hysterectomy and could use something like a makeover to bring about the positive aspects of menopause.
January 22, 2013 at 01:38 pm
Sounds interesting
January 22, 2013 at 01:36 pm
I was devastated at turning 60 and started having multiple issues that I had not experienced before and would hope that this Menopause Makeover would make everything more tolerable.
January 22, 2013 at 01:35 pm
Because menopause i very hard to go through. everything changes and you start to feel unconfident. It would be great to get a boost to get through this
January 22, 2013 at 01:34 pm
Need it!
January 22, 2013 at 01:30 pm
Iv gained so much weight and really lost sight of myself.
January 22, 2013 at 01:18 pm
I work a full time job and a part time job as a single mom.......always on the run.....I spend my extra time with kids and I would like to have ME time........I think i well deserve it.......thank you
January 22, 2013 at 01:16 pm
I'm 62 and still having hot flashes! I need help with my look, my outlook, and my self esteem.
January 22, 2013 at 01:11 pm
I need a fresh new look for a fresh new year!
January 22, 2013 at 01:06 pm
I want a Menopause Makeover because i NEED it. Thank you
January 22, 2013 at 01:05 pm
It's me against the hormones. I need this!
January 22, 2013 at 12:57 pm
It is a great prize.
January 22, 2013 at 12:52 pm
I need a change as I've gone to the Frumpy Side (as opposed to the Dark Side). I live in a small town in Northern Ontario where everyone wears turtlenecks with moose and birds embroidered on them. Oh, and Mom jeans. Help!
January 22, 2013 at 12:51 pm
Would love to get rid of the weight and skin changes from menopause!!
January 22, 2013 at 12:50 pm
I have already started menopause at the age of 43. It use to be easy for me to lose weight and now it's gotten harder. I have recently gotten engaged to a guy who is truly the love of my life, I would love to lose weight and get healthier so I can be around for my grandchildren and so I can look fabulous in a wedding dress. I would also love a great start to this new chapter in my life.
January 22, 2013 at 12:47 pm
I am getting married this summer and I would LOVE a makeover! I am 54 yrs young and I am experiencing night sweats? Yuck! Please help!
January 22, 2013 at 12:40 pm
Because I was in the best shape if my life in my 40's for 10 years. I am menopausal now, and have gained 45 lbs and feel
Yuck, physically, and mentally.
I am ready to change my life and start living. Life is not over
at 55. I am willing to do whatever it takes to be healthier a feel better. I judt beed some help! Thanks!
January 22, 2013 at 12:37 pm
I am shocked by the changes in my body since I started permimenopause; now I'm menopause and determined to get as healthy as possible so that I'm well-poised to take on the rest of my life celebrating and appreciating my body.
January 22, 2013 at 12:36 pm
To make me feel young again
January 22, 2013 at 12:31 pm
Because I know it's coming to me soon...I want to be ready.
January 22, 2013 at 12:29 pm
I have noticed as I've gotten older, it is getting harder to lose weight and keep in shape. I'm 55 and will be 56 in July and am tired and depressed about my weight loss efforts. I think my metabolism is non-existent. Doesn't matter what food I eat or don't eat or how much I exercise, it stays the same. I have clothes from last year that don't fit exactly right this year, how can that be possible? I am so tired of feeling older than I am just because I look like I need "mommy" jeans, but I refuse to wear them!!! It would be great to have someone work with me to possibly find a solution to this middle age spread of my waist and hips that I find myself into. I used to be such a skinny thing growing up. Sigh.....
January 22, 2013 at 12:28 pm
The variety of this makeover will surely be a great lift to me inside and out.
January 22, 2013 at 12:28 pm
I know longer fill good about myself and stopped even trying.
January 22, 2013 at 12:24 pm
At 58 most of us need makeovers, I have been post memopausal since the 80's..............I'm due:-)
January 22, 2013 at 12:21 pm
After surviving a stroke and heart attack at age 41 I was put into early menopause. Life is a challenge without the effects of menopause. This would just give me a life and help me understand all the aspects of menopause.
January 22, 2013 at 12:15 pm
I nned a fresh start, a new image and a new lease on life. This would be wonderful to win!
January 22, 2013 at 12:15 pm
I'm very overweight and I think this is getting in the way of finding a job. I go for interviews and when people look at me, they think I'm not capable performing the job because of my weight and appearance.
I think if I get the proper guidance to lose weight and by improving my appearance, I will have a better chance finding a job.
January 22, 2013 at 12:11 pm
After a radical hysterectomy in my 40's, 10 years of declining hormones have taken their toll. I know... "Never ask for whom the bell tolls - it tolls for thee!" Yet, I would put that alarm on SNOOZE for a decade if I can! Help!
January 22, 2013 at 12:10 pm
Because I turned 55 this week and am having menopause issues and especially weight issues with extra pounds in the middle. I think if I can learn more about managing the menopause perhaps I can lose some weight as well as feel better.
January 22, 2013 at 12:08 pm
Ugh ... Menopause, the dreaded word. I'm really struggling to find the right mix of exercise and diet. This would be wonderful to win!!!
January 22, 2013 at 12:07 pm
I would love to be pampered and made over..I used to be self motivated, and now I have to go to YMCA bodyflow classes and exercise 'in front' of people cause I can't seem to get myself to exercise at home. Unless of course it is summer time and I can ride my bike. Otherwise I need direction and motivation..too busy to take care of myself? At 51 I know what I need to do to stay in shape but it seems my body is changing again, and my mind needs to keep up with my body..
January 22, 2013 at 12:06 pm
A makeover would be such a bonus at my age.
January 22, 2013 at 12:05 pm
Having started the Menopause process several years ago, I now realize that it has bested me. I need help!!!!
January 22, 2013 at 12:03 pm
In the past year, I think I've had almost every menopause symptom I've ever heard or read about. For example, I now refer to my pillow as a "flotation device." My brain is so foggy, you could use it as a setting for a Sherlock Holmes movie, although I'm not sure that even this great, fictional sleuth could find the words/names I want and can't seem to remember. I'm starving all the time, and have gained ten pounds that I can't seem to lose--although I doubt eating an entire pumpkin pie--oh yes, I did--helped my situation! I seem to crave sugar, by the way, and my dreams involve more visions of sugar plums dancing in my head than dates with Richard Gere. And if I get any more cranky, I'll need to wrap myself with barbed wire to protect those people brave enough to venture too close. Honestly, I don't even know this woman! Any help you can give me would be so appreciated, although please forgive me if I forget who you are before you can respond...!
January 22, 2013 at 12:00 pm
Years of neglect need to make it right
January 22, 2013 at 11:59 am
Just can't do it on my own!! I really need all the help I can get! Oh how I would love to pull it together , so with your help I would be able to! How great would that be!
January 22, 2013 at 11:54 am
Would love to have a makeover! I am a new grandma and want to be a glam Mimi!
January 22, 2013 at 11:53 am
I have decidated the majority of my life to serving the needs of others. At 50, I believe that it is finally time to do something for myself and this Menopause Makeover would be awesome!
January 22, 2013 at 11:53 am
Help from feeling old.
January 22, 2013 at 11:48 am
this is a nice giveaway
January 22, 2013 at 11:45 am
because every woman should feel her best....
January 22, 2013 at 11:44 am
I want a Menopause makeover to look and feel confident about my image.
January 22, 2013 at 11:44 am
I will be 53 next month and the aging process is in overload! I feel young on the inside, but need a pick me up on the outside -- to look good makes you exude confidence!
January 22, 2013 at 11:42 am
I am also 47 and gained a lot of weight especially around my belly and also face and legs. I need to look young again!
January 22, 2013 at 11:41 am
because i am ready to start over, put menopause behind me and start the second half of my life....
January 22, 2013 at 11:38 am
Menopause is just God's sense of humor, and sometimes it just isn't funny! :) At 54, I'm starting over with life. After 24 years of marriage, two kids, my spouse apparently "changed his priorities" about marriage. The 3rd affair was the deal breaker. I want to look and feel as good as I can, but especially now. I don't want to give up just because of menopause, age and a divorce. Heck no, I know that God has good plans for me. Maybe it's winning this. :)
January 22, 2013 at 11:36 am
Up to now, I just figured it was the sad consequences of ageing. But, maybe there is hope. I would really like to give it a try.
January 22, 2013 at 11:35 am
I started menopause at 55, two years after losing 125 pounds. I have gained 40 since las year and can't seem to get it off. I just don't even feel like myself anymore.
January 22, 2013 at 11:34 am
My life seems to be stagnent. Nothing seems to catch my interest like it used to. If I could lose twenty pounds, I'd look and feel better but I don't have the will power or the strong desire to do what would make that happen. I eat too much of the wrong things and a not active enough.
January 22, 2013 at 11:34 am
SUCH A BEAUTIFUL GIFT AND POWERFUL INCENTIVE FOR ME TO REMEMBER AND REINFORCE THE BEAUTY THAT I TRULY AM...THIS MM IS JUST THE TICKET FOR ME.
January 22, 2013 at 11:32 am
I would love to win these items! I feel like my body and soul are in such a slomp! Need to lose and feel good. Maybe about 20 - 25 pounds. Please need to feel like my old self.
January 22, 2013 at 11:29 am
I am a 52 year old Uterine Cancer survivor. I was diagnosed when I was 48. I would like to feel good again. My daugher is getting married in July and I would love to look beautiful for her special day. I am an artist and I love to cook. This could really be the stepping stone to a more healthy lifestyle for me. Thank you for considering me.
January 22, 2013 at 11:26 am
To feel good about myself again!
January 22, 2013 at 11:25 am
I need this desperately. I turn the big 60 this week. Since I have started menopause, I have developed RA. I need to get my life back on track.
January 22, 2013 at 11:24 am
I am turning 60 in a few weeks and find this a challenging time in my life. My hope is to stay healthy both physically and emtionally, be productive professionally and personally and continue to work on myself in all areas. I really could use a makeover at this time in my life to bolster my spirits, spark my enthusiasm and point me in the right direction!
January 22, 2013 at 11:22 am
Help! I am 47 and the weight gain, mood swings and hot flashes are driving me crazy. I am hoping a menopause makeover will get me back to feeling normal.
January 22, 2013 at 11:16 am
I'm so afraid I will end up like one of those women who doesn't dress appropriately for her age and then looks pathetic. I just don't understand what "my age" is supposed to look like
January 22, 2013 at 11:15 am
Im totally struggling with trying o lose wright and to sleep an entire night. I work in a mans world and have to lead meetings while having hot flashes. I exercise daily drink lots of water and try to eat well and still have difficulty taking weight off. I recently went back to school and want to be able to concentrste while in class.
January 22, 2013 at 11:14 am
Umm...who wouldn't want a makeover?!!? The extra around the middle that doesn't move no matter how hard I work? That even though I strength train regularly (and push hard!) - it seems that I can eat less & less food to just maintain my weight? Shall I go on....?
January 22, 2013 at 11:14 am
I truley do need a make over, with hotflashes(which ought to be against somebodies law :)) weight gain, dryness, lumps in the wrong places, yep I would love/need a make over.
January 22, 2013 at 11:13 am
Because I need a little help here, I am so unhappy with my appearance.
January 22, 2013 at 11:12 am
I need a menopause makeover need I say more? LOL!
January 22, 2013 at 11:11 am
Who wouldn't want a menopause makeover. I'm 53 and right at that age where I need one more than want one.
January 22, 2013 at 11:06 am
grey hair, wrinkles, mom jeans, no job, starting a new career, need to look the part.
January 22, 2013 at 11:05 am
I want a Menopause Makeover because of the hot flashes I get and the extra weight I have gained and can't seem to get rid of.
January 22, 2013 at 11:01 am
Hot flash after hot flash for 20 years now.
January 22, 2013 at 10:59 am
I need a new lease on life. I was dealing with menopause pretty well until I fractured my leg in 4 places in a hot air balloon crash in July 2011. I have metal plate in my leg and ankle. I was on crutches 4 months and tore my rotator cuff. I'm having surgery for that on 2/28/13. Lots of personal family issues such as husband's unplanned early retirement and depression & daughter's stage 4 cancer diagnosis has left me wiped out. I've gained weight, lost energy, and I'm feeling old. I could use some help! Thanks!
January 22, 2013 at 10:59 am
To take me over this hump and onto the next phase of my life as a single woman!
To feel attractive again!
January 22, 2013 at 10:59 am
Since I started menopause I have a spare tire around my waist. I can't find anything to fit without the pant legs being super big just to fit my waist. Please help!
January 22, 2013 at 10:58 am
Where do I begin? I am an 0verweight women, in need of help. I graduated with my masters degree this past May, and have been looking for work for months. Struggling with my weight and feeling good about myself, this menopause makeover would be amazing and come at a perfect time of my life. I need help and this makeover could be help me at a pivotal time of my life.
I want to help change the world, one person at a time, and in this instance starting with myself so I can share the knowledge with others.
Thank you for the chance.
January 22, 2013 at 10:57 am
Wow, each and every component is "exactly what I need". I've grown weary of the battle, yet seeing this package gives me hope with a tinge of...wait...yes...it IS a 'tinge" of CONFIDENCE I CAN DO THIS!! Please consider me! THANK YOU!!
January 22, 2013 at 10:54 am
I recently lost 80 pounds and entered menopause. I've been single and busy raising my daughter, so now, with the weight loss, I'm ready to head out and find my special someone. I will be retiring at the end of 2013, as well, which means a fresh start in all aspects of my life. Makeover or not, life is excellent, but it would be great for this soon to be ex-librarian to have a new health routine and a bit of pampering as a celebration of the positive changes I have ahead of me.
January 22, 2013 at 10:49 am
My wardrobe is so out dated.
January 22, 2013 at 10:47 am
I'm falling apart! I can't seem to accept that I am 56 - going -on 57 and I just ignore all the Menopause inconveniences... what you don't acknowledge, isn't Real, right? Well, I have ignored this contest for too long and I know that I need to face up to facts and get some help!
January 22, 2013 at 10:46 am
Between trouble sleeping due to aches and feeling too hot, and then the body changes - gaining weight from just thinking about certain foods, menopause is definitely giving me pause. I need help coping!! A makeover would definitely fill the bill.
January 22, 2013 at 10:45 am
Combat aging, increase energy, health, vitality and flexibility, tone and get in shape so that I may continue to live an active lifestyle and increase my self-esteem as I age. To embrace aging rather than fear it...
January 22, 2013 at 10:45 am
I'd like to have my body and my life back.
January 22, 2013 at 10:45 am
I am 53, recently engaged to a wonderful man, and am just beginning to deal with menopause weight gain and other issues. I want to get myself in shape not only for my wedding in 2014, but to have a vibrant and full rest of my life with nothing holding me back.
I really like how you use a comprehensive approach, and I would be honored to be selected for your Menopause Makeover.
Thank you!
Elsa
January 22, 2013 at 10:44 am
Please pick me. I am a 55 year old with winter depression and a terrible habit of obsessively cutting my own hair. I work part time as a hairdresser and am trying to stay relevent, something hard to do when you are competing against people much younger for clients. I need some help, for my self con
fidence.
January 22, 2013 at 10:43 am
I'd love to win this! I've lost 10 pounds since the new year - 20 to go! I'd love to win this because I've never felt comfortable enough in my own skin to even wear shorts in the summertime. Her before pic reminds me of me - not grossly overweight, but needs toning. Her after pic is what I would love to come close to looking like! I'd love a makeover where finally my outside matches the way feel inside.
January 22, 2013 at 10:41 am
Like many others.. I would love to look younger. The last few years have been tough, and unfortunately it shows. A fresh start is just the ticket.
January 22, 2013 at 10:41 am
I just want to feel like my old self again!
January 22, 2013 at 10:41 am
Want to enjoy a healthy vibrant life over 50.
January 22, 2013 at 10:39 am
I need this so desperately. I am turning 50 this week and I am so depressed because I have lost some weight but now I still sag in all the wrong places. I need to lose some more but this would help go a long way to motivate me more.
January 22, 2013 at 10:38 am
Today I became 63 years of age. I weigh 176 lb and am 5'3" I would like to look and feel better.
January 22, 2013 at 10:35 am
i recognize that change is inevitable but would like to it to be less evident. From my larger waistline to blemishes on the chin (never had teenage acne!) to flabby arms, and forehead wrinkles I would like to minimize all of them ! My perimenopause was an intense time for me and I think I deserve a reboot (and i am sure many other women too!) . Thank you for offering this !
January 22, 2013 at 10:35 am
I want to look and feel younger! Since turning 50 I feel like I'm on a roller coaster and I want off! I would like to get a handle on my diet and exercise habits and make the most out of the second half of my life.
January 22, 2013 at 10:34 am
I just turned 50 on January 3rd and feel that I look far from being an attractive middle aged woman. My body has been putting on fat over the past 2 years, haven't changed my hairstyle in 20 years, kept the same make-up routine since my 20s and I have been fighting with the joys of menopause over the past several years. To sum it all up I feel I am a mess and need major help in becoming an attractive, even sexy woman at the age of 50! SOS, please help!
January 22, 2013 at 10:34 am
I am 54, I need help! No one ever teaches you this stuff, they just say you have to accept the way you are and move on. I am already working on the nutrtion part, I need help to continue with this plus also adding other healthy lifestyle changes to deal with the changes my body is going through.
January 22, 2013 at 10:34 am
Because if anybody needs a menopause makeover it would be me, I am so upset with the changes I have been going through....What I am now is not me, I need to be tranformed.
January 22, 2013 at 10:34 am
I'm approaching 50 this year and want to get into top shape for the next 50!
January 22, 2013 at 10:33 am
it will help me to break a bad circle greatly hope I win !
January 22, 2013 at 10:33 am
this would be a great to win thanks for the chance-i need a change a lift a shift thanks
January 22, 2013 at 10:33 am
I want a Menopause Makeover because I am in Menopause and try to do everything that can either make me look or feel better. I feeling that I am falling short and need a coach, a leader in this industry that could help me and give me some tips.
January 22, 2013 at 10:33 am
This is just what I need to give me a boost, energize my efforts to become more healthy and prepare for an upcoming college reunion!
January 22, 2013 at 10:32 am
Sometimes being fifty is not so nifty. Could use some help in the areas of weight control and hormone balance issues!
January 22, 2013 at 10:32 am
curious
January 22, 2013 at 10:29 am
I have 3 boys 6,8, & 11, aging parents and a looming 50th birthday, I can use all the help I can get!!
January 22, 2013 at 10:28 am
I just don't feel attractive or sexy anymore, would love to get some of that back.
January 22, 2013 at 10:27 am
What happened? I used to be thin, energetic and sleep well. I am 58 and somewhere along the way I lost that girl. Since the age of 43 I hVe been a one way disaster as a woman but excelled as a mother and businesswoman but I feel I have let myself down health wise. I have a personal training system in my second bedroom that I use as a clothing rack, what's up with that? I want to be Ms. Beautiful Menopause 2013. Can you help?
January 22, 2013 at 10:25 am
I would so love the menopause makeover.
January 22, 2013 at 10:25 am
why i deserve a make over .. im a 51 yrs old widow and grandma .. i need a new start ant to feel better about myself .. help in indiana
January 22, 2013 at 10:24 am
God in my shape to wish for the sixties again would be a blessing. I simply love to know after sickness, sacrificies for children, grandchildren, death of spouse after thirty years; I still have that possible look to turn one man's head and get a smile
January 22, 2013 at 10:24 am
Because it is my turn to be taken care of!
January 22, 2013 at 10:23 am
It's always great to get a makeover to uplift you up physically and mentally.
January 22, 2013 at 10:22 am
I would love to see a new and improved me. I'd like to take atrip back to my childhood village in Germany this year and it would be great to meet my old friends and "wow" them with the new "old" me!
January 22, 2013 at 10:22 am
I need to work on the puffs that jiggle. Just lost 12 pounds but my puffs still jiggle, even with the gym workouts.
January 22, 2013 at 10:21 am
I would love to win the Menopause Makeover because the last 10 years have not been good to my body. I was 129 pounds and working out on a regular basis. Then I started feeling exhausted all the time, no energy and massive weight gain. In just 2 years, I went from 129 to 197. Turns out I had a thyroid problem THREE doctors missed.
Now I would love to get a good body back and feel better!
thanks.
January 22, 2013 at 10:21 am
I have never had any kind of makeover and if ever there was a time for one, this is it. Menopause has been a difficult period for me in many ways (emotionally and physically.) I believe that a makeover would really give me a lift I need.
January 22, 2013 at 10:19 am
I would love to win this makeover package a get a head start on a new program to help me feel great!
January 22, 2013 at 10:19 am
I would so love a menopause makeover. Our body changes thus our lifestyle changes. It affects mental and physical. I would be so grateful for this.
January 22, 2013 at 10:18 am
who wouldn't want a menopause makeover!
January 22, 2013 at 10:17 am
How great to receive some personalized input, tips & attention on how to update one's look instead of being stuck in what one has done for the past 20 years!
January 22, 2013 at 10:17 am
I'm a mess and know you can take of this!!!! Please help me get the Menoapuse Makeover I desperately need.
Sincerely,
A Dreamer
January 22, 2013 at 10:17 am
My body has begun to look and feel like it belongs to someone else! I can't decide if I'm hot or cold. I'm too tired to exercise, but not too tired to eat! (never too tired for that!) Clothes in the stores all look like they are designed for teenage bodies or someone who no longer cares, and I do still care!
January 22, 2013 at 10:16 am
Even though menopause started several years ago, I am still having the sweats and having trouble getting back into shape / losing the weight!
January 22, 2013 at 10:14 am
today 01/22/13 is my birthday I am 51 years of age
January 22, 2013 at 10:14 am
Why would I not want to win. This looks like an awesome opportunity! Menopause has definitely not been my friend, being on the short side, under 5' and adding pounds to my small frame has been a tough thing to accept, I have fought the battle with supplements, altering my eating habits and exercising (although I admit not enough) and nothing has helped. This would be a wonderful way to start off 2013!!!!
January 22, 2013 at 10:14 am
I could really use this. I just started menopause. Although, I have lost 16 lbs. I still have a long way to go and the weight is coming off slowly.
January 22, 2013 at 10:14 am
Who would not LOVE to have a makeover? This would be a great way to spend these cold winter months.
January 22, 2013 at 10:13 am
I am tired of looking frumpy. I feel young but look old. Nothing I do works. I need help.
January 22, 2013 at 10:12 am
Why not?
January 22, 2013 at 10:11 am
Why not?
January 22, 2013 at 10:10 am
I need help.
January 22, 2013 at 10:09 am
Who wouldn't?
January 22, 2013 at 09:02 am
Thanks for the opportunity to makebe win a MM...the worst part now is the crazy sleep and motivation to do what I use to do.... We are empty nesters and want to get back into the swing of life again!
January 22, 2013 at 07:48 am
I am really struggling. In the past my healthy diet and exercise kept me fairly fit. Now, at 53, if I look at food, I gain weight. I used to sleep soundly, but now, I struggle with restless sleep. My sex life which was once wonderful, is now stressful and unfulfilling for both me and my husband. I dont feel like myself, I feel like me in the body of a stranger.
I have tried supplements, diet changes, etc., but to no avail. I briefly tried hormone therapy, but that was not successful for me.
HELP!
January 21, 2013 at 11:52 pm
At times, one feels that growing old just isn't a blast. There are some positives, like the knowledge that I know have that I wished that I had when I was in my twenties. Once menopause kicked in, I have evidence that I am physically aging. Brown spots all over my body, increased weight gain, thinning of my hair and dry skin....on and on. I would love a make over to give me a boost!
January 21, 2013 at 11:31 pm
Since going into peri-menopause, my mind and body has not been the same. I want a Menopause Makeover to bring back the sharp mind and fit strong body that I use to have. And...
to have the initiative, energy, and motivation to socialize again.
January 21, 2013 at 08:17 pm
When you can't beat the heat on your own "personal summer" something's got to give.
January 21, 2013 at 07:04 pm
I am the Mother,Grandmother, and Great Aunt to many wonderful children. My life has been committed to nurturing young ones into happy,content, loving adults. As I age my job has only evolved. When I walk into a room I want them to be proud of my appearance. It will boost my esteem and renew my confidence. I will be secure in my fashion style. I want to look like I have blossomed into a gracious older woman,with a trendy and up to date appeal.
January 21, 2013 at 02:33 pm
I need a a new plan for this year to be healthier.
January 21, 2013 at 01:01 pm
Hot flashes are definitely out of control in my life! My husband's favorite saying is, " She will be fine, her thermostat is broken!"
January 21, 2013 at 12:26 pm
I have been in surgically induced menopause since age 34. Now at 53, symptoms are STILL making bothersome. The weight, hot flashes and night sweats are constant contenders. My skin tone and texture has changed over the years. An update would be WONDERFUL! Thank you for the offer.
January 21, 2013 at 12:02 pm
She looks amazing, I too have been
slammed after a full hysterectomy at 45-not at 55,
still can't shed pounds.
January 21, 2013 at 11:42 am
YES! IT'S TIME TO GET SOME HEALTHY AND ACTIVE PLAYTIME IN THE BEDROOM...HEC...EVERYWHERE WITH MY NEW MM MAKEOVER. HOORAH...CELEBRATE ALL ASPECTS OF LIFE.
January 21, 2013 at 11:27 am
I am 77 yrs. old and still working and could certainly use a makeover break.
January 21, 2013 at 09:23 am
I'm currently a unemployed nurse who has spent her time taking care of others but now, I'm taking care of my first grandson Zaxxaz's and I need to be able to get around better as it's been 13 years since I've had a child that young
that I've taken care of!
January 20, 2013 at 09:26 pm
I just need to do something to make me feel better.I have a hard time with winter as it is and now I feel as if I just want to eat and sleep. I need something to motivate me and get me going. This sure would be an awesome gift to win. I live on a Lake and what you look and feel like is very important so please help me!
January 20, 2013 at 07:49 pm
I would love to give this as a gift to someone I know who needs it!
January 20, 2013 at 05:56 pm
It is time for ME now. I am 51 and throughout my whole life, I had always put everyone else ahead of me, ahead of my needs and desires. It is ME time now!!!
January 20, 2013 at 05:24 pm
i am 77 yrs. old and still working and need a makeover break.
January 20, 2013 at 02:49 pm
I'm looking old and feeling miserable. Plus my husband is 9 years younger than me. Help!
January 20, 2013 at 11:57 am
Because it's just starting for me, and I would like to go into it with my best foot forward.
January 20, 2013 at 11:52 am
THIS IS THE PERFECT TIME AND OPPORTUNITY TO LIVE THE PRESENT MOMENT. WITH A M.M., I REFUSE TO FIGHT THE MENOPAUSE SYSTEMS AND ALLOW THE GOOD LIFE TO ABIDE, LET'S GO....
January 19, 2013 at 11:35 pm
Because I need it... I'm hot, but not in a good way!
January 19, 2013 at 10:32 pm
I so need this makeover because I am turning 52 in June I am very moody, puffy, and dry. I can't stand not being able to sleep thru the night because of hot sweats and my hair is dull. Please help me. I didn't even mention what it is doing to my love life. Thank You, Anna
January 19, 2013 at 04:41 pm
I BELIEVE IN BEING THE BEST I CAN BE, REGARDLESS OF THE AGRANOYINGNESS OF MENOPAUSE...TIME FOR CHANGE.
January 19, 2013 at 12:51 pm
I need to lose weight
January 19, 2013 at 10:07 am
-Big Sigh-
I'm a way off 50, Mother Nature had 'other plans' for my body ... if you know what I mean ... :D
Have you ever been on a merry-go-round, and tried to push your body into the oposite direction? That's exactly how I feel!
January 19, 2013 at 01:21 am
I would like to regain some of the flexibility which I've lost.
January 19, 2013 at 12:50 am
As I sit sipping a glass of ice tea and sweating through my lovely blouse I just put on, I ponder why I must continue to be tortured by all these menopausal symptoms. Somethings are wet that shouldn't be and other things are dry that shouldn't be when does this bodily confusion stop?Irritated with most things and red in the face even though I haven't been drinking. So, yes a Menopause Makeover would ease the pain of this torturous journey we ladies all have to face.
January 19, 2013 at 12:37 am
I think having someone coach you thru this part of your life will make it an easier journey.
January 18, 2013 at 10:34 pm
I feel run down and frumpy . Could really use a self esteem boost
January 18, 2013 at 08:54 pm
i need a little break from caring for my dear, sweet invalid husband
January 18, 2013 at 07:52 pm
I have constant weight gain causing health problems & no matter what I do, I have been unsuccessful in losing weight! If this works, it will be a miracle, my health will improve!
January 18, 2013 at 04:23 pm
48 with three girls, ages 6,8,10 and a wonderful husband. I want to be a great example to them! With lots of endurance, great health and a sexy style!
January 18, 2013 at 03:18 pm
I am avoiding mirrors, pictures, windows, water surfaces. I cannot stand the reflection. Help
January 18, 2013 at 03:17 pm
NOW IS THE BEST TIME TO REALIZE I HAVE NEVER BEEN BETTER THAN THIS MOMENT. I TOOK ALL OF MY LIFE TO CREATE WHO I AM NOW--ALL THE UPS AND DOWNS AND ALL AROUNDS IN MY LIFE. A MAKEOVER WILL ASSURE I AM TRULY BEAUTIFUL IN ALL I AM.
January 18, 2013 at 02:54 am
Run down, Run ragged, Sleep deprived and Worn out.
January 18, 2013 at 12:12 am
I feel like I have somewhat lost myself since I've been going through menopause. Winning this prize would give me the encouragement and help that I need to feel comfortable in my own body again.
January 17, 2013 at 09:06 pm
I could use a little break from caring for my invalid husband
January 17, 2013 at 08:01 pm
To look and feel younger
January 17, 2013 at 07:54 pm
I feel great - I would like to look great too
January 17, 2013 at 05:09 pm
I'M CELEBRATING A NEW ME--NOT EVEN MENAPAUSE AND HOT SWEATS ARE GOING TO WIN OVER THIS FOB.
January 17, 2013 at 05:01 pm
To look more beautiful!
January 17, 2013 at 04:24 pm
I dislike my middle and would like to feel good again.
January 17, 2013 at 04:00 pm
Because I am 50 and going through menopause. It would be nice to have a coach to help me with this transition.
January 17, 2013 at 02:26 pm
How I dearly wish I had this opportunity ages ago! But better late than never.This giveaway seems to contain every need that a menopausing(is it a word?)woman could need.The vaginal moisturizers would be a new BFF. The moisture wicking items a godsend.I would love to read Staness Jonekos book,and the one on one assistance well,would just be fab.Thank you for this fantastic giveaway!

I need a MAKEOVER REALLY REALLY BAD. I am 48, grey hair (cover up by hair color), wrinkles, stuck in mom jeans, bib overalls, I bite my nails, I once was a fashion queen (all about the terns), then I had a babies, and as my husband said, eh Ripcord effect happened. I gained 120 pounds during my troublesome depressing years. I was in bedridden myself for a long time period. I had and am having a hard time to lose the weight (still trying after 25+ years later). I have lost some of it, but not all of it. I am in my second career, or trying to get into a second career. To be successful I need to project the correct image. Hopefully you can help me make 2013 a year to remember, as the year my life changed...
January 17, 2013 at 02:03 pm
At the age of 50 I was struggling with hot flashes, night sweats, etc. Then I was diagnosed with stage III breast cancer. After a mastectomy, chemo, and radiation I was put on hormone suppression drugs. My menopause symptoms are much more severe. I am lifting weights in an attempt to rebuild muscle mass, but am experiencing fatigue. The hot flashes and night seats are much worse. I am ready for a makeover!
January 17, 2013 at 11:55 am
I am out of shape and sometimes feel like I'm losing what little I have left of my mind! I've always been very active and work in the arts, directing/music directing/playing piano & singing gigs, and my energy level is nowhere near what it used to be. HELP!
January 17, 2013 at 07:45 am
About three months ago I am going thought menopause. I didn't know it was going to be this bad. I have hot flashes. To were they about make me sick. I take pills to try to control it but its not working.
January 17, 2013 at 07:20 am
Sounds like fun-
I'd like a make over that does not involve loosing weight.
I am 121 pounds- same as I was in 1967 when I married so weight is not an issue.
But I feel like I look like death- skin grey and pasty, hair thinning and all fly away..I alwasy look like i need about a week's sleep- and feel that way too.
SIGN ME UP!!
January 17, 2013 at 06:42 am
I want a Menopause Makeover because I want to be fabulous at 50!
January 17, 2013 at 01:08 am
A few years ago, my stomach was as flat as my 23 yr old granddaughter's; NOT ANYMORE. I am still thin but now I have a belly and a roll of fat around my middle and I hate, hate, hate it. Not used to being out of shape like this. I need help please!!
January 17, 2013 at 12:08 am
I went through a late one and could use help to get better
January 16, 2013 at 10:05 pm
I tired of being frumpy with no style or class. I need to add pazza to my life and find love and happiness again. I need help....
January 16, 2013 at 08:42 pm
I need to lose about 20 lbs NOW, thanks
January 16, 2013 at 07:47 pm
I have been experiencing hot flashes, night sweats and mood swings for over 3 years. I have put on weight and my hair does not repond the way it used to. My daughter is getting married this summer and I would like to look and feel better. As it is, I always feel anxious and nervous.
January 16, 2013 at 07:36 pm
I would like a makeover so I can look fabulous as I am now single after 22 years of marriage and would like to enter another relationship with someone very special. I want to look awesome so that I can attract this man.
January 16, 2013 at 05:44 pm
I have gained about 40 pounds in my midsection in the last year. Its as if iI have an innertube around it. I just can't figure out what to do and I'm at my wits end. I have always been tall and my weight was always distributed. My legs have always been slender now my whole body is fat and no matter what I do it doesn't work please help me I need help fast.
January 16, 2013 at 05:30 pm
IT'S TIME TO SAY GOOD-BYE TO NIGHT SWEATS AND ALL THE YUCK THAT POST-MENOPAUSE OFFERS ITS VICTIMS...NOT THIS FOF BEAUTY!
January 16, 2013 at 04:01 pm
I can use all the help I can get.
January 16, 2013 at 02:05 pm
Never thought I would be in the condition I am in. In April 2010 I ran a half marathon. In October of that year I had a ruptured aneurysm and almost died. Had major surgery followed by a long recovery. Seems I kept getting plagued with other issues and the weight kept piling on. I would love a makeover to try to find myself again. I have never been all about wanting or needing to look young....I just want to look the very best I can for my age.
January 16, 2013 at 02:05 pm
To feel more ageless
January 16, 2013 at 11:23 am

I feel it is time to make a change!
January 16, 2013 at 09:10 am
I want a "Menopause Makeover" because going through menopause my body has gone through many changes and some I am having a difficult time with. I have always been a woman who takes pride in herself and have always been very affectionate person and a cuddler, Menopause has completely taken away my sexual desires and that affectionate part of me and it has made me sad to be 52 yrs of age and feel like that part of my life is over! I have been with my boyfriend now for 12 years and we had a Great "Sex Life" and I feel so bad because I don't have the desire that I use to, I also have gained some weight and I just want to feel and be the Woman that I was and get back that Pizazz that went away! So I would Love some Help with this and absolutely would Love a "Menopause Makeover"
January 16, 2013 at 09:09 am

I just really need one, tired of feeling so out-of-sorts. It would be such a blessing to get back to a healthy weight, looking good and feeling good.....things I miss! There are thousands of entries so if it's meant to be it will happen, if not I will purchase the book and have a go on my own...

January 16, 2013 at 06:53 am
I am turning 50 this month and I need to change my diet and exercise routine for starters. I am trying to deal with Menopause not using any medication and want to make sure I am doing what I can to assist myself throughout this phase of my life.
January 16, 2013 at 04:47 am
I need a boost - I have gained weight - Even tough i know I am a strong woman I have been feeling pretty sluggish. Id like to get back the confidence and strength I had. I just can't seem to loose this wieght & not to mention these flashes. This would be such a boost....
January 16, 2013 at 04:43 am
I am not sure what to do with my body or the changes I am facing both mentally and physically. I feel an overwhelming lack of self confidence with all the hormonal changes and would love to feel more like "me" again.
Would love the help to give me direction.
January 16, 2013 at 04:00 am
I'm 54 yrs old, feel like I'm 35 but my weight has ballooned to over 70 lb overweight. 5'8 at 236 lbs and I would love to be around 160 or even 150 lbs. Work full-time, mother of 4 and grandmother of 2 boys. Need motivation to keep going.
January 16, 2013 at 03:55 am
I not only look and feel different, I am! How can I get comfortable in the new me? (I don't even know if I like me!)
January 16, 2013 at 03:12 am
I want a Menopause makeover because I have put on over 30 pounds. My family makes fun of me by saying I have an inner tube around my stomach--which makes me sad. I've tried dieting and exercise and only lost 10 pounds. Over the holidays I gained 5 pounds back. I feel old, and have trouble breathing during exertion. My doctor's say I need to lose the belly fat. I'm 50 years old and have all the symptoms of menopause. I've tried the Mic B shots and they didn't help. This is why I need a menopause makeover. I want to feel good about my body again.
January 16, 2013 at 03:06 am
As an empty nester and having just been let go from my job in television, I would love to have a menopause makeover to kickstart my Act 3 in life!
January 16, 2013 at 02:30 am
Weight gain is an issue and I now am getting more facial fullness along with sagging skin and wrinkles. I feel so young and don't look it!! Help!!!!!!!
January 16, 2013 at 01:29 am
I have been lossing a little weight but still do nopt feel I am getting the best results. This looks like it will make me feel and look better.
January 16, 2013 at 01:14 am
I always had a waistline and it seems like overnight I have become thick around the middle. I would like my hourglass figure back just so I can feel good about me.
January 16, 2013 at 12:45 am
My life as a mother of two busy teenagers can be chaos. I work full time and started a charter school in my local community and now I'm heading a building addition effort for the school. My daughter just turned 15 and is in her first school pageant. I would love to look my best when I do things with her and have the energy to keep up with all her activities. I turn 50 in February and its scary! I'm in good health and don't want it to slip away.
January 16, 2013 at 12:14 am
Since I entered menopause I have gained some weight and my hair has started to grey. I would love to see the old me.
January 16, 2013 at 12:02 am

January 15, 2013 at 11:14 pm
I want answers to my many issues
January 15, 2013 at 11:10 pm
Because there couldn't not be a better time to get a makeover than when you start living the second and best part of your life!
January 15, 2013 at 11:08 pm
To help me enjoy life to the fullest!
January 15, 2013 at 11:07 pm
I need help, would love a makeover. Need help adjusting to this time in my life.

I have been trying without success to loose weight.I have problems with my knees ,back and neck due to an on the job injury.I know that loosing weight will make life easier.My c reactive protein is also high and I'm hoping that loosing weight will lower this.

Would love to have this
January 15, 2013 at 10:33 pm
I want a Menopause Makeover because I'm in the 12 items or less line in the grocery store.
January 15, 2013 at 10:33 pm
I have tried everything nothing works. I'm so depressed.
January 15, 2013 at 10:33 pm
I have been on a mission to get healthy and fit for a couple of years now. I have started menopause and feel like things have come to a standstill. I need a plan that is right for me. I don't want to be the complaining menopausal woman.
January 15, 2013 at 10:26 pm
I had to have a hysterectomy 3 years ago when I was 41 - so many things have changed and not for the better! I feel like a crone most days & I'm hopeful that a makeover by someone who has "been there" would introduce positive changes for me and stop the cronehood!
January 15, 2013 at 10:18 pm
Since turning 50 , Im experianceing all the signs of menopause, hot flashes
January 15, 2013 at 10:09 pm
I have gained 20+ lbs and feel so frumpy - menopause is kicking my butt
January 15, 2013 at 10:05 pm
While the days, months, and years leading up to the big “M” may have their difficulties, life goes on. For many women it goes on and on with sleepless nights, tossing the covers on and off, weight gain, the dreaded dryness, and forgetting things. (I'm sure I forgot other symptoms on that list)!! Then menopause begins in earnest...or maybe not! A few months into what we think is menopause becomes a "period" of time when our emotions are being toyed with and we are tricked only to find ourselves on the way to the store to buy pads and tampons once again. So here I am trying to navigate my personal unknown journey into menopause. I’m desperate, desperate for my experience to be positive. Could it possibly be a time that isn’t dreaded but embraced? Am I deluded to believe that I will breeze through without a single annoying reminder of the "change"? Not a chance...especially since I'm already experiencing many of the symptoms that are on almost every list of peri-menopause and menopause symptoms. But I have hope. Hope that I will be someone who will gracefully navigate this era in my life with all it throws my way. Winning the menopause makeover might just be part of the catalyst that brings hope, grace, and a whole lot of fun to my personal menopause adventure.
January 15, 2013 at 09:59 pm
Because I have lost 60 pounds and have kept it off for a year but I have 40 more pounds to loose and it is just not coming off.
January 15, 2013 at 09:47 pm
I have lost 30 pounds in the last 9 months and have some more to go! I feel young and would like to look as youthful on the outside as I feel on the inside!
January 15, 2013 at 09:29 pm
I need to exercise and lose some weight before July
I feel my skin is dry and wrinkley
I want to feel Good, and look Good!
January 15, 2013 at 09:10 pm
I would love to have a Menopause Makeover to help me reinvent myself after the end of my 34-year marriage. I'm ready for a new start, and I'm sure things would be much more enjoyable with fewer pounds and some cool-jams sleepwear.
January 15, 2013 at 08:59 pm
I weigh more now than I did when I delivered my third child!! I am 52 and since the hot flashes started NOTHING I do makes me lose weight. Help!
January 15, 2013 at 08:53 pm
I'm stressed, exhausted, slightly overweight and very overworked! I'm a giver and love to help other people, but this year I vow to also take care of Me! A Menopause Makeover would be just what the doctor ordered!
January 15, 2013 at 08:38 pm
Oh my, I need it. I am too young (at heart) to be fat and frumpy. Seriously, where is the old me? See why I need a makeover!
January 15, 2013 at 08:34 pm
For about 5 years, I've endured extreme hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings etc.....when does it end??? I am not a candidate for HRT due to my Mom's breast cancer. My hair, skin, nails are dry..................in plain English, I'm a mess!!! So.............any help I can find would be a life saver..God Bless all who endure the same...
January 15, 2013 at 08:31 pm
I made the decision that 2013 would be the year that I 'reinvented' myself. I work in the health/wellness field, but I feel as though I'm only 'going through the motions'. I've gained weight around my mid-section and am not what I would consider a role model of health and wellness.
My goals are made and committed to paper. It would be an awesome gift to have the opportunity to receive coaching from Staness Jonekos to help me achieve success in my journey! Thank you for offering this makeover opportunity!
January 15, 2013 at 08:22 pm
I struggled for a couple of years after quitting smoking to lose the weight I put on. I was able to get down to goal weight on WW and 4-5 nights at the gym. I hit menopause and all that work went out the window. I stayed on WW (but the program changed at the same time) and continued going to the gym and the weight just kept adding on. Nothing seemed to help. I'm now 15 pounds heavier than I've ever been. I quit the gym because I couldn't justify the expense since I was getting no results. Same with WW, I'm counting calories on MyFitnessPal and trying to exercise at home but it's hard to get motivated when nothing seems to make any difference.
Thanks.
January 15, 2013 at 08:21 pm
I would love to have a makeovcer.
January 15, 2013 at 08:20 pm
I really have gone down in the last few years since I started gaining weight. I need discipline and I think this will help me to reach my goals of losing weight and getting back in shape.
January 15, 2013 at 08:08 pm
i need a new outlook
January 15, 2013 at 08:08 pm
I am 54 and have been in a make-up and hairstyle rut for 20 years!! HELP!! I want to update my look, but have NO idea where to start.
January 15, 2013 at 07:59 pm
I refuse to go silently into that "hot" night!
My own "personal summer" will not overcome me. But I could use some help!
January 15, 2013 at 07:56 pm
I don't want to gain weight during menopause
January 15, 2013 at 07:53 pm
That would be great.
January 15, 2013 at 07:53 pm
I sure wish I would win
January 15, 2013 at 07:52 pm
That would be great.
January 15, 2013 at 07:52 pm
since the menopause I have put on1.1/2 stone in weight,I hate it but can't seem to shift it,this would be my last chance to look faboverfifty,thank you Meg.
January 15, 2013 at 07:35 pm
Not only am I going through menoapause but I have a lot of other changes going on in my life. Finishing up a divorce, starting an empty nest, going back to work after being a stay at home mom for many years, and dating a man from my past, we first meet 30 years ago.I just want to look and feel my best so I can face these changes with confidence.
January 15, 2013 at 07:33 pm
I weigh the same as 6 months ago, but am bigger. Ugh. I am on HRT and still have daily and nightly hot flashes.
January 15, 2013 at 07:32 pm
Well,who would'nt want a menopause makeover?As a professional violinist mopping my brow thru a hotflash,managing not to pick up my music and fan myself with it, suspend the gravitational pull from my brow southward, cast aside the recently gained 20 lbs and midriff bulge-I dream of slipping back into my vintage Valintino gown,high heels and slamming thru Dvorak to Wagner with the professional experience of my age and spirit but with the renewed vigor and confidence in my body a life changing experience like a makeover can give.
January 15, 2013 at 07:32 pm
I would love to win the Makeover. I would love to jump start my losing weight. I have noticed since I have been in Menopause I have put on the pounds. I just lost my only son Robert on June 9, 2012 at the age of 35. (MEN - O - PAUSE)
January 15, 2013 at 07:20 pm
I have just started trying to get back into shape. My clothes don't fit, I have lots of hot flashes, and I am tired of looking and feeling this way.
January 15, 2013 at 06:55 pm
I want to be proud of my age not frumpy & slumpy. I want to show the women (and men) that menopause is a welcome thing that we all worked our way up to. We can't look like we're 20 but 20 year olds don't have the knowledge & class that we do at our age.
January 15, 2013 at 06:53 pm
I've noticed a few pounds adding up since menopause
January 15, 2013 at 06:44 pm
Who wouldn't at this time of your life!!!
January 15, 2013 at 06:27 pm
i don't like the way i look
January 15, 2013 at 06:19 pm
goood pretty
January 15, 2013 at 06:14 pm
Why not? :-)
January 15, 2013 at 06:12 pm
I'm tired of looking out of shape and feeling tired and worn out.
January 15, 2013 at 06:10 pm
I am sick and tired of my family doctor telling me that since entering menopause, there is no way for me to lose the extra 40 pounds I have gained . She actually told me just to "hang it up". I have tried everything, and only manage to lose a few pounds. I want to prove my doctor wrong!!! I want to feel sexy again for my hubby. Having this extra weight, along with all the stress of school, work and life takes a toll on a marriage.
January 15, 2013 at 06:09 pm
Because I am over 50 and need one!
January 15, 2013 at 06:05 pm
I just saw a picture premenopause and I want her back.
January 15, 2013 at 06:04 pm
I am in desperate need of this. I am fifty seven and feel like I am a hundred and fifty seven.
January 15, 2013 at 05:50 pm
Cause I'm beautiful just need some more help...
January 15, 2013 at 05:49 pm
I am 61-just started a new job and really need the help all the way around!!
January 15, 2013 at 05:48 pm
I would love to feel good about myself as I go through my 50's. My husband and I have been through so many life changes in the past 4 years(jobs,locations) and I feel it has taken a toll on both of us. I would love to be able to WOW him again:)
January 15, 2013 at 05:43 pm
Sailed through menopause, or so I thought, until 2 years later major stress kicked in and opened the door to miserable symptoms.
January 15, 2013 at 05:26 pm
I would love to win the Menopause Makeover. I have not had any luck losing weight, no matter what I try. I've tried pills, diets, cutting meals to one a day, and nothing works. I tried drinking alot of water and that started another problem. I do not leave my house unless I absolutely have to go to an appointment. I don't want friends or family to see the mess I am. I don't have the energy to exercise, even walk. It is so depressing. I have let myself go to the point that I usually stay in pajamas all day...no make-up, etc. I hate myself.
My husband once told me he was not "legally married" to half of me...hurt!
January 15, 2013 at 05:17 pm
What woman over 50 doesn't want a menopause makeover??!! I surely want and need one!The lack of sleep, stress and my body not bouncing back from exercise like it used to all add up to needing another "change"!
January 15, 2013 at 05:16 pm
I want to feel good about myself again.
January 15, 2013 at 05:13 pm
I am taking medication to force Menapause. My body has taken a toll. I want to take control and make healthy choices, reduce stress and my blood pressure.
January 15, 2013 at 05:13 pm
What else can I possibly say but ditto. I feel the same way that was so eloquently written by all the other women who wrote before me. I am turning 55, my daughter is getting married this coming fall and I desperately have been trying to get my "old self" back. I want her to be as proud as me as I am of her. Trouble is I'm not sure where I went and cannot find the way back to the person I once was. Does menopause really do this to us?? It is crazy, one morning you wake up and do not recognize the person who is staring back in the mirror. I have become my mother. It is not a bad thing, but I am not ready for that just yet. When did this happen? I used to think I was able to "whip" myself back into shape without too much of a struggle. Now I cannot find what department I belong in at the Department stores. I don't want to look ridiculous, just a healthier and happier "old self" me. Thank-you for this opportunity.
January 15, 2013 at 05:10 pm
I have never felt so unattractive and dowdy in my life.
January 15, 2013 at 05:04 pm
I am a mess and need all the help I could get. I am 54 and my face is sagging.. lips are fading, my skin is so spotted and aged. I just wish I could get healthy.
January 15, 2013 at 04:53 pm
Since getting married six months ago, I think I've gained about five pounds and definitely have a little belly that I'd like to get rid of.
January 15, 2013 at 04:51 pm
OMG WHY WOULDN'T ANY WOMAN! THIS ISN'T ANY FUN AND HOW HARD IS IT TO KEEP YOUR SPIRITS UP WHEN YOU FEEL LIKE YOU ARE DRYING/WRINKLING UP LIKE AN OLD PRUNE. FOR A SINGLE WOMAN IT'S EVEN HARDER. NEED I SAY MORE!
January 15, 2013 at 04:50 pm
it's way overdue
January 15, 2013 at 04:48 pm
I would love to win because I would love hair and makeup fixes for the more mature me!
January 15, 2013 at 04:45 pm
I am trying very hard to lose my menopause weight by watching my diet (cutting all carbs), exercising. I have currently have lost 44 pounds. But I would still like to have some remedies for the other menopause remedies (hot flashes, night sweats) to complete my "menopause makeover"!!!!
January 15, 2013 at 04:43 pm
I want a Menopause Makeover because I will be turning 50 this year and I'm already feeling depressed about it ;( I would also like to feel better about myself.
January 15, 2013 at 04:41 pm
to make me feel better mentally and physically.
January 15, 2013 at 04:39 pm
I haven't changed my look in over 20 years, and now with middle age creeping up on me, I need a change!
January 15, 2013 at 04:37 pm
I am not where I thought I would be at this point in my life. Well, menopause was predictable...but I didn't see myself single again and having gone through my 2nd hip replacement this past year. I also didn't see myself this happy and feeling this empowered for this second phase of my life! I am ready to grab life by the horns. Starting dating again, maybe?? I am ready to get in shape and for the first time in my life actually find out my true potential and push myself to the limit!
I am ready for a Menopause Makeover because Menopause is HOT! and so am I! (sometimes too hot...but hey, I know things can be worse!)
Anne
January 15, 2013 at 04:36 pm
I need it! I could use the advice. Thanks
January 15, 2013 at 04:32 pm
I had lost 50 pounds by the end of 2011. However, I fell twice last year and was unable to exercise and gained it all back. It would be wonderful to have help lose the weight and get back into shape.

I was diagnosed with an enlarged thyroid in July 2012. March 2012 I had my thyroid biospied with suspicious enlarged nodes (yep cancer) By the time I had my surgery in May my cancer spread to my lymphnodes in my neck. During this time I was and still am going through menopause! Since the thyroid helps controls your body's temperature ( I no longer have one) and since mine wasnt working to begin with you can imagine what my sweating looked like! I dont have moist sweat beads form on my brow and sweaty pits or moisture under my breasts, I look like a walking shower! My hair forms sweat balls on the tip of my hair, I have streams of sweat that run down my face (I no longer wear makeup) my underwear is drenched (I carry a couple of pairs in my car) I no longer can wear pants because the sweat stains on my thighs look like I just worked out Michael Strahan...Im forced to wear big dresses and nothing form fitting because of the embarressment! So this is my last hope every professional I spoke with told me this is what I have to live with...I say no *&^%$ way. There has to be someone out there that can help me..hoping there is someone out there that can help me..

I feel like a wreck since menopause has set in. I live in a rural area, and there are no physicians who specialize in menopausal women near here. The only OB/GYN here only takes pregnant women. I really need some help before I can't even recognize myself physically or mentally. Good luck, gals!!! I know we are all worthy
January 15, 2013 at 04:20 pm
I am a mother to two children and a wonderful husband. My entire life I have spent taking care of everyone else but myself. A menopause makeover will help me start a new chapter in my life. By that I mean, that I will stop waiting and hoping for my husband to take me out. Instead I can feel confident about myself and I can take myself out and feel good. That part of myself that reflects on what I have done over the past 30 years feels unsatisfied because I forgot that I am someone important and that I deserve to feel like a woman who has made it to 50 and is proud of herself. I believe it would help me start a new chapter. I currently do not have the financial means to make myself feel good. I have always made sure the bills get paid, there is dinner at the table and food in the fridge. I make sure my kids and husband have everything they need. Currently the financial budget is only for necessities. It would be a wonderful Christmas present for myself to begin a new year with a positive attitude where I can stop feeling ashamed about how I look. Thank you for reading my submission.
Sincerely,
Ludmila Novikov
January 15, 2013 at 04:19 pm
Because i don't recognize myself....it is a stranger in the mirror.
January 15, 2013 at 04:10 pm
I really need this.
January 15, 2013 at 04:05 pm
yes i do i feel like i am still in the 70s
January 15, 2013 at 04:00 pm
why not! i want to win this!
January 15, 2013 at 03:49 pm
I had a total Hysterectomy when I was 24 years old, I am now 51. I have tried to follow the medical advice about HRT, using Progesterone, etc. As you know, there is always new evidence and different opinions. I have found a Naturpathic Doctor who specializes in hormones, not just Estrogen but all of them. She has helped me to become more balanced out. I am feeling much better but I have been basically going through Menopause for 27 years. I have been through 27 years of trying to find the right balance and suffice it to say, it hasn't been easy. A Menopause Makeover will help me to make sure that I am taking the best care of myself as possible. Thank you for the opportunity to win this great prize
January 15, 2013 at 03:47 pm
Aging and menopause, I wasn't aware of what was to or wasnot to come. Youth behind me, and life still to live I want to be comfortable, confident and beautiful. Aging doesn't mean you fall apart, shut down and wait to die. Well, I am glad there are resources available to help a girl cope with these changes brought on by menopause. Each element included in this prize are well needed! I wait.
January 15, 2013 at 03:42 pm
After years of taking care of others oit is my turn to rerdiscover my internal and external pizazz.
January 15, 2013 at 03:42 pm
I have always been petite, even during the first two years after menopause, however, and a new list of health issues and subsequent medications two years ago, have taken me from 110 lbs. to 147 lbs. and climbing. In addition to digestive disease, fibromyalgia, osteoarthritis, osteopenia, and Sjorgen's Syndrome, I have valvular heart disease since childhood. All this extra weight is putting a strain on me that my body is not equipped to handle, and I've gotten caught in a vicious cycle to where I need to get a certain amount of exercise, but the continuous weight gain makes it more and more difficult. I am making some medication changes, but I need more help than that.
January 15, 2013 at 03:39 pm
Going through menopause is wreaking havoc on my body! This makeover would be a great boost for me entering into the next phase of life.
January 15, 2013 at 03:39 pm
Because menopause did a mean thing to my body.
January 15, 2013 at 03:37 pm
I try to keep in good shape and eat well. No matter what I do I can't get rid of the belly. I want to stay active and be healthy so I can continue to enjoy activities with my family and friends well into old age. I need a plan I can follow and will hold me accountable.
January 15, 2013 at 03:18 pm
Boy....do I need it!
January 15, 2013 at 03:14 pm
because i need it
January 15, 2013 at 02:56 pm
I think it is important to understand all aspects of female health.
January 15, 2013 at 02:52 pm
I would love a Menopause Makeover because I have gone through a rough divorce and became depressed and have always had a thyroid problem, but the stress made it worse. Trying very hard to get back to where I feel like a person and want to feel confident in myself again.
January 15, 2013 at 02:47 pm
I want to give the makeover to my aunt Carol who is Fab and over Fifty:-)
January 15, 2013 at 02:44 pm
Winning this would be such a blessing since I am also struggling with menopause and the negative side effects of it...... I pray I could be a successful testimony to help myself and others through this. Thank you!!!!
January 15, 2013 at 02:42 pm
Who doesn't want to look and feel their best!!?? I still have so many things I want to accomplish, and I want to be taken seriously. I think that projecting a healthy, robust image helps that happen. Thanks!
January 15, 2013 at 02:39 pm
I will be turning 55 this year and have been in menopause for the last five years. I want the "old" me back! I never had problems with my weight, or sleeping, or energy levels. I would love a menopause makeover to help turn things around and get back to normalcy!
January 15, 2013 at 02:32 pm
Anything to make me feel better.
January 15, 2013 at 02:27 pm
I need a makeover!
January 15, 2013 at 02:22 pm
I AM the poster child for menopause and in desperate need of a makeover since being assaulted by the ravages and extra poundage that comes along with menopause. I have 3 sizes of clothing in my closet and know, full-well, with the right regimen I can return to my former glory. It's trapped there somewhere. Help me!
January 15, 2013 at 02:15 pm
I 'need' a menopause maker. I've been struggling with this for a few years now.
January 15, 2013 at 02:00 pm
the last several years have presented many challenges both personally and professionally. I am on the other side now and a make over would be the perfect way to kick off the new year.
January 15, 2013 at 01:56 pm
because I would like to feel good about my self and my age.
January 15, 2013 at 01:53 pm
i'm hot but don't look hot!
January 15, 2013 at 01:50 pm
Menopause has not been easy. First impressions count and I want to be the best ME I can be!!! Winning this would be like a fresh start or a 2nd chance. It's easy to look cute when you are young, advice on a mature, seasoned, hip and up to date look would be welcomed!!!!!!
January 15, 2013 at 01:48 pm
after 4 children,I really need a makeover, it would be nice to have this after 8 years looking the same!
January 15, 2013 at 01:38 pm
I'm really nervous about what I'm experiencing and not sure what to expect next. I have heard so many horror stories that I just want some good solid healthy practical information.
I have already begun the night sweats & I am now noticing even with exercise my weight has increased. How do you get to a place where u can comfortably and stress-free live with menopause?
January 15, 2013 at 01:37 pm
Because I've let myself go and am having a difficult time finding my way back to being a person that likes herself.
January 15, 2013 at 01:32 pm
I would like to win because I am clueless in how to manage my hot flashes and night sweats,none of my clothes fit since I have gained 20 plus pounds. Also trying to quit smoking so it would be a complete life style for me.
January 15, 2013 at 01:28 pm
I have not slept thru the night in 4 yrs, cant stand the hot flashes and my look need updating bad, just not feeling the whole life is better after menopause thing.
January 15, 2013 at 01:22 pm
Because I've just started menopause and after 5 weeks of hot flashes and night sweats I'm already aggravated with it. I want to do whatever I can to make it a less annoying experience then it's been so far.
January 15, 2013 at 01:20 pm
I just had my 60th birthday and I am feeling very old. Please help me with a makeover!!!
January 15, 2013 at 01:15 pm
I went through menopause in my early 40's. I'll be 50 in September and want to be in the best shape of my life - but can't get motivated because I can work out and watch what I eat for weeks and then gain everything back in one weekend of eating what I want. It's very depressing - I was always thin as a teen. I'm also very tired so it is hard to be motivated to workout. Lots of changes have come with menopause!
January 15, 2013 at 01:15 pm
I am 53 years old and dealing with all of the issues of Menopause (I won't bother to list them here, you know what they are). I lead a very active lifestyle; I'm an avid skier, I bike 40-60 miles at a time, my family and I trekked to Matchu Pichu in June but I feel like I'm starting to look old. I hate the waddle under my arms, my eyelids now touch my eyelashes, and my hair has lost all of its luster. I've been a pretty low maintenance gal (curly hair does have one advantage as long as you don't try to change its mind every morning) but I need to start maintaining and I just don't know where to start. I also live in Colorado where the extraordinarily dry climate is not my friend. Please help me!
January 15, 2013 at 01:13 pm
I have gain so much weight that I am depressed. I have tried to get it off. I am on depression meds and they are not helping. I do not have a thyroid and it is very hard to get 100 plus pounds off by yourself, no knowledge of what or how to. I am a nurse and would like to look somewhat healthy for my pts. It is not good for my health
to be this large. Nothing seems to work. I could really use a coach and helper to try to get this off. I do not feel good around anyone, my husband, son, their friends. I do not feel I have friends because of it, I know that is silly, but I feel helpless. I am also HOT all the time, and I know it could be caused by the weight and memopause.
thanks for listening. I would love to win a makeover !!!!
January 15, 2013 at 01:12 pm
I am getting married this summer and I would like to shed a few extra pounds? I would like to tone up my upper body, too.
January 15, 2013 at 01:10 pm
I went through early Menopause at 40 and am now 54 and still need a exercise program that will help with diet and exercise
January 15, 2013 at 01:05 pm
I have RA and would like an exercise program that would work for me. It it hard for me to exercise due to the pain but there has to be something I can do to help me remain mobile.
January 15, 2013 at 01:05 pm
Love a new look
January 15, 2013 at 01:01 pm
I have not felt great in such a long time. A makeover would surely help me to feel better about myself.
January 15, 2013 at 01:01 pm
Because all of the things that I have been doing to stay healthy- diet and exercise,etc-aren't working now that my periods have stopped!
January 15, 2013 at 12:59 pm
would love to win this prize
January 15, 2013 at 12:58 pm
I want a menopause makeover to get myself back into shape, learn healthy diet habits and feel great about myself. I feel it is important to maintain your body at an optimal level at any age. You can be at your best regardless of age. It is a positive outlook and good health habits that promote good health.
January 15, 2013 at 12:55 pm
I'm moving forward with my life and would love to
and feel great doing it.
bring it on.
January 15, 2013 at 12:54 pm
Hi Staness, I would love the Menopause Makeover, because the last 2 year was such a roller coaster!! I went through so many changes in mood, hot-flashes, and incredible amount for blood loss! (sorry, kind of graphic) I was on bed rest for 6 weeks, because of bleeding, while waiting for my Hysterectomy Surgery, August 29, 2012! It was so hard on my whole family and well as myself! I was trying to balance my New Job, two teenage daughters, husband, and my 85 year old father, who lives with us! Everyone pitched in, but it took its toll!
You have been a life saver!! You give me courage and hope! I have read your book, and follow you on Facebook. I am now feeling like a NEW WOMAN!! I'm more focused, I am present for my family! I'm an actual participant now, instead of feeling like I'm "lost in a fog"!! I'm back to work too! I have my own home business, with Partylite, which I totally love!!
Now my goal is to lose this weight, that I have gained over the last 2 years!! I have 50lbs to lose (as of today 48lbs) and I know that I can do it!! I am committed to getting the weight off, by Dec., 2013! I will be 50 years old in July, so my mantra is 150lbs at 50!!
Your awesome!!
Blessings,
Vicki DeBoer
January 15, 2013 at 12:54 pm
I am so frustrated that I cannot seem to get in shape no matter how long I visit the gym. I really need help!
January 15, 2013 at 12:52 pm
I get stress related hot flashes and need a support sysytem to loose 30+ lbs....this Menopause Makeover would do much to remedy these problems and improve my life.
January 15, 2013 at 12:49 pm
I am having a terrible time with Menopause.
January 15, 2013 at 12:47 pm
I just want to lose this belly fat and look beautiful again at 52! :)
January 15, 2013 at 12:46 pm
I went threw menopause early in life and my body has changed for the worst... everything is falling and my skin does not look healthy
January 15, 2013 at 12:40 pm
i've never had anything like this offer. 'twould be really nice to be pampered and to learn a few tricks (exercise!). i am already on weight watchers - again :]
January 15, 2013 at 12:37 pm
I'm a menopausal maniac and I haven't worn a bathing suit since my third son was born (am 57 turning 58). The back of my legs look like an atlas. I need help. Pretty please???
January 15, 2013 at 12:36 pm
It is AWESOME to fool Mother Nature! Who said we have to play by the rules? Age doesn't have any rules.
January 15, 2013 at 12:34 pm
i would love this just starting menopause
January 15, 2013 at 12:34 pm
Already 2 weeks into my New Year's plan to lose 20-40 lbs and could use the coaching and support to sustain the diet change. Since I work 45-50 hours a week and commute another 3 hours a day, I find that I have little time to incorporate any exercise into my daily routine. Could sure use help with a fitness plan and support to continue to squeeze out the time.
In addition, I see myself needing to work (husband is self-employed/terminally unemployed) well into my 60s, in an industry (construction) that is not always kind to women. I would love to continue to look and feel younger than my actual age in order to compete in the marketplace and earn my true value.
January 15, 2013 at 12:32 pm
I need this makeover because I feel fat and ugly. I have just as much stomach as I have behind. I go shopping and I cry. Nothing I put on makes me happy. It seems like I have been going through menopause forever.I cut back on what I eat and eat very little junk food. I try to walk at least 1 1/2 miles a day, doesn't always happen. I need help PLEASE.
January 15, 2013 at 12:27 pm
I could use all of the help I can get!
January 15, 2013 at 12:26 pm
I need one badly....
January 15, 2013 at 12:24 pm
because it's coming
January 15, 2013 at 12:23 pm
I have just recently quit smoking (6 weeks ago) and am on week three of the South Beach diet...i am 51 and almost 52...and want to be healthy and get this excess 35 lbs off! I got clean and sober 4.5 years ago, but have gained alot of weight since then. My new life is so wonderful and I am have set the goal of this being the year of taking care of me!
January 15, 2013 at 12:20 pm
I just feel flabby and so out of shape. I would love to feel better again.
January 15, 2013 at 12:14 pm
I have been struggling with menopause for the last 15 years !! Hot flashes, weight gain, dry skin..the whole 9 yards. I have about exhausted all other options, and still no relief. I would really love you're help Staness. Thanks for considering me ! Can I start today ??
January 15, 2013 at 12:13 pm
I feel since I turned 50, despite exercise, I can't keep the pounds off. I'm currently 26lb. overweight and am at a loss.
I also feel like I'm in a rut...everyday is the same, it's like the movie "Groundhog Day". I need something to shake up my life, bring a new zest and a new look for a new me!
Thank you!
January 15, 2013 at 12:07 pm
Why wouldn't I? I would be crazy to pass on this opportunity and I am not crazy!!! For the past five years my body has not been kind to me at all! Sex life is non-existant so maybe Replens along with the makeover will bring peace and harmony back to once was...? I know my hubby would love that! Ha ;-}
January 15, 2013 at 12:07 pm
Ever since I turn 40, I let myself go, and I just can't get out of this rut! and when I complain about the way I get treated at work, and places I go to, my family and friends tell me that I need to look decent, but I my body issues are a problem! So I do need help! And I hope you choose me.
January 15, 2013 at 12:06 pm
Why I need a Menopause Makeover. The answers are endless. I have put on weight. I am dressing frumpy. I am tired all the time. I am red in the face most days due to hot flashes. I can't remember when I last had a good night sleep. sigh
January 15, 2013 at 12:05 pm
Pick me please!!! I'm 45 and had breast cancer at 38 and surgical menopause. I'm a long term survivor now and I'm tired of being offered the senior menu or being told how nice it is that I'm out with my grandchildren. (My kids age 8 and 11). HELP!
January 15, 2013 at 12:03 pm
It's not so much a question of "want", it's a question of "need". Yes, I NEED a Menopause Makeover!
January 15, 2013 at 12:03 pm
I'm 57 gained 30 lbs since menopause, I'm un-employed and looking for a job, and it sure would help me get on the right track. I could use a boost and this sounds like it would do just that.
I know there are many other women more deserving of this but I know I would appreciate it alot and would be very thankful if I won.
Thank you for this chance
January 15, 2013 at 12:03 pm
This would support all of my new year's resolutions to take control of my health and well-being. Timing of this is absolutely perfect! What a difference this could make to recharge, renew after years of neglect.....
January 15, 2013 at 12:02 pm
I want a Menopause Makeover because I want to feel like I am truly living every day again. I have six children and 3 grandchildren. I was an athlete, was a working single mom with six, as one daughter said I was Super woman to her and now it appears as though I have aged overnight. I do not have the energy to play rounds of tennis, don't have the same belief that I can do things, my diet is not good, it appears that I can't eat the same things I used to, and my skin and happy and youthful appearance seems gone. I want to eat right, no that I can exercise again and not pull something, and be someone that my kids and grandkids what to have fun with. I have been looking at diet books, the talk shows and taking notes on all the things I should eat, I need some direction! I guess I should buy this book, had not heard about it until I got your email! Thank you. Here's to a Menapause Makeover!! a new beginning....
January 15, 2013 at 12:01 pm
Menopause may have hit me later (at 56) but it was like getting hit by a semi on the highway! hair loss! night sweats! weight gain! MENOPOT! lichen sclerosis! All at the same time as falling in love and the arrival of grandchildren - HELP!
January 15, 2013 at 11:59 am
For the last few years... I have been in a depression and really let myself go after the death of my mom. I had moved back to help with my step dad who passed away 3 yrs after I moved back. After that, I stayed with my mom and we became best friends---so when she passed away unexpectedly in 2009... I took it extremely hard.
Anyway, fast forwarding.. I have decided that 2013 I want to get myself under control and find myself and get back into life.. I have put on weight (about 100 lbs), and just let myself go --- Winning this, I hope will push me in the right direction!
Thanks for reading!
January 15, 2013 at 11:58 am
I'm caught in a vicious cycle. I'm overweight, out of shape and have a negative self image. As a result, not matter how much I try to make positive changes, I find myself making the same bad decisions that got me into this mess in the first place. I believe getting some one-on-one advice and having a structured plan would help my move forward in a positive direction.
January 15, 2013 at 11:57 am
The reason I NEED a makeover is I'm 56 mother of 3 grown boys and soon to 1st time grandmother. I feel younger than I look and I want to look like I feel.
We are moving back to our home state of Texas from Colorado and it's the perfect time to do that I would love to put my roots back in Texas looking and feeling the best I can.
January 15, 2013 at 11:54 am
At 64, I am engaged and ready for a new look and new life!!
January 15, 2013 at 11:48 am
Help me. Please!
Thanks,
:-D
January 15, 2013 at 11:46 am
Well, the hot flashes may be a big pain (those sheets sound great) but that weight gain that seems never to decrease no matter what you DON'T eat and clothes that just do not look good on one any more, YES
these are some of the reasons that this would be perfect for me.
January 15, 2013 at 11:46 am
I recently retired, and I would love to start my retirement in the best shape I've ever been in! I need to tone up and lose some weight. Having a personal consultant to aid me in this wonderful journey could only help make it all the more successful!
January 15, 2013 at 11:45 am
I just turned 55 and finally realized that I still have a lot of good years left but not in my current physical condition. My self-esteem is pretty low and think that if I could win this makeover, I would feel better about myself and be able to finally enjoy my life.
January 15, 2013 at 11:43 am
when it comes to menoapause any help and or suggestions to help feel pretty again I am so open to. it's a very difficult time and acceptance to all of us to realize certain things will happen during this time in our lives !
January 15, 2013 at 11:43 am
i am 69 years old,people say i look 50.i have too much fat around my middle,i walk and exercise daily.i need help.
January 15, 2013 at 11:43 am
Simple: I want to look and feel better all the prizes are a wonderful too. But the free consultation with Staness Jonekos would be a blessing.
January 15, 2013 at 11:41 am
Who wouldn't want to win this? LOL
January 15, 2013 at 11:41 am
For me, the reason has to do with finally knowing who I am, where I want to be, and how I want to spend the rest of my life. Included in that, is the knowledge that I am still attrative, not only to my husband of 25 years, but to myself. Healthy, Happy and Fit; Two out of three isn't going to cut it. I need this makeover.
January 15, 2013 at 11:40 am
Of all the women in the world, I need this badly. I look at the mirror and question "Is this me??". This would really brighten my spirits and help me go in a positive directions. I just turned the big "60" this year and want to look my best--so please help me.
January 15, 2013 at 11:37 am
By do I need a makeover. I feel like like I am old, but I am really not to old, (55), I work full time and am married and I have a 15 year old son. Teenager at 55, boy is that difficult. I had my son when I was 40 so that was a blessing at that time, now I am going through menopause with a teenager. How awful. I would love to have some time for me ME, because there is no word me in my family, it is always him, both for husband and son.
January 15, 2013 at 11:35 am
I am 54 years old and have been dealing with menopause since I was 48. 20 pounds later and many sleepless nights, I cannot loose an ounce. I continue to have nights sweats, hot flashes and I am watching my entire body dry up as the days go by. I feel this makeover would be the needed boost needed for my self esteem as well as my overall health.
January 15, 2013 at 11:33 am
I'd love the Menopause Makeover because I'd like to look and feel the best I can!
January 15, 2013 at 11:32 am
I'd like a menopause makeover because I want to feel as gorgeous outside as I do inside! As a busy mother of 3, I'm pressed for time and I have very little extra time to pay attention to myself. This sounds like a great way to start the new year!
January 15, 2013 at 11:32 am
I want a Menopause Makeover because I'm in the middle of “a living nightmare” too!
January 15, 2013 at 11:31 am
i want this because I am tired of trying everything else..this just may be what I've been looking for!
January 15, 2013 at 11:31 am
What woman would not want a Menopause Makeover! I have been suffering from hot flashes & weight gain for way too long now! I am an attractive 62 yr old, and many days do not feel attractive due to these problems. I also have health issues yet I know that losing weight would also help! Thank you for this opportunity!
January 15, 2013 at 11:30 am
During the time I have been menopausal, I have gained weight, become a river of sweat and need help! I am experiencing extremely low self esteem and feel that this makeover would be such a needed boost for me. This time of life is very draining and a makeover like this would be so energizing.
January 15, 2013 at 11:30 am
Started menopause at 30. Would love help with my hair and style. HELP PLEASE
January 15, 2013 at 11:28 am
Because I could use a little help after just celebrating 55
January 15, 2013 at 11:27 am
It would be interesting to see myself in a new look, and I am curious.
January 15, 2013 at 11:26 am

January 15, 2013 at 11:18 am
It is past time for a makeover. I have had the same look, wear my makeup the same, same type clothes for years. I am ready to freshen up my look so I can look and feel better!
January 15, 2013 at 11:17 am
Its time for a change!!! I want to look 10 years younger and with my birthday coming up next month, what a great present!
January 15, 2013 at 11:17 am
I'm going through menopause which in it's own right is powerful, night sweats are out of this world! In addition, I've other prominent health problems, that I've a difficult time controlling. Congestive heart failure, diabetes 2, HBP, and a few other's that I cannot spell. That's playing havoc in my life.
January 15, 2013 at 11:17 am
I am in a menopause slump - no labido, no drive, no fun....i need help to revive my old self for i am starting to forget what i used to be like..
January 15, 2013 at 11:14 am
Who doesn't want a make over.... now that my body is in new unfamiliar territory, I'd love a make over to help me be the best FOF I can be!!!
January 15, 2013 at 11:14 am
I am out of date and frumpy - I need some help!
January 15, 2013 at 11:14 am
I want my old body back, please!
January 15, 2013 at 11:13 am
Oh, how do I need this Menopause Makeover? Let me count the ways:
1) A belly that just won't quit (or shrink)
2) Skin that is lackluster and flabby
3) A mood that is lethargic and crabby
Pick me, pick me!
January 15, 2013 at 11:12 am
Because I don't feel like I have control over my body any more.
January 15, 2013 at 11:11 am
Just in time! I need a make-over, please! :-)
January 15, 2013 at 11:11 am
The dreaded menopause belly pouch. Thats it. It makes me feel terrible. :(
January 15, 2013 at 11:11 am
Whew! So hard to sleep when I'm waking up raining sweat!
January 15, 2013 at 11:09 am
My age has crept up on me in the last year. I see fine lines that won't go away, sagging skin that I need to cover and an empty feeling towards my husband that I love very much. It's been a tough year for many reasons, and I lack the motivation to move past it - although I have all the tools at my fingertips. So, what the hell - let's try something completely out of the box!
January 15, 2013 at 11:07 am
it would terrific to enjoy a menopause makeover. I really need one. Since going through menopause, I have been dealing with day/night hot flashes, a 20 pound weight gain, a bout with cancer (all fine now!), and continue to be my dear mom's caregiver (she is 89 with dementia)
sure would love to win. many thanks!
January 15, 2013 at 11:06 am
Feeling like an Alien is in my body makes me want a Menopause Makeover to actually feel like a human being again!! Please pick me!! I have a YOUNG CHICK that wants to come out and PLAY!!
January 15, 2013 at 11:06 am
I really need it...help! I need to jumpstart a regime to get myself back!
January 15, 2013 at 11:06 am
I need a big change.
January 15, 2013 at 11:06 am
I REALLY would LOVE a menopause makeover to help me feel younger. Thanks!
January 15, 2013 at 11:05 am
Put on ten pounds after each child three children later need to turn back rime
January 15, 2013 at 11:04 am
I am "61" but would love a menopause makeover!! I have Progressive MS and my weight has gotten "away from me" over the past few years. My granddaughter, Miss Gabby (3 years old) asked me last Friday if I was carrying a baby so I know that I need your help.
January 15, 2013 at 11:03 am

January 15, 2013 at 11:02 am
Dying to lose the weight, stop the spread, and handle the hot flashes!
January 15, 2013 at 11:01 am

Our son is growing up and my you her husband of 18 yrs looks great! Just want to feel better and I would love to be his arm candy ( te he ) once agn ;D
January 15, 2013 at 11:01 am
When we reach this age, have a little wisdom, know a thing or two, it's just wrong that these "things" should start to happen to us!
January 15, 2013 at 11:01 am
At 55 I could use a much deserved makeover!
January 15, 2013 at 10:59 am
I want to tone up areas.
January 15, 2013 at 10:59 am
I'm still young at heart but I am stuck in a rut. I need a new look, inside and out to spark up my life.
January 15, 2013 at 10:58 am
I'm excited about being in my fifties! I just don't want to look or feel I'm in them. Hot flashes .. if I could only give them away! I dislike walking by my mirror, because it's a reflection of me not caring for the most important person - me. I want to enjoy spending fun time with my teenage daughter; who surprisingly loves for us to do activities together. It'll change once she heads off to college! I want be healthy and active. I don't want to hide my age, but to represent and embrace it!!
January 15, 2013 at 10:58 am
I am at the point in my life where a makeover would be quite welcomed. My son is in University and I am feeling the empty nest syndrome. Also, being afflicted with an auto immune disease and debilitating degenerative disc disease, I am convinced that a makeover would lift my spirits.
January 15, 2013 at 10:57 am
Any help that anyone can provide me regarding menopause would be so greatly appreciated. I am so tired of waking up sweating throughout the night, my muffin top and lack of energy and memory -- it is so frustrating and my kids are always picking on me about it
January 15, 2013 at 10:56 am
Need to help someone
January 15, 2013 at 10:55 am
To look and feel good and healthy, also looking good lets me feel more confident and active
January 15, 2013 at 10:54 am
HELP! I SO need this makeover and promise Staness Jonekos to follow her plan and stick to it! I am 53 and in desperate need of a makeover. I have been doing the same routine forever, both with beauty and health. I know it is time for a change! Every time I look in the mirror I wonder why my mother is staring back at me (and she is 91!). I'm in menopause and can't believe the changes happening to me. Needless to say, my husband and two sons just don't understand what is going on. I've always wanted to learn yoga and to have the cool-jams and ColdFront sounds like heaven! I know this message sounds like it's "all about me", but making a better me makes a better wife and mother, etc. Thank you for this opportunity!!
January 15, 2013 at 10:54 am
Every woman in their 50's feels like things are changing and starting to go south so rapidly, that we all wish we could get a bit of an uplift both bodily and emotionally to get our groove back ;)
January 15, 2013 at 10:54 am
I am 53 and up until the last year I have never had a problem with my weight. Now I can't get rid of it. I need a complete overhaul.
January 15, 2013 at 10:52 am
I can't believe what I see when I look in the mirror - in my heart and abilities I still feel young - HELP!!!
January 15, 2013 at 10:50 am
Any woman entering into menopause should never do it alone! There are so many changes - issues that are taking place in my body, there's no way to know what is normal from what isn't normal. In my personal journey, every women I've talked to who has taken the trip or starting the trip have some of the same as well as various symptoms emotionally, physically, psychologically and every other area. I am learning that no to women experience the same symptoms. I often talk with me mother about my "changes" and it's like I am talking Greek. She went through the change flawlessly with very few issues, I, on the other hand, have every symptom from night sweats, irritability, headaches, cramping, memory fogs, sweaty palms, blotting, hyperthyroidism, depression, over-active sexual desires, no sexual desires, insomnia, food craving, sensitive breast....you name it, I at some point, experience it in a 30 day cycle. It is total madness. Any consolations I can get as a result of traveling this road will be a try blessing!!! That's why I want a Menopause Makeover.
January 15, 2013 at 10:46 am
I want a menopause makeover because at 58 years old having raised three children I feel this is my time to look good as well as feel good.
January 15, 2013 at 10:45 am
Trying to juggle newly (ie last week) teenage twin sons, a 20 year old son with an acquired brain injury following a traffic accident, run my own business and the household on my own leaves little time to focus on me. This prize would be just the thing to make me find the time (and maybe salvage a little sanity!)
January 15, 2013 at 10:45 am
Recent traumatic events in my life have left me out of control, with eating, exercising and just generally keeping up appearances. I really need a makeover at this time in my life to feel better about myself.
January 15, 2013 at 10:44 am
I never thought menopause would happen to me, but here I am, right in the middle of it! I would love this makeover! I need this makeover! I would so diligently use this makeover!
January 15, 2013 at 10:42 am
I need this desperately!!
January 15, 2013 at 10:41 am
Everybody who has been in menopause will know why, you are just so under the weather at the worst times.
January 15, 2013 at 10:41 am
Why not? Nothing to lose by trying and I could use the help from someone who has been there; done that!
January 15, 2013 at 10:40 am
I need a makeover to help me with my look and style. I worked in a factory for 31 years and know nothing about style, makeup or healthy tips. I am 54 yrs old and have not realy started menopause yet and I am afraid when I do it will be sudden and harsh. I have no family or close friends to go to for advice, so I need all the help I can get. I want to be ready for this new chapter in my life.
January 15, 2013 at 10:39 am
OMG! I am 55 years old and didn't realize it until I looked in the mirror last week! It struck me like a brick. Age has never been an issue, I have always acted and thought like a 25 year old! In the past I have never had a problem with my weight or motivation. In the past few years it seems that my whole body has gone into a tail-spin. I think am doing everything I can to stay in shape... EVERYTHING.. dieting, exercising, reading and searching for answers. I just can't do this alone... I am driving my husband and family crazy. I am desperate. Please I need someone to help me!
January 15, 2013 at 10:39 am
For the past couple of years I've been working out at the gym regularly, 3 -5 times a week. But since I've hit the big "50" last spring, my weight loss seems to be at a stand still. This year I want to break through this slump and make progress but I need help. I"d love a makeover so I could learn how to adjust my fitness and eating habits to become a healthier, leaner and stronger me.
January 15, 2013 at 10:38 am
I could really use this makeover. Since menopause hit me everything has gone down hill and I don't like it. I can't afford insurance so can't go to a doctor to get everything back on course so maybe this would bring some stability back into my life.
January 15, 2013 at 10:36 am
Because its time to take control and get ready for the rest of my life!! So much to be done in creative realms and want health and stamina as my support.
January 15, 2013 at 10:36 am
well i think I need a make over, have made no changes in my looks for years thanks
January 15, 2013 at 10:34 am
tired of looky and feeling frumpy
January 15, 2013 at 10:32 am
I would like my body to reflect the way i feel. I am told I look good but when I look at myself without the spanks,
make up and hair done.....I feel old....I am very interested
In nutrition and eat right but I can't seem to get my belly in shape...I need help!!!!
Mimi
January 15, 2013 at 10:32 am
Menopause is a dirty word!!!! Going through this process has claimed my body, my mind and my self-esteem, and I want all three back!!!! To some women menopause barely affects them, this "disease" has claimed me hook, line and sinker and I would love to be the WINNER of this contest, many thanks for the opportunity.
January 15, 2013 at 10:32 am
Events of the past five years have had a devastating effect on me - both physically and emotionally. Having entered menopause almost simultaneously with the occurrence of the accidental death of my child, the effects of both events have aged me most profoundly. A Menopause Makeover is exactly what I need to put me back on the right track.
January 15, 2013 at 10:31 am
I went through menopause around the time my husband left me 8 years ago after a 26 year marriage. Since then, I've experienced a lot of weight gain and don't feel good about myself. I've met a wonderful, loving man and I want to look my very best for myself and HIM! He loves me the way I am, but I want him to be proud of me and want to show me off! I just need a jump start!!! HELP please!!
January 15, 2013 at 10:31 am
I've never been thin. Recently I've lost about 10 or 12 pounds and would live to lose another 10 but they're not going anywhere. This would be the boost I need.
January 15, 2013 at 10:30 am
When I turned 45 1/2, I started gaining weight. For 7 years now, I've put on 3 lbs per year. I would like to get 20 lbs off by mid April to attend a wedding. Also, I have had the same hair style for 30 years. I really need updated everywhere!
January 15, 2013 at 10:29 am
I THINK THIS IS MORE THAN A PRIZE--A GIFT OF WELL-BEING TO SELF AND OTHERS.
January 15, 2013 at 10:27 am
I need to lose weight.
January 15, 2013 at 10:26 am
I definitely am the before picture of Staness. I have tried quite a few things to lose this weight & relieve the fatigue, but nothing has stuck. It seems like she has found a resolution & I need the help!
January 15, 2013 at 10:26 am
I am in menopause and need help! I have Polycystic Kidney Disease and need health advice. I need a makeover because I neglected myself by caring for my ailing mother and myself! I need me time and you can help me! Help me manage my menopause with this prize. I would love to read your book!
January 15, 2013 at 10:26 am
I just turned 56 and just want a new year makeover please
January 15, 2013 at 10:25 am
Ahhhh A make over. Sure could use on just about now at 57 years young.
January 15, 2013 at 10:24 am
In the past few years a "spare tire" has attached itself to my mid-section. I know this will interfere with keeping my back healthy, as well as the rest of my body. A new year is motivation right now, but I know it will diminish as the year progresses. Any tips with this over 50 body would be appreciated.
January 15, 2013 at 10:24 am
I am a mother of six, with just one kiddo left at home. At 51, I am ready to focus more on me and on making all areas of my life the best it can be.
January 15, 2013 at 10:23 am
It would boost me up after taking on helping my son raise my two teen grandkids .
January 15, 2013 at 10:23 am
When I was 48, I had the figure of a siren saint
Then I reached the "fifty mark" and lost it in the dark
Yet with your menopause plan, exercise and sage advice
I'll feel vibrant again, and the men, will once again ...
look twice.

January 15, 2013 at 10:23 am
I would love to win the menopause makeover because i have been going through menopause for the past year and would like some insite on how to feel better and look better (more like myself) while my body goes through this change.
January 15, 2013 at 10:22 am
Single and NOT dating . . . need I say more?
January 15, 2013 at 10:21 am
Put myself on my own happiness project starting in January of 2012. Did great until Thanksgiving - then became derailed. I need to find a way to be better at 53, I want menopause to be the beginning of the next 50 years!!
January 15, 2013 at 10:20 am
I feel like I need the makeover to give me a much needed boost to my 49 year old body. I have two school age children ages 9 and 11 as well as 25 year old son. I want to look good for my self as well as them. I am so busy taking care of my children and my aging parents that it seems like doing somethng for me is at the bottom of the list. It would be nice to have this makeover before menopause kicks in to explain the changes in our body and what we need to at this time in our life.
January 15, 2013 at 10:20 am
Single and dating again... need I say more?
January 15, 2013 at 10:19 am
would love a makeover. I am 69 and in a rut. Not only do I need a body makeover, I need strength training. I walk a lot but still have flab and poor eating habits.
January 15, 2013 at 10:18 am
Menopause has made me feel old, far, ugly and sad
January 15, 2013 at 10:17 am
i don't feel i am as beautiful as i was :-( my hormones have all left the building and took my self esteem w/ them!
January 15, 2013 at 10:16 am
a change to have that confidence back again
January 15, 2013 at 10:15 am
I don't know how to put outfits together that flatter my changing body shape. I am a high school teacher and I need to know how to balance appropriate fashion trends with my age. Please help!
January 15, 2013 at 10:14 am
Because I need it! I have been on weight watchers and doing okay, but there are weight loss problems with menopause that weight watcher can't really address. Help!
January 15, 2013 at 10:14 am
I am in serious need of this makeover! It is time!
January 15, 2013 at 10:13 am
It's me against my hormones. I want to win!
January 15, 2013 at 10:13 am
I will be turning 50 this year and I am starting to feel and see the effects of older age. Bigger belly, aches and pains, weight gain and some wrinkles, ( so my hubby says), I want to go into the next years feeling better not feeling run down and like I am falling apart.
January 15, 2013 at 10:13 am
i feel that everyone can make themselves a better ME! i think we all need the help of the experts.
January 15, 2013 at 10:12 am
I would love a menopause makeover because I just don't feel attractive anymore. I feel as if menopause has really done a number on my body, my skin and while I do workout and have a decent figure for my age (54) I just feel like the hot flashes and menopausal moments in life just bring it all down. I would love to have this makeover so I can feel good about myself again and to reaffirm the fact that menopause doesn't have to drag a person down.
January 15, 2013 at 10:11 am
Turning 60 in May, overcame thyroid cancer surgery, spine surgery, frozen shoulder ( both) and rotator cuff tears in my fifties! I want to be fit and ready for the next decade!
January 15, 2013 at 10:10 am
Think it would be helpful to know what to do to make me feel better going through this. Need suggestions for food and exercise!! Seems everything you eat turns to fat!!
January 15, 2013 at 10:09 am
I need t jump start my MenopUse Management!
January 15, 2013 at 10:07 am
I think we all need a makeover after menopause. We have to readdress how we eat, think, live. All our usual habits may change. We also have to be grateful for what and who we are at this stage, so our attitude is a big part of it.
January 15, 2013 at 08:41 am
I feel the process starting in me. I want to get prepared for the full change that is coming!
January 15, 2013 at 02:07 am
my skin doesnt feel young or look young, I sleep whole lot less, sex life isnt what I would like, and cant seem to loose my weight no matter what I do
January 14, 2013 at 09:45 pm
Aged 53, entering menopause...help me, please!
January 14, 2013 at 12:46 pm
I have tried numerous weight loss methods with no success. I put on a lot of weight and I don't eat a lot. I am 66 years old and I want to see my 18 moth old granddaughter grow up and I want to participate in her activities when she is a teen.
January 14, 2013 at 09:21 am
I want to look how I feel!
January 13, 2013 at 07:18 pm
Because I'm overweight, I feel unfit and I want to get back my vitality - I've been peri menopausal for 5 years and I'm exhausted. I'm on HRT as I couldn't manage the hot flushes and the initial relief and feel good response to the medication is reducing. I feel like I'm only half engaged in life. My sleep patterns are interrupted again and I often feel like a zombie ... UGH! Help.
January 13, 2013 at 05:20 pm
everything needs a lift....lol
January 13, 2013 at 01:13 pm
I am so tired of looking and feeling lifeless. I need a real jumpstart.
January 13, 2013 at 11:26 am
Because age should come with some rewards.
January 13, 2013 at 02:13 am
Because I need to take control of my health, weight and frame of mind! Ever since I enter my 40's I've let myself go, and knowing that I'm going menopausal has been a huge blow to my already bruised ego!!! So the support and being held accountable would be a +
January 12, 2013 at 10:46 pm
All of the symptoms are starting to pop out! I swear I was just 38 years young a couple of months ago, well it seemed like I was, this year I'll be celebrating my 18th anniversary of my 38th birthday.. gulp, how did this happen? My high school tennis coach always used to say even if you can't hit the ball at least use good form while trying. So Menopause Makeover I'm ready to look good no matter how many times I have to explain to people that yes in fact I do have a sunburn from skiing the alps, swimming the oceans or sunbathing in Brazil, yes really, I know how red I am, now move along before I get cranky!
January 12, 2013 at 06:19 pm
UGH! Ever since turning 51, I dont know what is happening to me. I used to feel like I was 18. Now I feel like I am 81 ...help !
January 12, 2013 at 06:06 pm
I gained 60 pounds after menopause. I'm ready to be a new and better me!
January 12, 2013 at 05:09 pm
I need help in controlling this menopause and would like to stop taking medication.
January 12, 2013 at 04:00 pm
I'm 53 (54 in two months) and still have not completely gone through menopause! I've been married for 30 years, have 9 children and 2 granddaughters and I just feel it's time to think about myself a little bit more and this might be the perfect way. I do try to take care of myself nutritionally and think I've been doing a fairly good job, but to have a custom plan would be awesome.
Thanks so much for this chance to win.
January 12, 2013 at 01:55 pm
I went through menopause early; during my mid 40's when none of my friends even understood what I was experiencing. I have worked hard at trying to stay healthy, active and feeling young. Now, at 58, age is starting to show. I am getting bigger lines on my face. A once flat belly isn't so flat anymore. I am not going to give up because I feel so much younger than I am beginning to look. I would love to have somebody help me enter into the latter part of my life with a fresh appearance. I feel challenged to know what clothes to buy and makeup to use. My Mom died at 90. I have 3 aunts still alive and functional: 96, 91 and 87. I believe there are many years ahead. The expertise from Staness Jonekos would be a dream. To know how to look at good on the outside as I feel inside would bring an added joy to my life as well as my appearance. I want to avoid what my Mother felt as she aged..there were no clothes or products out there that were made for the aging generation of women.
January 12, 2013 at 01:42 pm
I feel like I'm just hitting my stride professionally, and I don't want menopause slowing me down or giving me a disadvantage. I have so much to offer still and I feel like menopause is taking away the body and mind I've worked so hard to cultivate! Help, please!
January 12, 2013 at 01:25 pm
I am an older Mom of 3 boys 6,8, & 11. It seems I never have time to think about myself. I am beginning to realize as I go through this change that if I don't think about myself I can't be there for anyone else. I would love help doing this.
January 12, 2013 at 12:27 pm
I would love to win a Menopause Makeover! I want to feel the way I did before the day I woke up "old". Today menopause means men stopped being interested in me but every now and then I remember how it felt to enter a room with "attitude" looking "fierce",
Wouldn't it be great to have The Men All Pause?
Thank you for the opportunity!
(Thank you Klymaxx!)
;)
January 12, 2013 at 12:14 pm

I am a 51 year old woman with a 42 year old husband. Gotta keep up!
January 11, 2013 at 06:04 pm
I just turned 50 last year. The week of my birthday I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I went through a double mastectomy, which had complications. Four surgeries and one more to go in January... I am back at work and recovering. However, the prescribed drug tamoxifen put me in instant menopause. Boy is that a game changer! Waking up sweating in the middle of the night stinks! But, I feel very lucky to be alive and apparently healthy, so I really should not complain. However, I want to keep off the 100 pounds I lost since my husband died in 2001, so I am very interested in this program. Thank you for the opportunity to enter.
January 11, 2013 at 11:02 am
At the age of 50, we adopted our second daughter who was under 1 year of age. We hadn't planned on such a young one, so here I am, going through menopause and having a baby! My body has changed so much, leaving me with 15 additional pounds to lug around, stressed and tired. Being an older mom to a young child, I would like to get some of my "youth" back! I workout regularly and eat pretty well, so its frustrating to see the pounds not coming off and the aging moving forward faster and faster! It probably doesn't help that while I'm raising two young ones, and caring for my elderly parents. I need a solution!
January 11, 2013 at 02:25 am
A year and a half ago, at 49 years old, I was going through Menopause, quite gracefully , I believe, when I was diagnosed with a stage III invasive, aggressive breast cancer. I underwent all the gruelling treatments and am recovered (as much as one can be after such an experience) and turned 50 the week after I finished all my treatments. Now with my 51st birthday around the corner and back to work I am suffering with symptoms of Menopause now that I am all through recovering from the cancer....AGGGHHH!!!!! help..... The good news is that I have lost 50 lbs., (intentionally since recovery because I never want to be that sick again! and I appreciate a healthy life style now! and want to embrace that! so I am doing activities I haven't done in many years! Living in Northwestern Ontario, Canada, with 6 months of winter, many of those new activities are in the snow! I am doing such things as snow shoeing, cross country ski ing, and going to face down hill ski ing this week even though I am feeling a little nervous about that..... also am having a hard time finding "MY" new style, not knowing what to wear and what looks good on me. And lastly, when my hair returned, it came back completely different than what I had previous and don't know what to do with this curly mop!!!!! not complaining, just saying!! cause ANY Hair is better than No hair at all!!!
I am looking forward to my new "season" as I am entering the world of 50's and want to live life to the fullest!
Please help!!!

I am nearly beside myself with menopausal symtoms and dread. I need a perk up!
January 11, 2013 at 12:37 am
I need the menopause makeover to restore harmony with my Mom and husband. I have been menopausal for 2 years and my hot flashes are creating havoc with the thermostat!! One of us is never happy with the temperature, usually me....
January 10, 2013 at 11:52 pm
I am 51 years old and was recently diagnosed with Diabetes.I want to feel better but also look better and be healthier in the process.
January 10, 2013 at 09:00 pm
After having a waist for years, mine went away with menopause - I want it back!
January 10, 2013 at 02:45 pm
It is finally time for me to take care of myself!
January 10, 2013 at 02:20 pm
At 56 I'm so tired of being tired, looking old and worn out. I need a total redo ! I use to have so much energy and I felt good so I felt I looked good. Anymore I feel like I'm not as attractive and just plain jane LOL I've now aquired the spare tire to haul around as well...had a hyst. a few years back, much to young but what can you do, got to go with the advice of your doctor...would love to win....even if it is the book !
January 10, 2013 at 01:50 pm
So I can feel good both physically and emotionally. Menopause takes a toll on both! Coaching would be an awesome opportunity.
January 10, 2013 at 01:35 pm
I want Menopause Makeover because of my night sweats and bad mood
January 10, 2013 at 11:23 am
I have the menopause "middle." Help!
January 10, 2013 at 10:54 am
I have started having symptoms again since I was injured. Since I haven't been able to do much of anything, I have gained weight.
January 10, 2013 at 10:38 am
I don't like breaking down and I now just found out I need knee surgery. I realized that the extra weight I am carrying around has most likely contributed to the knee issue and I need to get rid of the weight for me and my knee. This is NOT a 20 year body that could cut back and lose 10 pounds in 2 weeks, it's much more difficult to get results. I'm ready, I have knee surgery in a month and I really need to get more fit for me and my knee! i'm having a hot flash just thinking about it.
January 10, 2013 at 09:12 am
The hormonal changes are overwhelming at times and make my life/career/home seem out of control. If I can get control of at least a part of my life then I feel that all the areas will become more focused!
I don't have the desire to look like this person, I just want more energy/control/vitality...!!
January 10, 2013 at 08:37 am
I'm sitting here with my morning hot flashes and lack of energy wishing I could win this, to look and feel better than I have in years. Oh hope, of hopes....
January 10, 2013 at 02:29 am
I would love a Menopause Makeover because... I recently lost my job of 11 years in private education, discovered a thyroid condition, and ran head-on into menopause all of which have side-lined my efforts to get back into shape once and for all. And being the oldest daughter and having a mom who never experienced menopause after having a early hysterectomy, I'm pretty much having to figure this stuff out on my own. Could really use the help!!!!
January 10, 2013 at 01:32 am
I would love love love to have the Menopause Makeover! I've made everything else over - new career, new relationship, new circle of friends, now it's time for a brand new me!
January 09, 2013 at 09:32 pm
Makeover so I can get help in losing weight which would come along with a healthier life style.
January 09, 2013 at 07:04 pm
Because I don't like the way I look.
January 09, 2013 at 06:08 pm
In the past couple of years I have gone from being a very busy engineering manager to a retired, menopausal homemaker. Whatever style, exercise, and eating habits I used to have definitely do not work for this new life. I would sure like to have pizzazz and energy!
January 09, 2013 at 05:16 pm
It's been a rough couple of years in terms of sleeping and weight gain. I'd really like to get into a routine to keep me in shape and deal with the menopause symptoms.
January 09, 2013 at 04:40 pm
I'm having a hard time getting old. I would love to look and feel younger.
January 09, 2013 at 03:28 pm
I'm in peri-menopause and in the past year went from always slim with a flat belly to gaining 20 pounds and no form of weight loss seems to work. Help!
January 09, 2013 at 01:47 pm
at the age of 57 everything is changing even more so after the suppere storm I feel and look more like 70 the 57
January 09, 2013 at 01:14 pm
I'm 55 and could really use a change with a make-over,
menopause has taken a toll on me!
January 09, 2013 at 01:14 pm
I need something to pull me out of the rut I've been in for the last 2-1/2 years, sleeping most of the day away. We had to move from Montana (after being there 12 years) to Indiana for my husband's job. Indiana does not begin to compare to Montana. Depression has gotten worse since living here and could REALLY use a pick-me-up.
Thanks for considering me.
January 09, 2013 at 12:46 pm
I turned 50 in June. My mind says I am too young to be so tired and sore and overweight. I need some help!!! I don't want to look like I do anymore.
January 09, 2013 at 12:08 pm
i need one desperatley! I haven't really looked good since having gone thru menopause.
January 09, 2013 at 10:47 am
I would love this makeover because I have gained 25 lbs. that I can't seem to lose no matter what I do, but, more important, I just have not felt energetic like I used to. My get up and go seems to have gotten up and gone. Thanks for considering me.
January 09, 2013 at 10:41 am
because i get the sweats really bad and it is embarrassing
January 09, 2013 at 10:40 am
Please help this girl in need of a make over!
January 09, 2013 at 10:14 am
Because I'm going nuts with these symptoms!
January 09, 2013 at 09:51 am
I really need a new lift to start 2013. I need to loose weight, improve my muscle tone, fix my skin, hair and overall health. This program would certainly put me in the right direction to success in 2013.
January 09, 2013 at 09:46 am
My appetite is outa control! I'm 52 yrs old, am perimenopausal, but experiencing symptons of hot flashes, night sweats, extreme appetite, and mood swings.
January 09, 2013 at 09:33 am
It would be wonderful to win this. I have never won anything in my life, just would like to look fabulous.
January 09, 2013 at 09:28 am
I have gotten flabby and my skin shakes like jello when I beat eggs. My legs look like dried Prunes around the knees. My stomach looks like a marshmallow. And as I do not want to look like the food people eat, I want to get in "SHAPE".
January 09, 2013 at 08:46 am
Bc i want control the sintoms of menopause.
January 09, 2013 at 08:06 am
I'd love to get my best look and feel going forward. And, I often need a nudge rather than being consistent all on my won. Adjusting to the changes brought by menopause is something I'm dealing with but it would be nice to have some expert advice.
I also think my blog readers would enjoy hearing my story of how the 12 week plan was going. I write a dedicated blog for the over 50 woman.
January 09, 2013 at 07:24 am
I turned 50 this year and was also slammed into menopause, with a full time career and two teenage kids I need to be my best. I want to feel and look the best that I can and with menopause mucking the waters, I need some help!
January 09, 2013 at 07:24 am
I know I will rock this makeover and make Staness Jonekos proud!
January 09, 2013 at 06:39 am
To be able to cope with menopause while aging fabulous!
January 09, 2013 at 06:28 am
Firsst time seeking some post menopausal support. Do I have to accept these unwanted, impossible to budge, extra pounds?? Experience no sexuality? Miserable here, please help!!! I am 55.
January 09, 2013 at 03:41 am
I need it badly. I'm about 40 pds. over weight I weigh more now then when I was pregnant and I am very petite so this is not good. I got cancer a few years ago I started gaining weight then.
January 09, 2013 at 03:16 am
Really?! Are you kidding me?! Who wouldn't want yo look like that woman? Ni know I do!!! I went through menopause in my mid forties, now that I am in my mid fifties, I have poaching where there was nothing before. I work hard to eat right, exercise, but it is difficult just to lose a pound, let alone 50! I need a menopause makeover immediately! ;)
January 09, 2013 at 01:44 am
Where to start...I'm 55 and
In 2012 - my husband of 29 years filed for divorce...my 22 year old son died (only son)...had to move out of home...was there 14 years...move out of my neighborhood...was there 20 years...and was bought of our business we had for 29 years dirt cheap...
So...I'm ready to start my new life over...would like to tone up and drop 30 pounds. Since putting my children and husband first all those year I have let myself go...I would like to feel better about myself...
thank you for the chance to win...
Dawn H.
January 09, 2013 at 01:44 am
Because I am eating healthy and still can't lose weight. In 2011 I was 2 months in the hospital having a adrenal cyst removed and candida took my body over and almost killed me. I have been fighting unbalanced hormones and just can't lose the weight. I need to lose 70 pounds. I know I will feel better and be able to get my estrogen under control if I lose weight.
January 09, 2013 at 01:16 am
Hmmm, I'd like to think that maybe at my age...50+ I could somehow look better now than even in my 30's to 40's. If it's even a little possible sign me up! My menopause began before my 50's and has been a real bugger! I'm not winning so far.
January 09, 2013 at 01:16 am
Winning this makeover would fantastic, as it is difficult going through menopause without someone that has "been there and done that." I would be most grateful to have the support, guidance, and wisdom of Ms. Jonekos.
January 09, 2013 at 12:30 am
I'm soooooo ready to lose this extra weight, get back in shape and get my energy back. Is there help for me at age 64????
January 08, 2013 at 11:54 pm
I'm going through menopause early and I'm too young to look this old.
January 08, 2013 at 11:43 pm
I am 48, exercise 4 - 6 times a week. Eat fairly well but have gained weight and can't get it off. Have experienced insomnia, and hot flashes. Bust want to be my best self and could sure use some guidance. Thanks , Kelly
January 08, 2013 at 11:37 pm
I have made it to 56 without much of a fuss. My hot flashes were very mild and my mood swings liveable - well, at least in my own mind. The pills to control the high blood pressure, probably caused my my weight gain before, during and after menopause & not my 3 precious and aggravating sons, aren't too bad. The worry now is the pre-diabetes which I do not want to become diabetes. The 'Do not eat this or this or this but do eat this & this' diets that I have been on in the past have not worked. Whether it's hormones or lack of will-power I don't know, but I HATE being the heavy one in my family. The loss of self esteem is happening more & more over time and I just want it to stop, but don't know how. My wants & needs are simple - to be healthier which will make me happier and to do so I need help with a healthier lifestyle, not another 'diet'.
January 08, 2013 at 11:08 pm
As I'm getting older, I seemed to have gained weight. Half the time, I'm either hot or cold. I have never been feeling the extreme of temperature. It makes it difficult for me to deal with these hot flashes. I would love to lose the weight I have gained but don't know what to do about it.
January 08, 2013 at 11:04 pm
I am a middle aged widow who rides a motorcycle. I need to look hot!
January 08, 2013 at 10:56 pm
I need some motivation to change and this would be the answer to my prayers. It would help me be a better person
January 08, 2013 at 10:23 pm
i am 69,i look 50,but i have menopause issues,i could use some help.
January 08, 2013 at 10:18 pm
I would like this make over because my body is so out of whack no matter what I do or try it doesn't work. I am in the worst shape ever.
January 08, 2013 at 09:53 pm
I need this so bad! Menopause has ravaged me. Hair, weight, skin, mood, sex...you name it. I want to win!
January 08, 2013 at 09:33 pm
Menopause has really thrown my metabolism off wack. I need a makeover!
January 08, 2013 at 09:33 pm
Thank You
January 08, 2013 at 09:15 pm
I'm finding it hard to get my body in shape no matter how I work out. I think this would give me the boost I need.
January 08, 2013 at 09:15 pm
I have been in menopause since I was 35 yrs old because of surgery. Now that I'm over 50 I'm having trouble with being overweight and slowing metabolism and I just can't seem to get it under control . I think I'm starting to feel my age and I'm getting discouraged...
January 08, 2013 at 09:15 pm
Wow this sounds wonderful! I would love to be able to lose my middle, sleep a whole night through and get my energy back so I can keep up with my grandchildren. Anything that helps with hot flashes will be a blessing too!
January 08, 2013 at 09:10 pm
My life is so different now, I don't recognize myself!
January 08, 2013 at 09:03 pm
I am almost 55 and I have been a single mom for 20 years and my oldest daughter just graduated from college with 2 degrees and with honors (cum lauder). My other daughter is a Junior in college. I have spent the last 20 years raising 2 wonderful kids and always put myself them first. Before i got married at 31, I had always taken care of myself by hiking and biking and exercising. I have not been able to do the things I used to enjoy but I really want to now get back into doing the things I used to love. I would love to have a Makeover to get me motivated to start thinking of me again. My daughters have made me really proud and now I would like them to be proud of me.
January 08, 2013 at 09:03 pm
Menopause threw my body off course, of course I want the makeover...need as much help as I can get!
January 08, 2013 at 08:59 pm
Try as I may....dieting...excercising.....I cannot lose this
menopause middle......I am tired of feeling like I have a pregnant belly at 63....my stamina level is low....i don't expect to be 18 again but I would just like to look in a mirroe and like my body i stead of hiding it
January 08, 2013 at 08:39 pm
It sounds like a great little package. I want to know her secret to that body!
January 08, 2013 at 08:21 pm
I have a similar story to Staness'. I am 51 years young and after 24 years of marriage that ended 4 years ago because of domestic violence, I swore to be single FOREVER...until I met my best friend, Mr. Right and my life TRULY began.
In 2010, I had surgery and the doctor said "it will cause early menopause", well sure enough in Sept. 2011 I started experiencing the "nightmare"...hot, cold, irritable, weight gain, depression - I was turning into someone/something I did not like anymore:(
I WANT TO BE ME AGAIN!!! please help.
January 08, 2013 at 08:20 pm
This would be a fabulous 51st birthday gift. My birthday is January 28th ! It's been just over a year since my cycle stopped. I've gained a certain calmness and I am more secure in my decisions now. I've a confident mind. I'm wanting a rocking body to match !!
January 08, 2013 at 07:55 pm
I'm 57 and need to be more healthy this is a good way to start...
January 08, 2013 at 07:53 pm
At my age, going thru menoapuse is finallygetting to your destination after taking lots of different exits
January 08, 2013 at 07:39 pm
I think my body is waiting to be made over, I think my mind is ready to go for it, and I feel that I would be able to enjoy my life so much more if this were to occur for me!
January 08, 2013 at 07:09 pm
Change things up a bit, my menopause symptons are no vacation....
January 08, 2013 at 07:06 pm
I have been suffering from Menopause and all that comes along with it for several months now - night sweats, weight gain, moodiness - you name it, I've got it! It affects my daily life, and my quality of sleep. I feel like every aspect of my life is affected...even my relationship with my husband. We have been married for 32 years, and have been through a lot, so he's vert understanding, but I'm tired of this. No one should have to suffer like this - no one should have to live like this. I would love to have some relief.
January 08, 2013 at 07:02 pm
It's a new stage and I need some expert advice to be the best FOF I can be!!
January 08, 2013 at 06:51 pm
Even though i am past menopause, I am on tamoxifen which controls hormones after breast cancer. The effects are much worse than menopause. Going through menopause i was lucky, i never suffered hot flashes, insomnia, mood swings. But this is a living hell. I am taking effexor, but i need more help. This will be great for me.
January 08, 2013 at 06:50 pm
As a retired NYC Police Officer I am really disappointed on the weight I have gained since retiring. I was in great shape as a police officer and had endless energy while running up the stair in the Housing projects or chasing after a criminal. Now I just feel like the pounds of gotten the best of me and I am a prisoner in my own body. This could be the key to help me escape.
January 08, 2013 at 06:47 pm
This is me!
January 08, 2013 at 06:34 pm
Why wouldn't I ? At 52 I have night sweats, hot flashes, mood swings, depression and a belly which has a mind of its own. I'm tired of feeling "tired" and like I'm trapped in this body. I need this makeover yesterday!
January 08, 2013 at 06:32 pm
i need all the help I can get!
January 08, 2013 at 06:30 pm
Where or where has my lil perky self gone, or where or where can she be? I've looked in the mirror and don't recognize the middle-age mama looking back at me! Running here for the honey, doing that for the teen, I've managed to lose myself somewhere in-between. A makeover to lift, and a "pause" to renew might just be the answer for this middle-age fool! The New Year is calling and new goals must be set, so your tips with a Plan would be the Best Gift to myself yet!! Thank you so much.
January 08, 2013 at 06:24 pm
I have had a Brain Tumour removed from my Pituatary and have gained about 50 pounds!
Help?!

January 08, 2013 at 06:19 pm
Since hitting menopause, it has been very frustrating to try to keep my weight under control. I walk and exercise regularly, but to no avail. Why is my body fighting my efforts? I need help!
January 08, 2013 at 06:11 pm
18 years after a complete hysterectomy, I still have hot flashes and put on more weight every year.
January 08, 2013 at 06:10 pm
I never had any time of makeover, and now really do need it. Perhaps would make me feel better mind and body.
January 08, 2013 at 06:07 pm
Menopause has caused a weight gain of 20 pounds and a total change of body shape, especially around the middle. I want my old body back!
January 08, 2013 at 06:01 pm
menopause paused somethings and caused others and i need to revive and be reinvented !
January 08, 2013 at 05:54 pm
I just want to feel like me again. I had a total Hysterectomy at 44 and I am about to be 49 in 2 weeks. I had horible depression and mood swings and then gained 40 pounds. I went on the "patch" and worked out like a dog and lost the weight over a 2 year time. I have since gained back 20 pounds and I miss the figure I used to have. My birth-mother just located me and we are going to meet for the first time in March. I would love to lok and feel my best. I have also had a huge change in my desire for sex. I adore my husband and would love to be the woman I once was in the bedroom again. I love fashion and am not sure if I dress my age. I feel young inside and just want that to shine through on the outside. I am in the prime of life and want to enjoy all that life has to offer!
January 08, 2013 at 05:53 pm
to live each and every day to the best of my potential for life!
January 08, 2013 at 05:45 pm
I've decided I'm tired of just getting older and accepting all the problems that come with aging without a fight. Why can't we live as fulfilling a life as we hit our fifties as a younger person does?
January 08, 2013 at 05:31 pm
I am 55 and have had a hysterectomy 10 years ago, and I have been on Hormone Replacement and it has been steadily decreased the last few years, and I now have hot flashes and whats really annoying is I get so hot at night, throw the blankets off and later have to search for them cause I'm cold. Nuff said.
January 08, 2013 at 05:27 pm
I'm 57 and feel like I'm 97. I still have hot flashes even though I started menopause when I was 50. I have gained 15 pounds since the start of menopause. I would love to lose the hot flashes and the weight. I would love to get some energy back and feel full of life again.
January 08, 2013 at 05:21 pm
I want to feel and look better.
January 08, 2013 at 05:21 pm
I am ready to do this! I am walking and eating more vegies and lean meat. I am on my rebounder and will do anything that gets me into the best shape since I had children (last one was at 42!) Bring it on! I see me slim, trim, and flab turned fab!
January 08, 2013 at 05:20 pm
Because I need a big change
January 08, 2013 at 04:50 pm
I lost my husband to melanoma cancer five years ago. I was 56. I began periods at age 9 and did not stop until age 59. (I am now 61) Between watching my husband die and feeling helpless and still mourning that loss, menopause has been very difficult....the sleep problems, the weight issues (in spite of teaching fitness myself), the feeling like I am going to burst into tears all the time while acting as a pillar of strength for everyone else is sometimes just too much. Everyone sees me as the inspirational widow who keeps everyone else up. It would be nice to be the one being taken care of and pampered once in a while. As strong as I may appear to others all the time, they don't see me standing in the shower crying, hating how my life feels so empty without my husband, and seeing my own body betraying me. I have to take blood pressure pills and in spite of how I watch my diet, I still have at least 30 pounds that I need to drop. Winning a makeover like this, would be a dream come true.
January 08, 2013 at 04:49 pm
This would be awesome! Finally some help!
January 08, 2013 at 04:49 pm
I want a makeover because I am not happy with myself. I've gained 30 lbs over the past 5 years, hair is dry and thinning, eyebrows and eyelashes are pretty much non existent. I am a divorced mother of 2 in college and I work both a full time and a part time job year round. I'm exhausted to say the least. When I look at photos of myself I cringe. The bags and dark circles under my eyes bring me to tears.
What happened to me?
January 08, 2013 at 04:44 pm
Having been in menopause for some time, I've gained 25 lbs in addition to the daily day and night sweats.
January 08, 2013 at 04:42 pm
OMG! Would love to learn something that fits in my age bracket!
January 08, 2013 at 04:42 pm
when I hit my mid 40s, i started gaining weight, in addition to experiencing drastic mood swings and horrible hot flashes. I so need help to lose the weight I cannot seem to stop gaining so that i can enjoy walking again. right now the added weight is causing problems with my knees.
January 08, 2013 at 04:40 pm
I think I need a menopause makeover because for a while I was in denial now I realize that is a normal part of life. But, at the end of the day it took a little but of a toll on my body.
January 08, 2013 at 04:36 pm
I am over 50 and still coping with menopause, the extra weight and would love to have Staness's expertise
January 08, 2013 at 04:22 pm
I don't want to look or feel like I always remember my grandmother looking...old, wearing a moomoo, matronly, etc... I want to look and feel like I see myself in my head....still young, hot, and ready to take life on!
January 08, 2013 at 04:16 pm
oh please i would love to have this . i would jump for joy to win such an opportunity please consider me i am 52 have been unemployed for the last 13 months i am finishing a class for pharmacy tech and will start to look for work this will be great chance to jump start my new menopause life yipee !
January 08, 2013 at 04:09 pm
I would love a Menopause Makeover because, simply put, I'm tired. As a member of the "sandwich generation" I'm still worrying about the well being of my grown children (their school debts, their employment searches, their marriages and children) while caring for my 95 year old father who lives with us. Furthermore, I'm an ordained United Methodist pastor caring for a flock of over 150 congregants. I am called up upon to grieve with them, celebrate with them, fix their marriages, bury their loved ones, pray for life, death and everything in between, be on call 24/7 and deliver life changing sermons every Sunday. I'm just tired, empty and would love to be "made over."
January 08, 2013 at 04:06 pm
What a FAB way for this OverFifty gal to start off the new year!
January 08, 2013 at 03:47 pm
Because I don't think that menopause is a curse. It's a gift.
Because I want to age gracefully and with dignity, and have a whole lot of fun and look good while doing it.
Because I'm tired of people thinking that the term "middle-age" is rude.
I AM middle-aged. So what? I have lived half of my "expected" lifespan and I've had a blast doing it. What's wrong with that?
Because I have gained some wisdom along the way, and because I am almost 55 I feel that I have "earned" the right to speak a little of it.
Because I have just been diagnosed with osteopenia and I want to avoid osteoporosis, if I can.
Because I have 25 pounds to lose and could use a little accountability and a little help and support wouldn't hurt either.
Because life is too short not to live it to the best of my ability.
Because I can complain about the changes in my body and complain about getting older or I can celebrate getting older.
Because I choose to celebrate!
January 08, 2013 at 03:45 pm
I need HELP!! Had a very early hysterectomy and gained weight I cannot lose, need a makeover for my body, I think that would be helpful all around.
January 08, 2013 at 03:43 pm
Staness, we modeled together in the 80's!!! We did some catalog work together. I still have the tear sheets! OMG girl, you look amaze-balls! Tamra
January 08, 2013 at 03:40 pm
I am 54 and miserable with my situation now. I need to make changes, but how? Coaching would definitely help as would the products offered!
January 08, 2013 at 03:33 pm
I have not felt myself since having a hysterectomy in 2008 at the age of 49. I obviously went into instant menopause and have gaiined about 35 pounds. I am having a terrible time getting the weight to come off and stay off. I just want to feel better, have more energy and feel like myself again.
January 08, 2013 at 03:32 pm
Because life has never been better - mind, spirit, confidence and community - but I could use some help to get the body into a shape to match the inner glow already going on.
January 08, 2013 at 03:30 pm
HELP NOW! Please!!
January 08, 2013 at 03:29 pm
Wow, I cold really use a new body in 12 weeks!!!! 50 and suffering...
January 08, 2013 at 03:27 pm
Because I hate menopause and I would like to feel better about the way I look and feel.
January 08, 2013 at 03:26 pm
I am 51. I have always been the skinny one. Now I have a stomach. I'm not FAT but I need to loose 15-20 lbs. I need this help. :)
Thank you!!
January 08, 2013 at 03:21 pm
To get my old life back!!!!!
January 08, 2013 at 03:12 pm
Confidence builder. To learn what i am experiencing is "normal". To learn how to deal with different issues, so that i can pass the information on to others. But I would also learn how to finally take care of me, instead of always taking care of others.
Thank you for all the opportunities you offer your followers.
Sincerely, Diane
January 08, 2013 at 03:05 pm
I have lost any motivation I ever had. After years of being literally ignored by my husband, it has taken a toll on me. I have gained over 30 pounds after going through menopause. I think I'm afraid if I get thin my eyes may wonder. Lack of finances haven't helped the situation, nor living over 3000 miles from my girls and grand babies. I am desperate!
January 08, 2013 at 03:01 pm
Why????...because I thought I could outfox Menopause on my own...! I was determined to eat right, exercise, stay healthy...and thought I wouldn't see many changes. My thoughts came back to bite me. 2 Weeks after a full year end to my period, I slipped on the ice and fell....badly. Now, 2 years from my fall, surgery's and PT...I am 35 lbs heavier (and needed to lose around 20 when I fell!!!), stiff, out of shape, weak and looking older than my age. I tried to take some exercise classes...way too advanced for me...and injured my knee. I can't afford a personal trainer and even though there is much to read on this topic...It's really hard to know what things are safe, effective and appropriate for my body. I so badly want to get in shape, and will be happy to do the work needed. I"m very determined that 2013 is when I reclaim myself! I just really need some help, guidance and a person who knows what menopausal women really need to get back into shape! I would love to meet Staness Jonekos and have her evaluate me and help me find the right plan. I am so open to the possibilities!
January 08, 2013 at 02:57 pm
I would love a menopause makeover. Once again I have started a New Year's resolution diet, this time using the Lindora program. My goal is to lose thirty pounds. I made a similar resolution last year with exercise: my goal was to run a marathon. Lofty, to be sure, but I trained slowly and surely, hired a trainer, was very dedicated, and then fell off the wagon in August due to painful plantar faciitis. Since then I have regained all of the weight and lost all of the muscle tone, and not surprisingly my feet hurt even worse due to the extra pounds. I'm too young to be hobbling around like this, and have grown weary about feeling depressed regarding the way I look. I am happy to report that I have 'stuck' to the Lindora program now for 8 days. My feet feel better, but I definitely need to add excercise into the mix once again. I haven't entered any contests in a few years so this email piqued my interest! I'm wishing myself good luck, and loving the FOF community.
Take good care and best wishes,
Mary Caldarone
January 08, 2013 at 02:57 pm
because everything is different now!!
January 08, 2013 at 02:32 pm
Over the last 11 years stress has been my best friend that along with menopause has helped me pack on 35lbs or probably more because I refuse to get on the scale lately or look at my self in a full length mirro. My girls age 24, 17 and 14 are truly concerned with my health and because of their concern as well as my own disappointment in myself I am ready for a change. I have already bought your book but don't allow myself time to actually start reading it...it would be great to have someone like you in my corner helping me get through my rolls of fat and back to who I really am!!!!
January 08, 2013 at 02:05 pm
At this point in my Menopause jouney I can use all the help I can get!!! :-)
January 08, 2013 at 02:02 pm
Let's face it -- if you're over 40 you are invisible. I'd like to be noticed again! The longer a woman feels attractive, the better she feels about herself. And the better she feels about herself, the more equipped she is to deal with the world!
January 08, 2013 at 02:01 pm
I'm 59 and did very well with my age - until this year. Although I've been FIGHTING menopause symptoms for at least 7 years, this year they just seemed to get the better of me. I'm not sleeping due to night sweats...I can't find anything comfortable to wear to bed or to sleep on. I told the Dr. about not sleeping who prescribed medication but I hate the medication (there MUST be a better way) and to be honest I just feel groggy the next day. Not a very good trade off. I have "middle fat" which was NEVER an issue for me previously. In fact I was a personal trainer in my younger days. I know I HAD a waist but I sure can't find it...additionally I have other issues I would love to discuss privately with someone especially since I don't really have women peers right now.
I am returning to work soon...and I feel LOST. Although this should be the door to the second half of my life I often feel that I'm just SO tired, eating the wrong foods, out of shape...my husband is younger so sex is an issue too. He's ready to go every day...me, not so much!
I want to enjoy my life but I feel like I'm just "getting through it" and that makes me sad. I have SO MANY QUESTIONS and would be willing to commit 110% to this program if you choose me. In my younger days I did stand up comedy and now the thought of standing in front of an office full of people, never mind an audience of 500 just mortifies me.
PLEASE tell me this is not hopeless and there's a way to ENJOY this time in my life instead of feeling like I'm barely surviving it.
January 08, 2013 at 01:57 pm
Would like to do this with someone who know what they're doing. Feom a size 4 petite to overspill pantwise and bra o I really want this. Thank u for your consideration
January 08, 2013 at 01:55 pm
I need help to feel like the person that I once was!
January 08, 2013 at 01:53 pm
To feel better
January 08, 2013 at 01:51 pm
I've really let myself go and I really don't have any excuse why I'd done so
January 08, 2013 at 01:51 pm
I need a Menopause Makeover because I want to look beautiful (again) for my boyfriend, my sons and myself! I have gained so much weight and feel not so pretty since surviving cancer 7 years ago! I know it's a mind-set, but if I could win something like this I know that it would be the jump-start that I need to really turn the corner on the 51 year old blahs!
Thanks for the opportunity and consideration. Happy 2013!
January 08, 2013 at 01:43 pm
The love of my life has come back into my life after 40 years and I refuse to sleep with him until I am in better shape! It is hard at age 59 to make much headway with diet and exercise but I have to do it for him!
January 08, 2013 at 01:43 pm
I need this Menopause Makeover,because as we get older our body don't look young and sexy, and excercise don't do it all to make you feel young and beautiful.I need a plan like Staness Jonekos to put me back on track so my body look young and radiant and makes me feel good about the way I look.
January 08, 2013 at 01:39 pm
Tired of looking tired and dried up!
January 08, 2013 at 01:32 pm
I just started menopause and I want a startegy to survive menopause without pushing my family away from me.
January 08, 2013 at 01:30 pm
I have been exercising daily for decades, but after I went through menopause, my lower abdomen and waist expanded and nothing I do seems to help.
January 08, 2013 at 01:28 pm
I spent my 30s and 40s being the 'victim' of my hormones and suffering from infertility and other hormonal problems. I'd like my 50s to be the decade I take my body back. I've made a start but menopause is now kicking in and I'd love some help. I'll be 50 in May and it seems like the perfect time to have this kind of boost.
January 08, 2013 at 01:27 pm
I do not feel 55, I've been thinking lately about surgery for my tummy fat...exercising helps a bit...In my mind I feel like the beautiful catalog models...I think I need a good push!!!
January 08, 2013 at 01:25 pm
I had a hysterectomy several years ago and immediately gained 30 pounds. I have always been very slim and strong, but now feel nothing like my real self, at least physically. My wish, dream, prayer, is to return to a slim and strong version of me. This would give me so much more confidence and I feel it would make me be taken more seriously in my career and other endeavors. Someone who is 57, slim, strong, and fashionable (which I AM) is viewed differently than a frumpy, heavy, middle aged woman.
And I really want to shop for a new wardrobe without crying in the dressing room.
January 08, 2013 at 01:17 pm
I so need a menopause makeover. I have suffer relentlessly for several years now. But, as of the end of the month I am retiring and starting a new chapter in my life. I would love to do so with less menopause symptoms.
January 08, 2013 at 01:16 pm
61 years old and having hot flashes everyday. Can't eat much because will gain weight and this is bad for my arthritic knees and hips. Need a menopause makeover for sure.
January 08, 2013 at 01:12 pm
I would DEARLY love to have a menopause makeover...I have gained weight because of menopause and also because I quit smoking - the combination has been so hard to handle....between my work schedule and being sluggish - I need the assistance so badly - everyday I look at myself and say really??? I'm frustrated - and would love to be selected....! Thank you!
January 08, 2013 at 01:09 pm
asap
January 08, 2013 at 01:08 pm
Always want to try new ideas with regard to looking and feeling good, who doesnt?!!
January 08, 2013 at 01:07 pm
I can't control my cravings since menopause. I need help with diet nd exercise ideas.
January 08, 2013 at 01:05 pm
I need one and it would be interesting to learn her techniques, use the tools she uses and keep them as part of my life and make the best of them, and finally even if it takes me longer, share a picture.
January 08, 2013 at 01:01 pm
Would love to get in shape and be my best!
January 08, 2013 at 12:58 pm
After never having a weight problem, menopause is changing everything. I need help, please!!!
January 08, 2013 at 12:54 pm
Why wouldn't I? I'm 52 and have been struggling with night sweats ( beginning when I was 40), hot flashes, mood swings, depression and weight gain (belly, belly, belly!!!). I'm not looking forward to spending my time being unhealthy and miserable!...Please pick me!
January 08, 2013 at 12:53 pm
I am 49, after reading some information about it being common that women go thru depression around the age of 47 it has hit me! I think i was going through a depression. i don't feel that way now, i am just now feeling like i can be free and embrace my birthday this year "50"! I need re-invented! Pick me!
January 08, 2013 at 12:49 pm
I would love help through this transition!
She has so much to offer. It is a wonderful opportunity!
January 08, 2013 at 12:49 pm
Hmmm, manage my menopause [and why pray tell why couldn't it be a word without men and pause in it!].
I would really like and clearly need to have some help with my eating habits, love/hate those late nite snacks; my exercise, hate going out in the cold; and day to day life!
The symptoms of menopause that are the most difficult for me to handle are the night sweats and the Cool Jams and Wicked Sheets sound heavenly!
It would be wonderful to regain the confidence to even wear make-up again, after having a full night of sleep. It seems that regaining the ability to see myself as attractive and sensual is more important than I thought it was.
I would be very happy to be choosen for the Menopause Makeover.
January 08, 2013 at 12:48 pm
I think that the advice will be very helpful to me. I am very committed to doing this the best I possibly can and would appreciate the help and expert guidance.
January 08, 2013 at 12:47 pm
I am ready to start looking and feeling better. I make conscious food and exercise decisions, but feel that that there is something lacking that I don't know about.
January 08, 2013 at 12:47 pm
I would so love some help with all of those annoying menopause symptoms. I need a coach!
I just cant seem to get myself back on track - perhaps its because I am a full time working postmenopausal mom?
And by the way, I got pregnant 3 years ago when I was perimenopausal!
January 08, 2013 at 12:46 pm
I am planning a family vacation (cruise) with my sons/daughter-in-law and would love to drop some weight so I am not such a stick in the mud. I want to be able to enjoy whatever comes our way, snorkeling, sky diving (not likely) but even a long walk along the beach. Getting rid of some extra weight would be a dream come true.
January 08, 2013 at 12:43 pm
Menopause has not been my friend. I am having more difficulty trying to be a "mom on the go" with two teenagers. I need help to reclaim myself!
January 08, 2013 at 12:42 pm
I'm 53 and cranky. I need a makeover to become a better, nicer person
January 08, 2013 at 12:38 pm
That is easy-just LOOK at Staness!!!
January 08, 2013 at 12:37 pm
My body is a wreck and I would love an organized plan to get healthy and stay that way - My grandmother was right and now it's my turn to "go through the change" with some "newfangled" help!!
January 08, 2013 at 12:36 pm
Menopause is a tricky thing, I believe it started a lot sooner than I was willing to admit. I really want to stay a head of it now in stead of trying to catch myself up with it. I believe it is a lot easier to get in shape, eat right and become leaner NOW than any time in the future. I would love to have the answers to what I and so many of my associates/friends are going thru. I would love to be the best I can, I have so much more living to do!!!!
January 08, 2013 at 12:36 pm
I can use all of the help that I can get, and Menopause Makeover would be a dream come true!
January 08, 2013 at 12:34 pm
because I gained 30lbs in 6 months? My girlfriend and I pledged to be fabulous at 50. She did it and looks great. I have 4 months and it's not looking good.
January 08, 2013 at 12:33 pm
Although I am not in the Menopause, shed my extra pounds and look as great as Staness, encourage me to enter in this sweepstake. The menopause makeover is not only for woman in thi special stage of our age, but for anybody who would like to feel younger again.
January 08, 2013 at 12:32 pm
I just need it!!!!
January 08, 2013 at 12:27 pm
I want to look & feel my best so I can enjoy life to the fullest!
January 08, 2013 at 12:26 pm
It would give me a good start to the New Year & I really, really need a makeover
January 08, 2013 at 12:26 pm
I would live to have a makeover! As a cancer survivor I can honestly say Replens is fantastic.
January 08, 2013 at 12:24 pm
I would love to win a menopause Makeover to help me look as good as I did at 25 because I still feel that good!! :-)
January 08, 2013 at 12:23 pm
Loved the book! Now I want to see the movie! It would be an honor to talk with Staness Jonekos in person and have the opportunity to delve a little deeper into her vast menopause mindset storehouse of knowledge!
January 08, 2013 at 12:23 pm
I am 66 years old, have a new love in my life----cannot take hormones due to breast cancer 20 years ago--cancer free for 20 years and only had radiation and a lumpectomy and it is VERY hard to fight weight without hormones. I would love to look anywhere close to the picture. Still have a shape-just need the help to define it. I do watch what I eat and do exercise and have been told I do not look my age---but would LOVE to have professional help to get to that look, just one more time in my lifetime. This would be a dream come true for me.
January 08, 2013 at 12:22 pm
I am 50 going on 51, I was an heavy teeneager but I managed to loose the weight and keep it of until at 42 at stop smoking I gain 30 pound and loss it in 2011.
In 2012 I started having hot flash, not sleeping good being tired, depress not excercising the complete hormonal thing I gain 40lbs in 1 year.
In 2013 I am determine to sheed it back with no intention to recuparate it. I am having the hardest time of my life getting in control of it all. A Menopause Makeover would help
January 08, 2013 at 12:21 pm
Would be a great way to start 2013!!
January 08, 2013 at 12:19 pm
I was once full of passion for life,s possibilities. I took chanches and believed in myself.I had a true sence of how to navigate through the world in my own skin.
But now at 50... I have lost an important part of my navagation system.
I am a stranger in my body and feel like someone else. Someone who thinks she should just "settle" for an "ok" life.
That,s not the the woman I really am.
I want to save that other woman buried under fat and
shame.
January 08, 2013 at 12:12 pm
I am 48 and exercise 5 days a week. I am tired and a little irritable. I have always been conscientious about maintaining my weight and being fit but I know something is "off". I think this program would be a great way to kick some butt ( mine) this year!
January 08, 2013 at 12:04 pm
I would like a Menopause Makeover because I need to lose weight for my health and self-confidence.
After being literally underweight all my life, suddenly in my late 40s I started gaining weight and as I hit my 50s I found it extremely hard to lose the weight.
I am single and ready to get back into a relationship, but my weight has caused me to have self-confidence issues - I am very insecure about the way I look and don't feel attractive. I am ready to find a man to spend the rest of my life with and losing weight and getting back into shape will help me become secure with myself again.
Thanks for the opportunity to win this package.
January 08, 2013 at 12:04 pm
This 62 yo body can use some serious help.
January 08, 2013 at 12:02 pm
I would like my outside to match my inside!
January 08, 2013 at 11:58 am
As I will be leaving the Fabulous Fifty's decade this year (don't know where all those years went) I really need some help as I enter the next phase of my life. The weight issue, more and more fine lines and wrinkles, loss of my job, personal and family illnesses and deaths have been very challenging and would like to get back to feeling and looking my age.
January 08, 2013 at 11:55 am
I'm bored with myself, sick of HRT and weight gain! I work out and eat well but need a makeover! Thanks!
January 08, 2013 at 11:54 am
I would like to look and feel better, inside and out
January 08, 2013 at 11:53 am
I am also 47 - the same age at which Staness had her 'Menopause Makeover'. I have not found the answers I have been looking for in my own research so it would be nice to have a mentor like Staness who already has the experience in figuring it all out to guide me.
January 08, 2013 at 11:53 am
Good question! I am a very busy women who is in menopause, and I am struggling to balance the needs of my career with my personal health. I am a lifelong single and although I never expected to be one, I'm now embracing it for all it is worth. I enjoy the emotional changes and the feelings of enpowerment of menopause, but the physical changes can really be a beast at times. Surely there's a way to manage all of this!
January 08, 2013 at 11:49 am
I am 49 years old but have been in surgical menopause for 5 years. I chose to stop taking HRT one year ago.
I have multiple hot flashes mainly at night. I can't sleep at night with out sleep aids.
I am not happy with the weight gain.
I also have vaginal dryness. Winning this would be a blessing to me because I would put it to good use. Thank you!
January 08, 2013 at 11:49 am
After 2 difficult years financially, I see light at the end of the tunnel. In the meanwhile, stress has helped me to gain considerable weight, which I'm having trouble taking off. Help, please!
January 08, 2013 at 11:48 am
To get rid of the tire tube that is inflating around my body!!!
January 08, 2013 at 11:47 am
We all want to look our best and younger!
January 08, 2013 at 11:45 am
Cuz I want to look younger - who doesn't? :-)
January 08, 2013 at 11:44 am
I have fought with weight since childhood.I got sick at the age of 5 and Dr. Said I couldn't get excited for a year,nor could I walk for a few months.So a lot of my fun was eating.So I ended up a fat child.I have yoyo dieted all my life.After my 3rd child I walked 4 to 5 miles every night,and took stacker 2. Which was a fat burner. I lost around 50 lbs in 4 months,which left a lot of loose skin.I weight trained every night ,I couldn't get rid of it.I ended up so depressed my mother paid to get me a lower body lift.it really helped my stomach and did make butt and thighs better,but not what I was hoping and hate that I haven't worn a pair of shorts since I was 8 yrs old.I am now 54.
January 08, 2013 at 11:44 am
After having a hysterectomy 11 years ago, I quickly gained 50 pounds and a belly, and have never been able to lose more than 10 pounds or the belly. Please help!
January 08, 2013 at 11:43 am
After a very trying two years, which have involved, among other things, the death of my youngest child and becoming unemployed, I became very blah and unmotivated, and my health, happiness and looks have suffered. I am trying to have a new and improved attitude/outlook for 2013, taking better care of myself physically, mentally, and spiritually. Having this wonderful makeover would be such a boost!! Thanks for the opportunity.
January 08, 2013 at 11:39 am
It's been a tough year, my brother suddenly passed, Hurricane Sandy hit and menopause charged in like a clown posse. I feel dragged, frazzled, down and ready for renewal in 2013. I'm a hard-working, self-employed owner of a very small electronics company of proudly Made in the USA products. I'd love to be picked and would stay with the plan.
January 08, 2013 at 11:38 am
I am a mother of five - plus add one more if you want to count my husband. I work two jobs putting over 40 hours a week into each one, but only receive one paycheck. And I just reached reached "senior discount" age - YIKES!
January 08, 2013 at 11:37 am
I want a Menopause Makeover because of what 7 pregnancies did to my body...need I say more?
January 08, 2013 at 11:31 am
Because I am miserable in "Mean-o-pause"
January 08, 2013 at 11:31 am
There is no woman who will not want it because menopause is not nice.
January 08, 2013 at 11:31 am
Hello,
I am 45 years old... guess just heating the age...
I have been very active all my life and could proudly say that I was in a good shape up until now: my appetite is over the roof and I crave carbs...
Hope to win a Menopause Makeover to get back to my sz (4-6).
Thanks
January 08, 2013 at 11:30 am
I had a great 2012 in terms of changing my eating habits for the better. I want to keep building on those changes and add an element of physcial fitness and other life upgrades!
January 08, 2013 at 11:30 am
I just seem to be getting bigger and bigger. I do "hate" exercise, but need some success in the dieting area to make even light exercise attractive and possible. I want to be around for the 3 grandchildren I already have, the one I'm getting in 2013 and any future offspring! I certainly need to do SOMETHING!
January 08, 2013 at 11:30 am
When do we get started!!
January 08, 2013 at 11:30 am
I'd love to lose a few pounds, especially around my middle, where it seems to have landed of late. Also if the menopause makeover could help cool my hot flashes, that would be an added bonus. If not, the cooling system and the moisture wicking sheets will be put to great use!
January 08, 2013 at 11:27 am
My body has changed since I went through menopause, and I could use some help!
January 08, 2013 at 11:26 am
I want a Menopause Makeover to help me embrace this new phase of my life, so that I can be all that I can be, for myself, my loved ones, and all others around me.
January 08, 2013 at 11:24 am
At 53, it feels like I'm at a crossroads - one path is to succumb to 'middle age' and give in to all that makes me feel 'finished' -- the other path is to dig in and keep the best parts and discover all can be made better! In between caring for aging parents and not-quite-all-grown-up children, it's time to carve out something for ME.
January 08, 2013 at 11:22 am
I am trying to get the weight off and it has been challenge to get the weight off
January 08, 2013 at 11:21 am
My mother passed away from pancreatic cancer on November 24th and I think I have been eating my grief. I am 51 years old, have three kids under 15 and a great husband but no time for me. Over the past 3 years at my current job I have gained 35 lbs. I had a hysterectomy at 45 and do not take hormone therapy anymore. I used to have this tiny waist, now I look like a fat boy with boobs.....help!
January 08, 2013 at 11:20 am
I am an attorney with my own trial practice, I have 3 children ages 7, 9, & 11, am over 47, a room mother, a ballet and boy scout mother with a First Grader, 4rth Grader and a middle schooler. I also coach Mock Trial at our local High School and we are active in our Church, two of my children are acolytes and all are thespians at church. I am always busy, have little to no time for myself, am in peri-menopause, overweight, stressed, dowdy and frumpy. I can't remember the last time my clothes fit well, I felt well or pretty. Please help me I am SOOOO ready for a change. I need to get my weight under control before it damages my health, but I have never been an exerciser and really don't know where to start, losing just 25 lbs. would make a huge difference and 50 would put me close to my ideal weight, I am 5'10.
January 08, 2013 at 11:19 am
I look in the mirror and know that with some help I can become healthy and more vital for my family and myself.
January 08, 2013 at 11:19 am
I am just entering Menopause and about to become an empty-nester....I need a renewal! I am a previously in-shape skinny who has gained over 30 pounds! Trying all sorts of herbal remedies for hot flashes, mood swings and all of the rest, but no relief yet. I need help!!!
I am an emotional mess and feel like my brain is turning to mush. I can't use estrogen because I am a breast cancer survivor (9 years in March!)
So please help me if you can, I really need it!
January 08, 2013 at 11:18 am
It would be a great pick me up. Physically and mentally.
January 08, 2013 at 11:18 am
Just plain old sick and tired of looking at myself in a mirror and feeling frumpy and fat! I want to feel better about myself inside and out!
January 08, 2013 at 11:17 am
I went into menopause in my late 40's. Til that time I maintained a fairly healthy weight of 135 to 145 lbs. over the first couple of years of menopause I gained almost 100 lbs. I tried eating less and stretching, nothing seemed to really work. I am 57 now, still in menopause, and the last couple of years my weight has seemed to level off, however, I still can't seem to lose more than 5 or 10 lbs. Please help! I am ready to try this program and make it work!
January 08, 2013 at 11:17 am
I am fabulous at 53 (this Saturday!) - but I need to learn more about what I need to stay healthy at this age. Vitamins? Supplements? And an exercise routine. Thanks for being so Fabulous Over Fifty!
January 08, 2013 at 11:16 am
I was forced into menopause by a complete hysterectomy 10 years ago. I suffered with getting my hormones straightened out for approximately 6 of those years. I still have some symptoms, but have learned to cope. I NEED a menopause makeover. Thanks for your consideration.
January 08, 2013 at 11:15 am
After a very rough divorce, I had to move in with my sister and became depressed and did not want to do anything but go home from work and sit. During the divorce, I also began the wonderful journey through menopause and that certainly didn't help matters either. I would go home and just sit and watch TV. I finally came to the realization that I needed to put myself first and would love to have the help of someone who has made the transformation and I want to feel good about myself again.
January 08, 2013 at 11:15 am
For the first time in my life I'm understanding that I want to be fit and healthy more than I want to be skinny! I'm just starting the menopause process and I really need help.
January 08, 2013 at 11:13 am
Sole caregiver of my 24 year old daughter. She is disabled, but has gotten so much better. My turn! I am seeking employment in a terrible economy...being over 50 makes this rather rough. Ready and able!
January 08, 2013 at 11:11 am
I stayed in shape until 65 and back problems. I want to get back in shape and not injure my back!
January 08, 2013 at 11:11 am
I imagine we are all in the same boat, we meaning the women in menopause. It has to be one of the best concealed subjects buried deeply then covered with stigma & myths leaving us out in the cold to fend for ourselves.
January 08, 2013 at 11:10 am
I HAVE A NEW MAN IN MY LIFE, AND I WANT TO LOOK GOOD FOR HIM BUT DEFINETLY FOR ME. I ALSO HAVE TYPE 2 DIABETES WHICH IS UNDER CONTROL. THIS IS THE BEST TIME IN MY LIFE TO LOOK REALLY GOOD FOR MY AGE, WHICH IS 51.
January 08, 2013 at 11:08 am
I would love to have help in relocating myself in this new phase of my life! What is the new diet/calorie level for me? What type of facial moisturizer do I now need to use? What level of fitness can I expect to maintain (without killing myself at the gym). Is my hair really getting this thin? And so on......
January 08, 2013 at 11:08 am
I am in desperate need of a Menopause Makeover. I am 46 and have gained 50 pounds which is aggrevating every medical problem I have. I am starting Menopause and really not a real good time to start. I just need to feel better about myself.
January 08, 2013 at 11:08 am
I started menopause when I had to have a hysterectomy at age 30. I am unable to take hormone therapy. I need all the help I can get...
January 08, 2013 at 11:08 am
I am turning 50 in February and already wearing a black armband. I have been tortured by my weight (and inability to lose it) throughout my 40s. PLEASE HELP!
January 08, 2013 at 11:08 am
I'd like a makeover because who doesn't want to look as good as they did in their 20's or 30's...when they're nearing 50???
January 08, 2013 at 11:06 am
I am empty nester who want to improve herself
January 08, 2013 at 11:06 am
I am 59 years old and feel 35 in terms of my energy but I can't get my body out of the menopause dumps. I worked with a personal trainer who kicked my ass three times a week for nine months - no change. I radically changed my diet, dropping dairy, grains, sugar, soy, corn, alcohol, and eggs, and started eating grass-fed beef after being almost vegetarian for 40 years - no change. I'm drinking protein shakes once or twice a day and taking fiber - no change. My doctor says I'm fine, and that getting in shape as you get older "just takes more time." I think that's bullshit. I need a jumpstart - that's why I want to win. Because I want my outside to reflect the youthfulness I feel inside.
January 08, 2013 at 11:05 am
Who wouldn't want to look like this in just 12 weeks? I'd be happy with half the results!
January 08, 2013 at 11:04 am
This is a good motivation and real help to feel young again.
January 08, 2013 at 11:03 am
At 52 I really could use this!!!!!!!!!!
January 08, 2013 at 11:01 am
The weight gain has been a constant battle and many cannot afford to have this counseling so I hope one of the Lu ky winners is in this category.
January 08, 2013 at 11:01 am
She looks fabulous, I could use some help.
January 08, 2013 at 10:58 am
I want a menopause makeover because I am baffled by the changes in my body-HELP!
January 08, 2013 at 10:58 am
I just want to look and feel good again!
January 07, 2013 at 11:25 pm
i think i really need it
January 07, 2013 at 06:22 pm
At 54, I have been dealing with the sadness of menopause for years. I'm feeling tired, old and used up. I need a way to feel better about myself.
January 07, 2013 at 11:34 am
Married 30 years and want the spark back
January 07, 2013 at 10:21 am
Because I need it...
January 07, 2013 at 09:09 am
I just am not graciously going into my last trimester of life. In fact, I'm fighting it all the way. I'd love some help in making sure that I am as healthy and cognitive as possible as I cruise through life. Ms. Jonekos sounds like the answer to my prayers.
January 07, 2013 at 07:44 am
Not for me; for the wife! HELP!
January 06, 2013 at 09:41 pm
I am so tired of looking old and tired and fat. I want to look like I feel inside, pretty great. I want to look good in my clothes and stay healthy.
January 06, 2013 at 09:12 pm
I have always loved life and have always looked forward to a new day, with interactions with people and friends. Lately that has changed. I turned 51 and I have lost the enthusiasm, the joi de vivre, if you will, that I once had. I know it's due to the dreaded peri-menopause that has set in even more stubbornly these days. It feels like it's coming relentlessly and nothing will stop it. I would love some guidance and a Menopause Makeover would be a wonderful gift! Thanks!
January 06, 2013 at 06:21 pm

January 05, 2013 at 05:08 pm
Being acountable may be the factor that I need
January 05, 2013 at 04:57 pm

I turned 51 last year and I just would love to be able to put on a nice dress and not have to worry about the monster who sits on my stomach, no amount of praying, starving myself, dieting or just wishing for the love of God, that this unwanted guest would just leave. I m so disappointed and vexed by this , that I am always in a panic. so please help me..
the other part of that is this ,I am a giver and I would love to be on the receiving end just once.
January 04, 2013 at 09:49 pm

January 04, 2013 at 09:16 pm
I REALLY, REALLY could use this. I have hot flashes and I have gained 15+ pounds since entering menopause. Its very frustrating when you eat like a mouse and still gain weight. In my early 50s now and just want to feel normal again
January 04, 2013 at 08:07 pm
I am 52 and I feel real need to have this product. I hope I will be chosen to get it.
January 04, 2013 at 06:53 pm
I am 51, 5'4 and 123 pounds. Sounds about right for my height; however I have entered the world of menopause and for the life of me, no matter how much power walking, exercising, ballroom dancing and eating healthy, I cannot lose the belly fat that I've retained after having my two children (who are 31 and 34). I've tried everything and feel the older I get, the worse (and bigger) my belly gets. There's absolutely no solution to getting rid of that unsightly pouch around my middle. I need the help with a Menopause Makeover! It's hard to be Fabulous after 40 when battling the blulge even after all these years. Help!
January 04, 2013 at 06:34 pm
I NEED the Menopause Makeover badly. Hitting 50, menopause and back surgery and the inability to work out has seriously screwed me up. I have my 35th class reunion coming up and I want to ROCK IT!!!!
PLLLLLEEEAAASSE help me. I would give 110%
January 04, 2013 at 03:51 pm
Because I'm 49 and have tried everything to lose this weight that has crept up around my middle since I started suffering hot flashes and fuzzy thinking, including naturopathic HRT, diet, exercise, everything. Fuzzy thinking, check. Belly, still there. I just want to know who I am again when I look in the mirror, 'cause right now, I don't know who it is. If you have the magic key, I'd love to give it a shot.
January 04, 2013 at 03:48 pm
I have no idea what to wear because everything I put on any more just looks horrible. I was also told that my female parts are the size of someone 3 months pregnant huh. What do you do about that? My hair is another story all together from it falling out, to the color what is my color, and the style what is it not to long but not to short because my head looks huge when it is to short, sunglasses don't even look good on my slouchting face, family stress is riddled all over my face. Site like these help thank I will be spreading the word.

January 04, 2013 at 03:28 pm

January 04, 2013 at 02:42 pm
PLEASE!!!! I just need it!!!!
January 04, 2013 at 02:27 pm
I believe that I continue to evolve and get better each year! As I am now approaching my mid-50's, I am redefining career goals and work passion by looking at all new career options. I would like a makeover to help me be the best on the outside as I am on the inside! I also feel as that as I age, I want to use the best products possible to enhance how I look, and these porducts - and how they are used - will be different than products used in my younger years.
January 04, 2013 at 02:02 pm
I am 56 years old. I try to eat properly and exercise 5 times a week. My weight goes up and up and my energy goes down and down.
January 04, 2013 at 01:37 pm
I would love to just feel great again. I know I can't feel like 30 again, but it would be so wonderful to just feel the best that I could feel. Some more energy would be amazing!!
January 04, 2013 at 12:23 pm
When your boobs hang to your waist, your lips fall into your mouth,your eye lids fall over your eyes so it's hard to see,and your stomach and ass hang to your knees ,I think it's about time for a makeover ,don't you?
January 04, 2013 at 12:12 pm
I hate feeling the way I feel and know it's not necessary. Want to find the me - be healthy.
January 04, 2013 at 11:33 am
Hi
I would love to have a Menopause Makeover because I am at that point in my life were I feel down not energized and need to make some changes for the better and I feel this Makeover would be that push to take me to the next level.
Thank you this opportunity
January 04, 2013 at 09:25 am
I am 50 years old and no longer feel "cute." I know I could feel and look fabulous if I gave it a little effort but am having a hard time finding the time and energy for myself after taking care of my family and home. In my mind I am still young and vibrant. I want my exterior to reflect that as well. I have managed the hot sweats by taking Black Cohosh, but need some tips on weight loss, getting more energy and a more suitable way to wear my hair. Help!
January 04, 2013 at 06:08 am
My husband deserves this prize! He has been so patient with me through this process and reminds me often that I am still fabulous at 50! I haven't slept through the night in years (in fact it's 5 AM now), can't figure out what to sleep in at night due to night sweats, and am just starting to figure out the layering look for my numerous daily hot flashes. I have read books about menopause and even consulted with a compounding pharmacist who prescribed progesterone. My sister is a nurse who is in recovery from breast cancer and has begged me to stop taking progesterone, so I stopped. I am back to being a wacky and wild menopausal woman! Help! I have also been seeing a nutritionist and started taking supplements to assist with the flashes and sweats. I hope you can tell that I am open to education and change!! A Menopause Makeover would be a blessing and a great start to a Happy New Year in 2013!
Thank you so much,
"Wacky Winter"
January 04, 2013 at 05:11 am
I'm 55 and still in perimenopause with holiday periods--yes, if it's a holiday, I have a period. I'd like to help manage the change and figure out how to be the best I can be at this time in my life. Sleep, did I mention I'd like to sleep better too!!!
January 04, 2013 at 02:28 am
I would love the makeover because after having a life saving surgery last year that brought on M. I could really use the lift mentally physically and spiritually.
January 04, 2013 at 01:17 am
I have lost all interest in excercising or doing anything to boost my self-esteem. I have been a widow for 12 long years and have not even gone out on a date. I have no close friends here in AL (not my home) and as of 4 years ago, have no job either. Working WAS my excercise; now even that is gone. Winning something like this would give me a whole new lease on life. This would be a godsend for me. I haven't really gained weight; just lost all muscle tone and need someone to guide me.
January 03, 2013 at 10:41 pm
I need a Menopause Makeover to get back the old "Karen" who was full of life and outgoing...and who didn't stay home and miss out on life because she was tired and didn't like the way she looked. I'm ready for a change for the better. 2013 is my year! :-)
January 03, 2013 at 10:16 pm
I am 49 and getting close to 50 and I want my next 50 years to be fabulous. A new makeover would do wonders
January 03, 2013 at 09:49 pm
My 60th birthday is right around the corner and I don't want to look let alone feel like 60. I have been using a hormone patch since 2007 and have gained several pounds and constantly struggle with losing it.
Four years ago my husband was diagnosed with cancer so my main focus has been caring for him. I feel like this has played a key factor in my aging process. I'd love to win this makeover to give me the boost I so desperately need.
January 03, 2013 at 09:14 pm
I am approaching my 50th birthday and am the mother of a second grade boy. I want to look and feel more energetic and positive; for both of us!
January 03, 2013 at 09:00 pm
I have been on Hormone replacement therapy for 5 years now. I have stopped taking it as of the end of 2012. I don't lose weight like I used to when I was younger. I could use some help & encouragement to get started and lose the weight as well as learn to eat better and stay on track.
January 03, 2013 at 08:53 pm
I want a menopause makeover because I am working hard to lose the weight I have gained during menopause and because I I need help with the lifeless hair I have been left with due to menopause. Please Help!!!
January 03, 2013 at 08:24 pm
My hot flashes are when I want to KILL someone for looking sideways. Some things chocolate won't cure.
January 03, 2013 at 08:22 pm
I feel that over the years I have changed of course, but in some ways for the better. I am basically very happy with the way I am, but of course, with a new year, I want to improve on myself. Also I am married to a younger man, and think it would be nice to consider this as well with a makeover.
January 03, 2013 at 08:18 pm
I am 51 and have been going through the menopause process since I was 38. The hot flashes and weight gain have added challenges to my life as a Nurse and client care coordinator.
Any help I can get to help me deal with the " heat" would be greatly appreciated!
January 03, 2013 at 07:53 pm
I would like to win the menopause makeover due to losing over 100 lbs in the last 5 years. I am currently 51 and have about 25 lbs I would like to lose and am having some trouble losing it. My store starts back in 1984 when I had gastric bypass surgery. I lost 140 lbs after the surgery and kept it off about 10 years. I gained it back after the death of my Mother and am now at my lowest weight ever. I had a tummy tuck in 2012 and might have an enchancement but I am trying to lose 25 lbs before an additional surgery. I have been struggling with weight loss my whole life and would really like to take off the last 25 lbs with you help.
Thanks for considering me,
Lisa Sapiro
January 03, 2013 at 07:49 pm
At 52 I am struggling with all the symptoms of menopause, night sweats, hot flashes, and this "tire" around my middle. I have been struggling with the last for over 2 years, tried "diets" and nothing works for the long run. Lately my symptoms are severe mood swings and depression. I'm desperate to try a more holistic way to deal with this season in my life.
January 03, 2013 at 07:32 pm
It is PHANTASTIC
January 03, 2013 at 07:17 pm

I want a Menopause Makeover because I have aged within the last 2 years. I have also gained almost 40 pounds in the past year. I need a program that will get me on track to a new me!
January 03, 2013 at 05:26 pm
I'm just going into menopause and I find it uncomfortable and confusing. I'd love to have a mentor to get me started on this journey. I want to enjoy the rest of my life and I think this makeover will be a good start on this journey!
January 03, 2013 at 05:07 pm
About to turn 54, newly divorced, in major need of a Menopause Makeover. A make over of any kind. Living in Miami, Florida, being single and over thirty is tough. Newly single and over fifty is killer. Your question, why do you want a Menopause Makeover? I am in dire need of a makeover. New year, hopefully a new me!!!!
January 03, 2013 at 04:50 pm
I would love this makeover, since I'm 54, menopausal, and hypothyroid, and although I exercise regularly, I can't seem to drop those 10 lbs ever!!!
January 03, 2013 at 04:25 pm
I would love a Menopause Makeover so that I can be healthier and feel better about myself.
January 03, 2013 at 04:24 pm
I refuse to put a recent picture on Facebook since I have gained weight. I will not attend a reunion as kids thought I was fat in high school at 117 pounds and 5' 2 inches. I now weight 197. What would they say of me now.? She looks like death is approaching? I need help. PLEASE.
January 03, 2013 at 04:19 pm

Desperately want to win this.... in need of makeover in general,,, but this menopause is absolutely making it difficult,, weight issue which never existed before, makeup for fab over fifty face, ...etc... menopause is wreaking havoc all over me... Help!!
January 03, 2013 at 04:01 pm
I turned 57 and feel like throwing in the towel. I just keep gaining, and I feel awful, and I KNOW I should do something about it! A little one-on-one advice would probably give me the nudge I desperately need.
January 03, 2013 at 04:00 pm
I'm 53 and need to lose 30lbs, but since the age of 47 it's Extremely hard (aka "impossible") to lose weight! Last year I had blood tests and my hormone levels, vitamin levels, etc. are all supposedly ok, but Nothing seems to get the weight off anymore- except Rx HCG which I did for a month; I did lose 20+ lbs. that way and kept it off effortlessly, which was great! But on a recent holiday I put on 10lbs, so now I have to lose 30... Help!

For over 16 months I've been unemployed. I am taking classes and working out as time allows and doing everything I know to be good for me. I've been on six interviews in the last three months and still unable to get work. My savings and 401(k) are gone. I really need something good to happen to confirm that I am on the right page. God knows I am trying!!! But I am not seeing the return. I just need something to happen to let me know if I need to continue this course of if something else is needed.
January 03, 2013 at 03:41 pm
I'd love a makeover to feel healthy and vibrant again! I will be 60 in March and this is the hardest age for me to accept yet, 60 and sexy is the look I'm going for! I would love this makeover to show everyone that I'm not getting older, I'm getting better. I could really use a kick in the butt to eat better and exercise more. Thank you!
January 03, 2013 at 03:26 pm
I am turning 50 this year and in dire need of an improved body/diet and attitude/outlook. I am the perfect "before and after" candidate - just call it "extreme make-over: the menopause project."
January 03, 2013 at 03:16 pm
I think the question is: Why wouldn't I want a Menopause Makeover?
January 03, 2013 at 03:07 pm
Because being Fab over Fifty is overwhelming enough without the awesome support of Menopause makeover articles which have helped me transition into my fifties knowing others are going the thru the same challenges!
January 03, 2013 at 03:06 pm
I desperately need a makeover in general, and menopause is part of the whole picture, possibly the most important and contributing factor for me. What better place to start for the New Year? Thanks for the chance!
January 03, 2013 at 03:05 pm
I am 54 years old and I would love the whole experience of getting an exercise and beauty plan as a way to make me feel better as a whole person. Menopause isn't something a woman can bypass without some pain, hotness, sweatiness and a lot of changes that dissapoint you.
This would give me a chance to remember to joy of being a woman rather than drugery.

I am in the midst of menopause and need to lose weight, change my style and just generally be invigorated. I am always tired.
January 03, 2013 at 02:58 pm
In the past two years, everything has changed, both physically and emotionally. I just turned 49 years old, and am tired of struggling in silence. Really need help and support to understand what is happening to my body and mind, and how to deal with these changes in a healthy manner. So much advice and information out there, it is overwhelming. Am hoping that the Menopause Makeover will mean the beginning of a new life and renewed hope.
January 03, 2013 at 02:41 pm
I need something to get me jumped started in making a change in my life. I am single and can't seem to meet the right men.
January 03, 2013 at 02:35 pm
I have spent the last 15 years raIsing and homeschooling my girls. Now they are in school and i'VE LOST MYSELF. i HAVEN'T FOCUSED ON ME IN A VERY LONG TIME AND IT SHOWS
January 03, 2013 at 02:10 pm
So sick of feeling old and over weight. I have juiced..eaten healthy and no relief from the menopause pooch =( I have never been so round and I would love to have some help!
January 03, 2013 at 02:05 pm
I want a menopause makeover because life and this menopause stuff has gotten the best of me. I am discouraged. I know there is a place for a new start for me and this could be it.
January 03, 2013 at 02:03 pm
I need need it so much. My face is filled with brown spots. Ugly wrinkles. Please help. PLEASE!!!!!!!
January 03, 2013 at 02:01 pm
I am the only member in my family, from grandmothers (Paternal and Maternal) to Aunts, Mother and even Sister who is going through natural menopause. So, basically I have no reference point!
I am a fairly active, healthy person, but feel I need some guidance and kind words and support to get me through this next phase of my life.
I need a lift, physically and mentally. Thank you.
January 03, 2013 at 01:54 pm
Just before turning 40 I suffered a severe bout of viral encephalitis. To reduce the swelling on my brain they treated it is steriods amoung other things for over 6 months. I blew up like a balloon. Then I turned 40. Seemed like someone flicked a light switch. Losing weight seemed impossible no matter what I did.
I am now approaching 50, 35 lbs heavier than at 40 and trying to find sense in the sudden recent lost my 25 year old daughter. I don't know if i've been lower in my life, but if I could find a way to lose the weight, lift my spirits and get out of this depression it would be like a miracle.
January 03, 2013 at 01:49 pm
I feel frumpy. My skin looks crepey. I need a new perspective to freshen myself up!
January 03, 2013 at 01:46 pm
Think all the people in my life would like me to have a Menopause Makeover! I don't think I have a problem, but they do! I do get the hot flashes and want to cry cometimes for no reason, but that's life. Need some pointers, though and would appreciate this opportunity!!
January 03, 2013 at 01:42 pm
I have been menopausal for over five years and need to get back in shape.
January 03, 2013 at 01:22 pm
Having entered menopause very early, I was and am not ready for everything it entails. The guidance and information would be a breath of fresh air.
January 03, 2013 at 11:35 am
I want it because very often IT drive's me insane, ....new year, I just turned 50!!! (Yeah!!) on Christmas Day...., I need everything new, starting with myself!
By the way, Thank you!!!
January 03, 2013 at 11:01 am
My skin is thinning, my hair texture is changing, I am tired all the time, I wake up in the middle of the night and can't go back to sleep. I want my life back! Somebody please help me...
January 03, 2013 at 08:46 am
I'm in pitiful shape. I need the help.
January 03, 2013 at 06:22 am
For the past year I have refocused my goals concerning health due to menopause. I joined a weight loss program and am happy to say that I have lost 50 lbs, still have another 15 to go. I exercise everyday for 1 hour, take vitmins and minerals. I feel better over all.
The night sweats have improved somewhat but are still and issue.
I can only think that the makeover would complete my own personal goals in this new phase of life.
January 03, 2013 at 06:05 am
It's the middle of the night, I'm wide awake, exhausted and sitting in a pool of sweat. I need a Menopause Makeover!
January 03, 2013 at 03:39 am
I started menopause at the age 43. I was not sure what was happening as I did not even consider menopause. I was going for high blood pressure, sugar name a few until I asked my doctor to check for menopause. On my birthday 2011 I received he call to say it was very high. It has changed my life dramatically and have not been able to find the right medication so just coping on my own. It hs changed my relationship with my husband (which he does nit seem to understand). I am putting on weight and is making me very unconfident. I would be thrilled to have Staness Jonekos helping me through this aweful period in my life.
Kind Regards, Lynda
January 03, 2013 at 02:58 am
im worn out-please help!!!
January 03, 2013 at 02:08 am
I am in desperate need of a menopause makeover. I have recently healed from a broken right lower leg- both bones, while walking across my living room to get a glass of water. It has taken 10 months for it to heal and I have been quite debilitated physically and emotionally from this constant non weight bearing.
I want to feel like a woman again, with needs, wants and to look and feel as if I care about my appearance.
I currently wear pajamas all day and only dress to go to the store or errands. I need motivation and help in getting started exercising and eating right. Please Help!
January 03, 2013 at 02:07 am
New year, new body...I know I can find my thin self again...somewhere.
January 03, 2013 at 01:52 am
Goodness me. I would love to win this. For the past two years, I have gained over fifteen kilos. I have no more energy for myself. I don't sleep right.
I'm tired of wearing oversized clothes, which at this moment is so unflattering.
I need this.
January 03, 2013 at 12:41 am
I need this make over because I feel like I'm just running in place. I can't seem to get myself motivated to exercise or motivated life. People that know me would say that I'm fun and energetic. That may be true for the people that I need to care and motivate each day but when incomes to myself I just can't get the ball rolling. I need help with putting my needs as far as health and wellness first. I do get concerned about that. I am a mother of three children and my youngest is only six. I would be thrilled to have the opportunity to work with Staness Jonekos.
January 02, 2013 at 11:49 pm
I would like to be fit, flexible, and strong to be able to engage in many community projects and individual work with women over 50 who are facing illness and hard times.
I have a number of good ideas and having the energy to carry them out would be a dream come true.
January 02, 2013 at 11:27 pm
I have been struggling with chronic pain for 12 years. Besides dealing with the pain, I also have the side effects of menopause to contend with. I feel tired and much older than my age and would so appreciate the luxury of winning this great chance at a makeover.
January 02, 2013 at 11:05 pm
I would be so much more production at work, at home, in the community if I felt better physically and felt better about how I look. I work in a university and have the opportunity to be a role model for older students entering the university to gain their educational goals. It would be great if I could be an even more positive role model for them.
January 02, 2013 at 11:02 pm
In this day in age we need someone to look after us for a change.
January 02, 2013 at 10:49 pm
I want a MeNopause makeover as I am strangling with Menopause and this would give the pick me up I need. I am hurting.
January 02, 2013 at 10:34 pm
I want to win because I have years ahead of me that I want to ENJOY! No more puffing up and down stairs. No more squeezing into my jeans. I have two grandgirls I love more than the moon--and I want to take them SO many places with me. But i have got to be fitter to do it. Thanks!
January 02, 2013 at 10:31 pm
At 61 I feel and look pretty good, but everyone can use a makeover once in their life. I have always said that this should be one of the best times of a womans life and now I really want to look and feel that. With the Menopase Makeover I can accomplish the goals of living life to its fullest.
Sincerely,
Vicki Morgan
January 02, 2013 at 10:01 pm
I need a menopause makeover. I had cancer a few years ago and I still have all the side effects from it, I have gained 40 something pounds, lost my job because of it and now I'm starting to get hot flashes and I'm also now sleeping well and have no energy either.
January 02, 2013 at 09:23 pm
I want to win a Menopause Makeover because I desperately need it! Each part of this prize is something that I could make good use of, let me tell you.
January 02, 2013 at 09:19 pm
I'm at a point in my life where I am ready for a second start. This would be a great help.
January 02, 2013 at 09:11 pm
Not only am I in menopause, I have also had fibromyalgia for the past 16 years. Talk about letting yourself go when you are tired and in pain every day. I have no motivation, I am tired of yoga pants and hoodies, and I don't like this extra thickness I've gained around the middle. With fibromyalgia I have trouble getting to sleep at night, with menopause it's even worse. Getting to sleep at 4 or 5am is frustrating. I really need a menopause makeover.
January 02, 2013 at 09:09 pm
Is a makeover at 60 realistic, or just dreaming of the past? Nothing would make me happier than going back a few years and recapture that youth....
January 02, 2013 at 09:09 pm
Eliminate stress, fatigue and body changes while keeping steady with a younger man
January 02, 2013 at 08:40 pm
Because I've kind of let myself go since I've been in my 50s and I want to turn things around in 2013!
January 02, 2013 at 08:37 pm
I always believed that when my time came to reach Menopause I would be well prepared, afterall I have read everything necessary to understand the process. Well my body has changed to the point where I don't feel as though I am even the same person. I know I could use your personal coaching to help me make better choices and overcome this body and like you I want to reach my physical best.
January 02, 2013 at 08:30 pm
My recent battle with breast cancer, and the related medicine, has forced me into what I call "the menopause from hell"! I had no idea menopause could be this life changing and not in a good way! I've lost my once youthful looking body, and look much like Staness' "before" figure. I would love to kickstart myself again after dealing with cancer and this menopause makeover would be a wonderful way to begin!
January 02, 2013 at 08:29 pm
because I SO need it, night sweats, wrinkles gallore and general malaise.
January 02, 2013 at 07:13 pm
I feel like I have been menopausal for the last 17 years. I have gained weight, lost my energy and now I am frumpy. I used not be a frump. I put everyone else first and forgot about me. I also feel out of balance. HELP!
January 02, 2013 at 07:01 pm
It has been so hard to keep the weight off and to keep my skin hydrated since I reached menopause. I need some extra help!
January 02, 2013 at 07:00 pm
I work very hard and consistently on keeping fit and eating right. At 54, I am struggling with my efforts while watching my body change (not for the better!) and literally losing sleep.
I would say that I probably am at the point of desperation and over-exercising. I really feel having a professional look at the whole picture could really improve my health, appearance and overall well-being.
January 02, 2013 at 06:19 pm
I have just recently realized I haven't taken care of "me" for a very, very long time. Everyone in my family and everything else in my life has always come first: my children, a business, an ex-husband that thought infidelity was okay for 25 years, caring for my 92 year old Mom for the last ten years of her life until she passed away at home with me, a re-marriage to a wonderful man who was diagnosed with a terrible disease and is now disabled that I take care of. I recently looked in the mirror and feel like I've aged quickly. Hot flashes, dry crinkly skin, thick mid-section, exhaustion are a normal part of what I am now. In the past people always mistook me for 10-15 years younger. I'd love to look and feel the best I can at 55 years old and finally take care of ME.
January 02, 2013 at 06:19 pm
Words cannot express how badly I could use a makeover. I desperately need to loose weight and I am tired all the time. My idea of a good time is to go to bed early.
January 02, 2013 at 06:13 pm
I need a change at my age.
January 02, 2013 at 05:54 pm
menopause has caused me to feel edgy, irritable, short on patience, quick to anger - it is taking most of my energy to manage it and behave how I want to be rather than in reaction ! I would be so grateful to reverse some of the aging to my body that has happened. I am willing to acknowledge the change but want to make the most of it. So grateful for this opportunity !
January 02, 2013 at 05:49 pm
Menopause is difficult :(
January 02, 2013 at 05:43 pm
Why haven't we been warned how awful menopause is! Had I known, I would have done things differently. Menopause hit the same time I was diagnosed with celiac disease. A makeover is really needed, I need all the help I can get!
January 02, 2013 at 05:16 pm
Why? I'm 52 and menopause is hitting me like a freight train! I'd luv ideas on what to do to get through it.
January 02, 2013 at 04:43 pm
I have been through hell and back . Survivng Breast cancer and radiation while my daughter was a Junior in high school. I have a son who is lost and every day the stress of his ways and bad descions weigh heavy on my heart and soul. Stress is not good for the body or mind no to mention what menopause can do.
I really could use something uplifting and positive in my life.
January 02, 2013 at 04:24 pm
I'd love a menopause makeover so I can feel comfortable and not too hot!
January 02, 2013 at 04:15 pm
Menopause is difficult believe me.
January 02, 2013 at 03:45 pm
Why NOT!??? I would love to look and feel fabulous especially during menopause.
January 02, 2013 at 03:39 pm
I am at the state where I don't know if I am coming or going. I am 53 and I could definitely use some pampering and get that full experience of menopausal makeover. I would be well prepared and heads on with what's happening, and embrace the moments!
January 02, 2013 at 03:22 pm
First issue would be weight gain and tiredness! The tiredness not helping the working out problem! or lack thereof! Years of habits regarding hair, make-up, clothing... working excessive hours and communting wearing me down both physically and emotionally. Jowels and upper lip lines making me look older - yuch! Lack of sex drive rounds off the complex issues.
To top it off I have just found out I have a very bad arthritic spine and have one herniated disk and bulging disc... Not having fun at all as now I'm putting more weight on from the meds!
PLEASE HELP!!
January 02, 2013 at 03:17 pm
So I can get my life and my body back!!!!!
January 02, 2013 at 02:37 pm
Knowledge is power!!! Want to know more about all thats going on and will go on. There are so many women in my life that have many opinions about menopause. Another strong woman's point of view can't hurt!!
January 02, 2013 at 02:27 pm
I would love to win this makeover,because I have tried to exercise and stay in shape.It is hard for me to keep my body in shape,because I work, and with coming home and working around the house it don't give me a lot of time.If I win this makeover and Staness Jonekos and she help me make my body look better feel sexier I would be on top of the world I couldn't be happier.
January 02, 2013 at 02:21 pm
I turned 60 recently and have noticed myself looking OLD. I don't like what I see and would love to look 40 again. Please help me find my younger self.
January 02, 2013 at 01:36 pm
It will make me feel better and more sexier it it's healthier to follow a good eating plan. It definitely shows on any woman's face and the beauty sparkle all over again.
January 02, 2013 at 01:24 pm
I have a real issue with learning how to take care of my body as a woman. I want to remain in good overall health and be a positive role model for women who are also having difficulty being a beautiful "woman" not a young girl. It is harder than ever to lose weight at this age and remain positive.
January 02, 2013 at 01:19 pm
I turned 50 in 2012 and want to keep my shape as I enter the menopausal years. I believe it's all part of living healthy, eating right, and being good to ourselves, which allows us to be good to everyone in our circle of family, friends and community.
January 02, 2013 at 01:18 pm
I need help with the rashes I am fighting with. Just want to feel and look better.
January 02, 2013 at 01:15 pm
I'm about to turn 60, and need to lose about 20 pounds, it's tough!
January 02, 2013 at 01:02 pm
Even if I wanted to look like her, it would never happen. I have a different figure. However, I definitely need help in this area, big time.
January 02, 2013 at 01:02 pm
I'm 49 and already starting to feel the affects. Thanks
January 02, 2013 at 12:53 pm
I could certainly use a Menopause Makeover! I have been struggling with this for a few years now. When will it ever be over!
January 02, 2013 at 12:43 pm
I want a Menopause Makeover because I have very few hot flashes now but my body is so different now. I don't lose weight like I use to. My workouts don't work like they used to. I don't know what to do now. Everything is so different now since Menopause. Please help!!
January 02, 2013 at 12:39 pm
I am not too sure I just really want to win anything that can be won, but i really do need a make over of any kind.
January 02, 2013 at 12:37 pm
I am 45 and approaching menopause and want to be prepared and preventative.
January 02, 2013 at 12:29 pm
Would love to win this and get a wonderful new body for 2013!!
January 02, 2013 at 12:29 pm
I would love a chance at trying these products. Thank you.
January 02, 2013 at 12:24 pm
after a stressful decade of caregiving, loss and widowhood, I need to be the best me possible. I deserve i!
January 02, 2013 at 11:58 am
OMG I want to feel healthy and pretty and energized. At 57 I want to be the best I can be. I'm going to check out this book!
January 02, 2013 at 11:52 am
I never thought menopause would be so bad!
HELP
January 02, 2013 at 11:41 am
I was fortunate to be thin without too much effort most of my life, so when I've kept a good fitness routine, I've looked great! Now it's taking a lot of effort to even stay "average." and if I slip too far off exercise I look pudgier than Staness' before photo, despite eating healthily and not to excess. Makeover needed!
January 02, 2013 at 11:40 am
To lose this belly that has "somehow" appeared and make my clothes fit better
January 02, 2013 at 11:08 am
Feel like I am starting to "give up" on how I look. Would like something to jump start my attitude and my actions.
January 02, 2013 at 11:05 am
Since I have gone thru menopause in my late 40's I have slowly gained weight until now I weigh 225 lbs. I have 5 children with the last two born when I was 37 and 39. I went into menopause at the age of 45, lost my husband at the age of 46 and have raised the children by myself. I have worked two jobs and taken care of the needs of my kids but never took the time to take care of myself. I now have time to think about me but do not know how to start since i am older and out of shape. Alot of programs are for young girls but the type of exercise is way over my head! Please help!
January 02, 2013 at 10:53 am
I just feel like a dud... I wanna feel like I use to!!... I need to lose weight badly and it seems to suck onto me like a leach!
January 02, 2013 at 10:51 am
I lost a lot of weight when I turned 40, actually I got really sick and lost weight, but I have learned to live with my illness and now menopause!! Damn! Double whamo! Now I've started gaining weight, have no energy, feel blah all of the time, and don't know how to get back on track. Please help.
Thanks, Kerry
January 02, 2013 at 10:50 am
I want the Menopause Makeover because what is happening now is working! HELP!
January 02, 2013 at 10:19 am
my menopausel middle! once it arrived it refused to leave!
January 02, 2013 at 10:15 am
I would love a Menopause Makeover because for the first time in my life, I feel that my body is betraying me. I simply can't get over the fact that I am sweating like the droplets on a steam pipe and drying up like baked clay both at the same time.
January 02, 2013 at 10:08 am
I would love a menopause makeover because I am now one year away from 60 (in a few days), I will be a grandmother 2X this year and when I look in the mirror I wonder where the "girl" I used to be has gone.
January 02, 2013 at 10:00 am
I will be 63 this year and I am in need of help to slim down and control my menopause symptons. My hair, nails, skin could benefit from a makeover. My modeling days have long passed but I now need motivation to get back into my old dress size.
January 02, 2013 at 09:56 am
I need to get moving and seriously tackle losing weeight! easier said than done, I could really use the help.
January 02, 2013 at 09:53 am
I am age 52, perimenopausel, but have been experiencing affects; irritability, sweats, etc. Still have periods.
January 02, 2013 at 09:53 am
WOW! I would LOVE to see how Staness can help me tone my body. It is hard to see the changes my body has gone through, and I am ready to work hard and whip it back into shape! I just need someone to encourage and guide me in order to maintain the necessary discipline.
SIGN ME UP! Thanks
January 02, 2013 at 09:49 am
I am a housewife with 2 sons. I used to look dress & look nice, but lately not feeling it. I need help w/ my hair, it seems to be thinning.
January 02, 2013 at 09:49 am
I would like to look as well as I feel for someone about to turn 59 in March!
January 02, 2013 at 09:48 am
I need this makeover because I have gone from 110 in my prime to 179 at my highest weight. For the past year and a half I have been trying to lose weight and become more active. I am off all my hormone pills and doing okay but really need to get the weight off for health reasons. I am at 144 at present and I want a new me in the new year.
January 02, 2013 at 09:47 am
I gained 60 pounds after menopause. Time to get back in shape
January 02, 2013 at 09:46 am
I need help in my life, it was easy for me to lose weight when I was younger and now it's not. I got divorced four years ago and have been trying to just survive. My daughter got married in November and I just got engaged Christmas Day and I would like to learn how to be healthier and lose weight. I want to look fabulous in a wedding dress.
January 02, 2013 at 09:43 am
I was diagnosed with breast cancer four years ago and because of treatment went directly into menopause. Couple that with a diagnosis of MS and a four month course of heavy steroids & I gained 25 pounds rather quickly. I definitely could use a little bit of help to take it off.
January 02, 2013 at 09:24 am
I understand that I'm going into a new era in my life but I don't like how, all of a sudden, I'm looking so much older. I'm not sure what to do to slow it down a little. I don't want to look 20 again (well, I wouldn't mind it) but how do I not look 65 either.
January 02, 2013 at 09:09 am
it s time to look my best
January 02, 2013 at 09:06 am
I started road cycling 3 yrs ago to get in shape, in hopes that getting in shape my sudden onset of sweats would stop. No such thing, after 3years of cycling I have lost over 40lbs but still have at least 30 more to go and seem to have hit a Wall!
I go out to dinner with friends have a nice glass of wine and break out in a sweat! I find myself looking for air vents to either stand under or sit under when I go out. Changing my pj's in the middle of the night has become a common occurrence in my life. My family says my house is like Antartica. I stopped menstruating about 5 moths ago and I noticed changes in my body. I became dry all over and seemed dehydrated! What is going on??? I bought extra moisturizing cream, vaginal cream went to the Dr. UGH!
Pre-menopause hmmmm, I think I want to give it back!
To top it off I wear a men's uniform to work an I am in desperate need for a change! HELP!

I would love a menopause makeover because the night sweats are ruining my sleep at night!

I am 46 and have been pre-menopaose for almost ten years. I am starting a new chapter in my life and this makeover wouls be a great part of it.
January 02, 2013 at 08:48 am
I'm 57, newly retired. I'm starting a new life in energy work and would love any type of makeover to go with my new life.
January 02, 2013 at 08:00 am
What a great package! As a recent entrant into peri menopause, I'm looking now for ways to help prevent some of the worst side effects. Winning this package would be a definite step in the right direction.

It is need not want. I turned 52 on January 1, 2013 and have put on so much weight in the past year. I try and watch what I am eating, I exercise regularly but the weight keeps on pilling on. HELP.
January 02, 2013 at 07:39 am
I'm not quite menopausal yet, peripause.
I was an avid runner used to log 36 mi/week, now having
knee pain and inflammation and am unable to run. I have yet to find a new fitness niche that I enjoy and I'm
looking for some direction. I've gained about 40 pounds,
and really dislike myself for letting this happen. I've got a closet full of clothing I can't fit into and really need some
help
January 02, 2013 at 07:34 am

January 02, 2013 at 07:33 am

January 02, 2013 at 07:33 am
I'm way past Menopause (age 70), but really need this makeover. Especially the moisture wicking products! The night hot flashes and sweats are and have been ongoing. I have that stubborn "old lady" belly that will only go away with massive crunches (ouch!). In general, I need a makeover! thanks for the opportunity!
January 02, 2013 at 06:26 am
because I have been going through menopause for over 10 years and I really need some help! Would be so grateful if I won this!!!!!
January 02, 2013 at 06:11 am
As menopause set in I gained 30 lbs seemingly overnight. I also got vulvodynia and treatment with Effexor causes me to have no sex drive or sexual response. During this same time span I lost a long term career and have yet to find viable replacement, my live in boyfriend turned to drugs & alcohol so I had to move him out and I have had ongoing plumbing issues that have required months of hotel stays and great expense. I am tired, broke, trying to find a new career and could really use a boost.
January 02, 2013 at 05:34 am
I need a makeover to recover my sexy, hot bod and my modesty.
January 02, 2013 at 03:50 am
Although I feel like I don't present as totally awful...I think I could be vastly improved...seems as if I have one foot in one look, and my other foot just sort of dangling...in no man's land.....wishing away my big tummy/waist is not working...I need guidance....please help !
January 02, 2013 at 03:13 am
I am in perimenopause. I'm in terrible shape, I'm terribly uncomfortable, and I'd love to have some help doing something about it!
January 02, 2013 at 01:44 am
because i'm going thru menopause
January 02, 2013 at 12:44 am
I would love to have the fix for my menopause problems. I need it to feel right and to like myself again.
January 02, 2013 at 12:40 am
I'm past menopause , but really need a makeover. Plus I need an extra kick in the butt to get me started. Thanks for this opportunity.
January 02, 2013 at 12:39 am
I am 58 and have absolutely forgotten how to feel like a womqn since menopause bowled me over at 51. Now I have come out of the fog and have made progress on my own to reclaim my feminity by indulging myself with lyopsagge, massage, facials, and even medilift treatments. I have lost inches and pounds but have to really reach further to get back my best physical and mental shape and feel having personal encouragement from a woman who has been through menopause and came out the other side better and healthier would be the boost I really need. I hope to win this Menopause Makeover to really "put the icing on the cake" regarding my reinvention of myself as a vibrant, energetic woman.
January 02, 2013 at 12:24 am
I really need this. I just turned 50 and I am 30 pounds over weight. It is affecting my sleep, emotions, and weight. No matter what I try it doesn't work. I have food cravings for carbs and chocolate. I really need someone to help with this. It's affecting my relationships with my husband, kids, family and friends. My adult kids say I have an inner tube around my belly. It's very depressing because I have tried dieting and working out to no avail. It's very depressing when you have no control. Please help me get my life back. My family and friends will really appreciate it, and so will I.
January 02, 2013 at 12:24 am
I am a 56 y/o single mom and now I'm an empty nester who has looked the same since I was 21. I need expert help !!
January 02, 2013 at 12:03 am
Gosh, after reading everyone's stories and comments, I don't feel like there is anything left to say, but "HELP!" We all need some help. For me, personally, I have aged more the last 5 years than I have in my entire life. I am on Disability and that limits my access to healthcare and other things that would help me. I have 2 little granddaughters 4 & 7 and I would love to be able to spend some time with them - they have a hard time understanding why "Mimi" is always crying and "unavailable." I married for the first time at the age of 47, thinking I had finally found Mr. Right and it's been very abusive. I need some help, a coach, etc.
January 01, 2013 at 11:54 pm
My attitude is more of "ho-hum" rather than "let's go" like it used to be. I have noticed the thickening of the waist & the over whelming burden to get it off. I want the zing back in my step.
January 01, 2013 at 11:52 pm
After hitting menopause, my lifestyle, choices and health make managing menopause difficult if not impossible. I need help by someone I can talk to.
January 01, 2013 at 11:50 pm
Just so stressed with it all. I need help!
January 01, 2013 at 11:46 pm
I would like a menopause makeover because I can't seem to get off 15-20...keeps coming back.
January 01, 2013 at 11:45 pm
because I am getting to that point & I want it to go as smoothly as possible
January 01, 2013 at 11:44 pm
hotflashes are killing me
January 01, 2013 at 11:35 pm
I am 51. I've owned a cleaning business for 20 years. The work has kept me in ok shape, but lately, my body has changed. Maybe my metabolism is slowing down, and it seems like I am losing muscle. It would be great to get back on track and feel more energized too.
January 01, 2013 at 11:35 pm
I don't have a book published but I do have a YT channel for women over 50. I will be 62 in March and you can take a look at some of my videos to see that I am in great shape. Went careening into menopause at 53 with a TAH with BSO and had to make serious changes in my diet. I could suddenly look at food and gain weight. Fortunately my educational background provided me with a foundation for making healthy changes and choices. What I do is not complicated but effective.
Going to be addressing some diet issues in 2013 and would be thrilled to share with anyone who is interested.
All you need to be able to leave questions and comments is to create a YT account and subscribe. The best part is-it is free!
YouTube Channel is here- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kx8pIDcaquA

January 01, 2013 at 11:27 pm
I would love to get back in shape as I was before the hot flashes started in Apri along with interrupted sleep.
January 01, 2013 at 11:27 pm
I would love a Menopause Makeover cuz right now I exercise everyday and eat only veggies, fruit and chicken and I can't seem to get toned anymore or drop any weight at all. Feels like I'm "running in place" so to speak. Help!!!
January 01, 2013 at 11:21 pm
Wow! A Menopause Makeover sounds like a dream come true! As an elementary music teacher for over 1,000 kids, I have to be on top of my game every minute of the week. With menopause, the extra weight gain, the lack of sleep, the hot flashes and mood swings, day to day can be quite difficult! I would LOVE to have some help from such a wise woman! If I don't win this makeover, I certainly plan to read her book! Help me out of my own "living nightmare" of menopause, PLEASE!?!
January 01, 2013 at 11:12 pm
I just got it: Menopause with big M. And it is killing me! I hope this product can help me to fight those flashes and irritations and dryness, and... I really need a Menopause Makeover.
January 01, 2013 at 11:01 pm
I no longer feel good about myself, I definitely don't look on the outside the way I feel on the inside, which is definitely younger than what I see in the mirror. I need major help!
January 01, 2013 at 11:01 pm
I've wanted a Makeover since I was SEVENTEEN, this one actually SOUNDS Appropriate, and makes SENSE!
January 01, 2013 at 10:59 pm
I need this.. I've had the worst year of my life.. hubby diagnosed with two cancers.. and then he had a motorcycle accident and broke 16 ribs this past November. I haven't had time to go to the gym, or even walk... I need a set schedule and a coach to help me get back on track!
PICK ME PLEASE!

January 01, 2013 at 10:58 pm
i would love to win a menopause makeover! it would be wonderful to be fit, healthy and look good again. plus my husband is 7 years younger than i am and i know he would appreciate a healthy, fit wife.
January 01, 2013 at 10:44 pm
I used to look like the "after" picture, but after menopause, I now look like the "before" picture. I want to get myself back in balance and have my new before picture become the true after picture. I need my clothes to fit again, but more than that, my cholesterol and blood pressure are high and my health is going downhill. I need to get healthy again by losing weight and getting in shape again.
January 01, 2013 at 10:44 pm
I am 56 and have gained 30 lbs and I cannot make it budge. It doesn't matter that I am on weight watchers or that I am exercising I can't lose. I am going through menopause so I really need a meno makeover.
January 01, 2013 at 10:36 pm
I've lost quite a bit of weight over the last year, but I also lost my job. I need help!
January 01, 2013 at 10:31 pm
I went into surgical menopause at 38 and have been a bit of a mess since. Overweight, not sleeping enough you name it. So yeah, I could use a makeover :)
January 01, 2013 at 10:27 pm
After years of scrificing for family; I would love to give to self to know that at 63 plus I can still "ROCK"
January 01, 2013 at 10:24 pm
Because I want my body back!
January 01, 2013 at 10:09 pm
It's so frustrating trying to get where I want to be given menopause. Nothing seems to work.... I would love to look as good as I feel. Help!
January 01, 2013 at 10:04 pm
Oh my goodness- where do I begin to explain why I need this! This would be such a blessing to me, to have the assistance (and support) of someone like Staness Jonekos. What a motivator!
I live in a small community with no gym facilities, and it is very difficult for me to get to a gym, due to visual issues and driving limitations from that. I own my own business and work from home, so of course I work way too many hours.
The bright spot is - I do have all the gym eq
January 01, 2013 at 09:57 pm
30+ pounds over weight, 2 amazing kids, 2 volunteer jobs, 1 part time job and a very dead marriage. I just can't get my feet on the ground! At 46, I joke and tell my kids I'm only 23, because some days I feel so young and full of life, yet the energy soon fades and I struggle from the deep hole of depression.
I give everything to everyone else first, but this one I WANT WANT WANT for myself! At 23 I was a size 4. at 46 I am now a size 14. I would be trilled to see a size 8 again. I just need a good boost!
Thank you,
Linda
January 01, 2013 at 09:51 pm
It would be great if my appearance matched my youthful outlook; perhaps I could even inspire those around me to upgrade their own appearance : )
January 01, 2013 at 09:51 pm
Being 50 plus, I have lost myself. Having 5 children and no time for myself my body has morphed into something that I am completely not relating to. I feel like in my 20's but I look like I'm 70. Please. I need serious help! Thanks
January 01, 2013 at 09:44 pm
I'm not only older than you, but also I, had children...(2). That being said....bring it on ! Mid 50's ,grown children, and right now ....time....Are YOU up for the challenge???? FIX my weight with me, I'm ready....are you???
January 01, 2013 at 09:41 pm
I was 52 when my husband of 18 yrs left me and our 3 kids for a co-worker in her 30's.
I'm now 58, and my self-esteem is no better off. People used to tell me I looked in my early 40's. But 15 lbs, along with the stress of being a single parent and carrying the load on my shoulders alone is starting to take it's toll.
I don't feel that I'm worth another man's attention, much less have a relationship. My self worth is 0.
What am I supposed to do? Be alone the rest of my life... struggling financially... that's how I see it.
January 01, 2013 at 09:40 pm
I have given up on myself and need someone to inspire and coach me!!
January 01, 2013 at 09:35 pm
I am 59 and feel I’m facing my own nightmare! Starting soon I will be faced with returning work in a professional atmosphere with a high end celebrity clientele. I feel so old, tired and behind the times! I have terrible hot flashes and the thought of putting on "work clothes" and melting down in the middle of meeting is terrifying!
I'm tired, I'm not sleeping well so the other scary thing is HAVING to get up in the morning regardless of how much sleep I got the night before or how tired I feel and spending every day just pushing through! I can’t afford to be so tired that I’m caught drifting off in a late afternoon meeting!
I also have 20-30 pounds to lose (although 10 would make my clothing more comfortable) and honestly, although I have more experience and expertise than most in my field, I'm TERRIFIED of this transition. People say I look younger than I am but when you're standing next to Cindy Crawford, trust me, that doesn't mean much!
I desperately want to tackle this new opportunity with a new self or at least with my "old" vigor and enthusiasm but right now I feel my "get up and go - got up and went" with the first sign of menopause.
This return to work is not an option. My husband can no longer work. Last year we lost our house and 4 years ago (after our adult children moved home) we supported 9 people for three years depleting our retirement and savings. Now they kids are back on their feet but we’re faced with LITERALLY starting all over at a time I thought I’d be retiring.
I feel SO BLESSED and fortunate to even have a second career opportunity at my age (my old employer hired me back) but my boss is now 24 (I KNOW, RIGHT?) and I just feel so old. My husband is 8 years younger than I am and I hate feeling this “old” and tired.
Additionally I also have a small business I run on a Facebook site with over 10,000 women that is all about dieting and fitness, based on the 17 Day Diet. Most of the women are between 35 and 50 so I’m starting to feel like the ole gramma instead of the LEADER of my own group.
I would LOVE to learn how to fight back, take hold of menopause and more importantly, take back my life! I don't like feeling like life has passed and I'm just waiting to die...HELP...

January 01, 2013 at 09:29 pm
Turning 53 in a few weeks and Menopause Makeover is just what I need to kick start the new year. :)
January 01, 2013 at 09:28 pm
Other than not having hot flashes, menopause has not been a good time for me.
January 01, 2013 at 09:26 pm
My husband calls me his personal heater! Not bad in the winter but come summer! I have gained weight and although I try I can not lose any of it! HELP! Please!
January 01, 2013 at 09:23 pm
I would like to be be best I can be for the best times of my life. I want to be beautiful both inside and outside to share these times with my husband.
January 01, 2013 at 09:20 pm
I have gained a few pounds each year for the last several years. Then in 2011 I stayed in the hospital and rehab center with my parents for several weeks and packed on the pounds.
I have worked double time at the gym this past year, but have not been able to do anything about my weight. I need to loose 15-25 pounds before it gets WAY out of hand.
Thanks so much for considering me.
January 01, 2013 at 09:16 pm
I am 70 pounds over what I want to be I have major knee problems with My right knee and major migraines. Also I deal with depress and sleep alot. I feel if I get this weight off I will feel amazing and be able to keep up with My 16 year old Son and younger Husband....smile
January 01, 2013 at 09:04 pm
I'm 50, frustrated, and fat. Everything that worked in my 30's and early 40's no longer applies. I'm ready to start the next chapter of my life - and I want the good health, energy, and enthusiasm to take on the challenge of starting a new career. The extra 40 lbs I am carrying is holding me back from loving myself and being the person that I aspire to be. I am ready, willing, and excited to take on this challenge and see amazing results!!!!
January 01, 2013 at 09:01 pm
Because I think menopause is a really bad idea and I want to fight back!
January 01, 2013 at 08:55 pm
I am 51 and have been in menopause for the last 2 years after surgery. It hit me hard and fast! Not so much the mood swings, the hot flashes were something else. The most irritating part of menopause is the weight! I have at least an extra 20-25 lbs. I've been struggling to lose. I would love to get rid of those added pounds. I want to feel better, look better and get back to living! I have 4 boys who are very active and I want to be there for them. Mostly, I want I want to shed the weight for me. Thank you.
January 01, 2013 at 08:54 pm
I went into surgical menopause at 36 and got engaged for the 1st time at 39, my antibodies up and killed my thyroid at 40 (Hashimoto's disease). I am now 51 and still need help getting this weight off.
January 01, 2013 at 08:41 pm
I would love to learn how to manage all of these symptoms so that I can better live through this period of my life happily !!!
January 01, 2013 at 08:40 pm
surgical menopause so transition not gradual and could use help to get my energy back.
January 01, 2013 at 08:36 pm
I am constantly drained. My energy level is zero. I could really use this boost in more ways then one
January 01, 2013 at 08:34 pm
I have lived my 52yrs trying to do the right thing, which usually involved doing for others. I am not complaining, I am happiest when I have a house full over for Sunday dinner, or baking cookies or making chicken soup for sick friends and co-workers but I usually take a back seat. I should be out dating and enjoying myself at this point in my life as my children are grown and self sufficient but I just don't feel very self-confident. I have gained about 30lbs in the last 7 yrs, I work 40-60hr weeks and I have lost that lovin feelin! The worst part of menopause are the psychological symptoms. I feel like I am on a reverse roller-coaster most days and because of the nature of my work(healthcare) I have to keep it all inside. It is both painful and fatiguing! I think a menopause makeover might be the answer to my prayers!
January 01, 2013 at 08:23 pm
Because I feel so old
January 01, 2013 at 08:20 pm
I would love a menopause makeover because I feel my life has been a wreck since I had my historic tommy, with weight gain, hormonal and physical changes...i am a pretty desperate woman who wants to find herself again.thank you
January 01, 2013 at 08:20 pm
This menopause stuff is crappy!! I long to feel like myself once again. I'm very lucky so far... not too many flashes... but I just feel 'off' and not myself. And I think the lose of estrogen is starting to make me look like I hit the wall. I would love some help!!
Thanks!!
Victoria
January 01, 2013 at 08:20 pm
I want to look and feel better then I currrently do. I'm approaching my mid 50sand am the grandmother of a busy lil guy. I want to be able to keep up with him to keep up with the orchard we purchased.
January 01, 2013 at 08:18 pm
Love to feel better about my body. I had a great body and it has changed so much...
January 01, 2013 at 08:17 pm
I would love to have the Menopause Makeover because after I turned 55 I cannot seem to lose weight. I have tried everything from Weight Watchers to Hypnosis, nothing has worked. This maybe the program that can work for a woman in menopause!! I would be very excited to win this!!!!
January 01, 2013 at 08:09 pm
I would love to have the menopause makeover to help me get back in shape!!
January 01, 2013 at 08:06 pm
Because I am stuck and cannot figure out why. Have been an athlete type all of my life and now I can't seem to get it together. Menopause, really? Ugh.
January 01, 2013 at 08:00 pm
I would like a menopause makeover because I'm looking rather old and believe it would help my appearance.
January 01, 2013 at 07:54 pm
That before photo could have been me
January 01, 2013 at 07:53 pm
At 58, it's high time for a makeover. Never had one & think it would be such a treat! In the past 2 years I've learned how to color my own hair & have started using eye makeup & giving myself manicures. Retired now, I have some time for 'me time' and would like to make the most of it. :)
January 01, 2013 at 07:51 pm
Actually, I really would love for my Daughter to have this makeover. End of 2011 she had a partial Hysterectomy, she had it planned 2 years prior but postponed because her grandmother had Alzheimer's and did not want me to leave taking care of my mom to help her out. She has 4 Children and totally commits herself to taking care of them ages 8,16 and 20. 8 yr old's are twin girls. My Daughter is going thru a very rough time trying to regulate her thyroid and her hormone's are totally out of whack along with going through menopause, She has gained alot of weigh which she is miserable . She is always giving to everyone else and it would be incredible for her to have this makeover and be able to give back to her. I am not a very good writer so its very difficult for me to explain how much this makeover would help her mentally and physically Thank You
January 01, 2013 at 07:49 pm
I absolutely need a Menopause Makeover. On January 31st I will open a new chapter in my life as this will be my last day to work. I will be officially retired. I look so forward to this and would love to begin this chapter of my life with a makeover.
January 01, 2013 at 07:45 pm
I have recently added new responsibilities at my job that give me more visability and travel. While not having extreme symptoms, I have noticed a loss of energy and some weight gain that is not as easy to lose as it used to be. I would love to try this to get a new regimen to look and feel better.
January 01, 2013 at 07:45 pm
I would love to get in better shape for my health and not hate to look at myself in the mirror. My daughter is getting married in this coming summer and I would love to look better for the wedding.
January 01, 2013 at 07:42 pm
I need help . I am in menopause and I could use these items.They will help me cope with the inconvenience of menopause. Make me a winner! I have polycystic Kidney disease and need a break.
January 01, 2013 at 07:41 pm
Due to my work hours it's really hard to figure out a time to exercise and since I feed my mother and son it's also hard to get them to eat properly. Too much meat, carbs and portions. While my weight has fluctuated all my life I've always been able to lose weight when I wanted and my waistline returns. Not anymore! Very hard to lose weight and too much extra gathering around the middle! Ugh!
January 01, 2013 at 07:40 pm
Because I don't want to get older, I want to get better. 49 and fabulous!
January 01, 2013 at 07:39 pm
i'm starting into perimenopause and am finding it harder and harder to lose weight. any support i could get in understanding the effects and impacts of perimenopause and menopause on my weight loss efforts would be so helpful.
January 01, 2013 at 07:26 pm
I am long past menopause at age 64, however, I would love to have help with a fitness makeover because life isn't over for me. I realized a few months ago that I had moved from middle age to old age but I have a lot to contribute still in my community. I may be a grand-mother too because our son and daughter-in-law are going to try to have a baby. I will need my energy!
Everyone wants to look good no matter what they tell you however some women have had to give up on working out for good and for bad reasons. I would like to be a radiant example to women who need a boost to kick start their exercise regimen.
Thank you for the opportunity to win this contest.
January 01, 2013 at 07:23 pm
I feel stuck in a rut,.nd a makeover would be a big boost.
January 01, 2013 at 07:18 pm
I would like a menopause makeover to help not only my appearance but also my inner self would feel better.
January 01, 2013 at 07:16 pm
You mean there really is a way to get this done. 12 weeks and summer will be here and I'd be more than ready for a new me.
January 01, 2013 at 07:14 pm
I lost forty-six pounds last year, ending up a size six for the first time in decades. I never got to the point where I could say that I was happy with my body, not being toned. Eight of those pounds have crept back on, and I want to take them off, get firm, and stay that way. It is all harder since menopause!
January 01, 2013 at 07:13 pm
Why do I want a Menopause Makeover? Why not! Iam at the age where some of these symptoms are starting to occur. I want to be ready for any more.
;)
January 01, 2013 at 07:11 pm
Help! I feel like my body hates me - I have Lupus and it makes everything crazy...
January 01, 2013 at 07:11 pm
I have been in menopause for over7 years. I do take bio I'd hormones, exercise and try to eat right but, sometimes you need a tune up
January 01, 2013 at 07:11 pm
I would love to have the menopause makeover
January 01, 2013 at 07:10 pm
Last year, at age 75 I retired so I could spend more quality time with my husband. In late July I had my yearly mammogram. A few days later I heard the dreaded "You have breast cancer." As that merry-go-round began my husband of 31 years became very seriously ill and after two months in the hospital, he died. After postponing the surgery for two and a half weeks in the beginning of his his hospitalization, I had a partial mastectomy (the surgeon found two more cancerous spots) which didn't heal well and required daily treatment for almost two months. Now, five months after diagnosis, I have just completed radiation therapy and am about to begin chemo. The drug determined to be best for me causes menopausal symptoms and is known to decrease bone density. I have gotten into a daily brisk walking routine, but that alone will not help build or maintain bone mass. I have always felt and looked much younger than my age, but being depressed and grieving hinders my commitment to myself. Another go around with menopause is not something that I anticipated during this time of my life. Perhaps the Menopause Makeover would help me as I reinvent my self one more time.

First, I am already receiving emails.....so no need to send more....
Why do I want a makeover? I am actually post-menopausal, age 65, divorced, and not happy with the results of my current efforts to firm up and lose some additional weight. I work full time in a stressful job as mental health counselor helping recovering addicts who are pregnant and parenting women living in a residential treatment center. I believe that my cortisol levels are working against me, despite the numerous nutritional supplements that I take, and my healthy food choices.
I would LOVE a personal makeover with a trainer, but am pitifully, woefully underpaid as a master's level clinician, and cannot afford such a luxury.....hence this entry....
January 01, 2013 at 07:05 pm
I would like the makeover since what I have been doing isn't working like it did before menopause...could really use the help!!
January 01, 2013 at 07:03 pm
Although I have have "health conscious" all my life, at 53 I am currently 30 lbs overweight. I have been in Peri-menopause since 47. I would love to try Menopuase Makeover because I am frustrated with all the menopuse diet advice out there including my doctor! I want to be an active grandma for my grandkids!
January 01, 2013 at 07:03 pm
I would to win this because I need a menopause makeover. I could use everything offered
January 01, 2013 at 07:03 pm
I really need this makeover. Dryness, lack of energy achie , night sweats tossing and turning no libido, had to have a total emergency hysterectomy 10 years ago, turned my whole life upside down. Would like to feel alive again!!
January 01, 2013 at 06:58 pm
MY BIRTHDAY IS COMING UP AND THIS IS WOULD BE A GIFT FO ME!
January 01, 2013 at 06:45 pm
I want to win because I've slacked off incredibly last year and want this year to be the year that I finally get back in shape. I want to look my best and also feel my best.
January 01, 2013 at 06:43 pm
I want to be ahead of the game. I want to know what to do before it hits me so I won't be playing catch up but play live a healthy life now so I can pass on the knowledge.

I am a 50 year old mother of two adoptive girls (8 yrs and 7 yrs old). My father has been diagnosed with Alzheimers. My mom who does not drive is the main caretaker however I must drive to their home (1 1/2 hours one way) to do things like grocery shopping, taking one of them to the doctor, etc.). I work at my girls' school as a teachers assistant to a class of 4-year old preschoolers. I have gained alot of weight in the last 5 years and I am always feeling tired, stressed and often have panic attacks. I also have hot flashes that will make me irratable. I just need help. Menopause has effected the way I treat my children, do my job and interact with friends and acquantences.
January 01, 2013 at 06:30 pm

January 01, 2013 at 06:28 pm
I would love to feel like my old self again and lose the extra weight I have gained. I am 52 years old and while I was starting menopause, I was also taking care of my dying Mother 24/7. With the stress of it all, I believe I've lost myself. I would love to be reinvented.
January 01, 2013 at 06:19 pm
I have struggled since hitting about 42 to keep off any weight I drop. I am now 52, and it would be great to find the answers.
January 01, 2013 at 06:16 pm
I'd love a menopause makeover due to the fact that I have no idea how to handle what is going on with my body. I had to have a surgical hysterectomy in July due to a tumor and since then I had gained about 20 or so pounds and am in the process of losing it. It is quite an adjustment both mentally and physically to have this at age 43. I had a partial hysterectomy at age 30 but they left me with my ovaries so I was ok with it at that point. My mother had passed away when I was 30 also so I really don't have anyone to talk to about what my body is going through and of course out of all my friends I'm the one that gets to experience this first.
It would just be a nice treat to have some help/support to get through all these changes.
Thanks for the opportunity to sign up for this contest!! :)
January 01, 2013 at 06:15 pm
I'd love a makeover--it's always possible to look better than before! What a boost it would be for a new year!!
January 01, 2013 at 06:14 pm
It would be wonderful to have an opportunity to get back to my "old self" before menapause! I just turned 58, but have a 10-year younger boyfriend that is happy with me now-but would be even happier to see me new and improved!
January 01, 2013 at 06:14 pm
because i have been stuck in menopause hell.
January 01, 2013 at 06:11 pm
i need this sort of help!! please choose me for a make over! thank you so much for a chance to win..
January 01, 2013 at 06:08 pm
At 54, I am also in a menopause nightmare. Sleep is interrupted by night sweats and hot flashes every night, so I have been unable to get a full night's sleep for almost a year now. Over the counter supplements have not helped. I am desperate to lose weight (I am hovering at 200 lbs on my 5'-3" frame), and nothing I have tried so far has worked to help me take the weiught off. I find my movement restricted, and worry that I will never be able to make the changes I need without focused help from a professional. I would love to be your student and receive the menopause makeover. It's time for me to take control of my body again, and sincerely need and want your help.
January 01, 2013 at 06:02 pm
I would love a menopause makeover because my outside doesn't quite match my inside! I feel younger and more vital than I look. And, I'd like to continue to grow and improve.
January 01, 2013 at 06:00 pm
I would love a Menopause Makeover because i don't feel right in my own skin and i'd like to learn how to deal with my "new" body. Things have changed quite a bit and i'm overwhelmed. I don't look at all like i used to and the weight gain is becoming impossible to deal with. I'm currently trying to "balance" my hormones. I hope i'm on the right track. Now i need to learn how to be a beautiful older woman. I want to ditch the girl i used to be and blossom into the woman i want to be. Gosh wouldn't it be wonderful if i learned how to turn this into a positive and could show others too!
Thanks for your consideration and thank you for offering this makeover to us.
Sincerely,
Jayne Barry
January 01, 2013 at 05:59 pm
I have to admit this is something I have been unable to do alone. I could use the advice,and support.
January 01, 2013 at 05:57 pm
I too went into menopause at 47 and now at 51 in few months my oldest daughter will be getting married. I want to look and feel good not like I am 60 year old. I feel young in heart and mind but my body not so much.
Thanks Neysa Tiger
January 01, 2013 at 05:56 pm
I quit smoking while going through menopause. I am now heavier than I was when I was pregnant with my son. It is beyond my ability to figure out how to lose weight. Please help!
January 01, 2013 at 05:52 pm
I will be turning 50 in 2013 and I want to feel my best again.
January 01, 2013 at 05:52 pm
Need help and motivation
January 01, 2013 at 05:50 pm
I want to feel good again, its been a long time since I have. I thought that once I reached this age I would feel better both physically and mentally. It has not been that way at all. I am tired of being sad, fat and tired all the time.
January 01, 2013 at 05:46 pm
I'm 54 and single again but feel as though I just need some help to get in shape and get the weight off. Menopause is here and I'm sure that hasnt helped matters. Who knows, I may meet Mr. Right after the make over!!!!
January 01, 2013 at 05:35 pm
After being diagnosed with some new health issues two years ago, new medications combined with reduced physical activity, has resulted in a 30 pound weight gain that I have been unable to lose. Every time I get back on my feet, another set of symptoms and/or diagnosis knocks me back down again. For two years after menopause, I was still rocking a bikini. Despite a diagnosis of fibromyalgia, valvular heart disease and osteopenia when I was in my late 30's, I stayed in shape simply by running my household, walking and gardening. The extra weight is dragging me down, putting a greater strain on my heart and increasing the fatigue associated with fibromyalgia. A menopause make-over is just what the doctor ordered, literally!
January 01, 2013 at 05:34 pm
I went into meopause right after I had to have an emergency hysterectomy after my son was born. I was 41 at the time. Then within the next two years my thyroid went out of whack! So not only have I been going through the menopause of dryness, mood swings, weight gain and just all the things that "menopause" has going with it! I had to do a duplicate with an under active thryoid..so it would be such a WONDERFUL feeling to know that maybe I could get my life back the way it used to be OR at least tolerable so my husband and children like me again! We have 4 children and 5 grandchildren. Just knowing that I could do something about how I feel about myself, my mood swings, the hair issues, and oh let's don't forget the dryness area that goes along with this WOW! Do I need a makeover!? YES!!!! I really don't want to just grow old...I want to grow old gracefully or just not think about growing old. So this would be a blessing for me!!!
January 01, 2013 at 05:26 pm
I have tried very hard to maintain my self image as well as my body for 66 years old. I know with the additional PROPER help I could be the person I want and need to be,. I have a new man in my life and I wish to get married in 3 months and this would be perfect.
Please help me as that is a dream come true for me
Thank you

I want a Menopause Makeover because I have so much life to live and I am worthy of feeling and looking better. I just need support and direction.I would take what I have learned and experienced and pay it forward encouraging other women who feel and look better.

January 01, 2013 at 05:25 pm
Just turned 50 I have gained 25 lbs in the last 3 years. Night sweats and hot flashes are driving me nuts. Just moved to a new house new town and everything is so new. I need to get back in shape,I am going back into the work force after almost a year off tending to my father in law until his death in May.
I would love to have a make over!
January 01, 2013 at 05:24 pm
After being on the BCP since age 16, my doctor took me off the pill. At age 52, I just started gaining weight. Exercise and changing eating habits has helped me drop that 15, but I just can't seem to get my weight down. I don't have too much trouble with sleep or hot flashes anymore, only once in a while. I am very motivated by the determination and research that Staness has achieved. I would love her help because this seems to be the most frustrating thing I have ever dealt with in my life. I feel out of control.
January 01, 2013 at 05:22 pm
I would want a Menopause Makeover because I am going thru menopause right now.
January 01, 2013 at 05:21 pm
Seems like every since I hit menopause I have had depression, weight gain, and I just don't feel that great about myself anymore.
January 01, 2013 at 05:21 pm
I would like to look as hot as I feel during a flash, or as I call them, a power surge.
January 01, 2013 at 05:19 pm
I want the Menopause makeover so I could use the knowledge I gain to help myself and others. I'm also attending a wedding in NY in 6 weeks. I was told that if I lost just 20 pounds, I would have less joint issues and may even "cure" my pre-diabetic diagnosis. I meet so many people at the gym, doctor's offices that are in the same boat: menopausal, overweight and have medical problems that result from these conditions and getting no relief for all the medicines they are on. Imagine if I could do it and then encourage others to help themselves! I'm also tired of the brain fog, the night sweats, the moodiness that is impacting my closest relationships and also being the heaviest in my family. Even my mother-in-law is a size 2! Help!.
January 01, 2013 at 05:18 pm
Duh! As we age we can all use a makeover! I am no different! I would love to have a menopause makeover to help me through this time of my life. Thanks!
January 01, 2013 at 05:17 pm
I feel too young to look old but when I look in the mirror, I realize I've become my paunch bellied mother. The toned, thin me of pre-menopause days is dying to come out.. but I need your assistance.
January 01, 2013 at 05:10 pm
I'm 48 and I've never felt so drab, sluggish and just plain BLAH in my life. Help!
January 01, 2013 at 05:10 pm
Maily to get rid of the pounds I've added to my frame since menopause began.
January 01, 2013 at 05:03 pm
Why wouldn't someone want a menopause makeover?! All of the items and experiences sound great.
January 01, 2013 at 04:59 pm
I am 47 while taking care of my mother trying to keep hateful siblings from harming me and her my period left. On top of that I believe one of my haters sent this email. The pressure I am under from the government conspiring with corrupt clergy and cops because I am outspoken. My siblings thought I would be dead now. My heart goes out to my mother. She passed out from the constant arguing. I love her. My retired cop sister has convinced people I am badgering her. I deserve this makeover if it is legitimate. I was drugged and violated in my own home. My rich bishop's pastor is T.D. Jakes he groomes men convicts to disrespect woment. My privacy has been portrayed as negative and inappropriate for standing up for myself. T.D. Jakes conspired with Oprah. My relatives always sabatoge my reputation. Pray for my mama.
January 01, 2013 at 04:59 pm
I'm tired of night sweats, the added tummy weight and the sagging skin
January 01, 2013 at 04:55 pm
I really could use one since I've been in menopause for 10yr (medical) and am taking care of my terminally ill younger brother, my twin adopted son's with emotional and physical issues, plus trying to work full time. I deal with menopause but never have time to pamper myself, so this would be a wonderful gift!
January 01, 2013 at 04:48 pm
I really feel like I have done it all to try and get back into my "old shape" again and have hit a brick wall.Would love your help.I want to look like the girl in your ad!I'm 54 and I have never been 20 pounds over weight before.
Help!

I am through menopause (hysterectomy-induced) and have watched my body "disintegrate" before my very eyes. I haven't been able to come up with any plan/system/workout/whatever that will get my body back into shape.
January 01, 2013 at 04:42 pm
because I'm old and fat and can't stand it anymore!
January 01, 2013 at 04:41 pm
Currently, I resemble the before picture, however, I would like to resemble the after picture.
January 01, 2013 at 04:41 pm
I am so tired of feeling like this. I have 10 or more hot flashes every night. I go to sleep but am awaken by hot flashes every hour to hour and a half. I am exhausted all day. My boyfriend doesn't understand at all. He thinks I can keep working at construction like I did before. I am unstable on ladders now and am afraid of falling. I just can't keep going like this. If any thing can help me I would be willing to try it. Thanks!
January 01, 2013 at 04:40 pm
Since menopause I've gained an average of 2 pounds a year. Help!
January 01, 2013 at 04:33 pm
More than one doctor has told me that I've been peri-menopausal since I had a child when I was 35. I am now 46 and while I've been able to keep some of the side effects at bay, I have been trying different "remedies" for the last 10 years. It seems like I am never getting to the point where things are "great". I'd love to have some help from Staness.
January 01, 2013 at 04:30 pm
I'm 58 years old and seriously in need of an update, a makeover, a re-invention of my true self. Somewhere between my demanding career and my empty nest I've lost touch with ME. I look and feel much older than I am. I'm ready for 2013 to be my "phoenix" year. Help me please!!!!
January 01, 2013 at 04:30 pm
I've been having trouble losing weight and I think premenopause might be the reason. I'd like to tackle it head-on!
January 01, 2013 at 04:23 pm
I'm having trouble losing 20 pounds and it's getting harder at menopause. I need the encouragement.

i would love a menopause makeover to start feeling more comfortable in this body which seems to be fighting against me.
January 01, 2013 at 04:17 pm
It is time for me to address the changes I have been experiencing for the past several years and to get more energy and a new lease on life!
January 01, 2013 at 04:15 pm
I want a Menopause Makeover to keep myself "relevant" in a society that doesn't make accomodation for aging.
January 01, 2013 at 04:14 pm
I am 54 years old and in fantastic shape due to a healthy diet and a daily workouts. My problem is that I have not had a full night sleep in over four months because of night sweats or my body just wakes up after 3-4 hours. As a result, my eyes are dark and puffy all of the time. I use to not wear a stitch of makeup. Now I rely on eye concealer even when working out. I avoid looking at myself in the mirror as much as possible. Menopuase has made me completely miserable although I have tried to come to terms with it. All I wanted for Christmas was a good night sleep and less puffiness around the eyes. Well, that Christmas gift never arrived so I am hoping that 2013 will help me find a remedy. I miss feeling good about myself. This is the most difficult challenge that I have encountered in my lifetime. A Menopause Makeover would be a dream come true!
January 01, 2013 at 04:13 pm
After I hit menopause my weight increased quite a bit and I need help reclaiming myself!
January 01, 2013 at 04:09 pm
Since the 9th Feb 2000 age 42 i was in an accident, i'm in lot of pain i could hardly move....gain lots of pounds (so many medication to take with all of the side effects) and then the menopause came...that did not help me either that led me into a more serious state of mind.... but i still hoped.....
Finally....Jan 1st, 2013, I'm fortunate to say the pain is less painfull, but with age my body took a rough hit...I lost a few pounds.......I know that my battle to have a nicer body is still there....but i still hope.....I'm getting there but slowly....This Menopause Makeover would encourage me to continue......Gee...this would be a big boost for me.....
I hope to win this prize for my physical and emotional new me.......Lyse

I would love a menopause makeover because I have started dieting and exercising again. I have lost 17 lbs. so far and started exercising again. Starting to feel like my old self again. I am 51 almost 52 and its so much harder to lose the weight.
January 01, 2013 at 03:54 pm
My son is getting married on June 1st and the wedding will be held at his father's home in NC. I would love to look my best.
I have already started riding my mountain bike 2 or 3 times a week and cutting out sugar and gluten, but I started a new job a few weeks ago and between the stresses of a new job and the holidays....I need guidance and support!
Winning this would be a huge gift; to be healthy and looking fabulous for my son's wedding.

My 2013 resolution is to stay healthy and this would really help me.
January 01, 2013 at 03:52 pm
I need a Menopause Makeover because everything in my life has turned upside down since menopause. I woke up one day and realized I was a big mess - fat, fifty and not fabulous. I've been working towards my goal of weight loss (40 lbs and need to lose more), getting in shape (water aerobics and weight training 3x weekly), and superficially, changing the way I look by facials and younger looking hair.
I want it because I have worked so hard and would love help to reach my goal of a fabulous me.
January 01, 2013 at 03:51 pm
Ever since going through Perimenopause & passing the "50" milestone, I just feel stagnant & uninspired...I feel like I need a new beginning for the second chapter of my life.
January 01, 2013 at 03:47 pm
Oh, boy, do I need this! Since going through menopause four years ago at the age of 46, I don't even recognize myself. I feel like I am still myself on the inside, but the outside just doesn't match and I miss the energy and vitality that I had pre-menopause. I'd like to feel better about myself and embrace this new phase of my life. Not try to recapture my old self, but become a new, better, healthier me. I want to prove that menopause doesn't have to mean frumpy, lumpy, and bumpy! This menopause makeover would be a dream come true!
January 01, 2013 at 03:43 pm
Id like to lose weight and learn to avoid those sugar binges
January 01, 2013 at 03:38 pm
I'm in the most vibrant time of my life! A successful career, a wonderful marriage of over 31 years, two beautiful, successful young adult daughters--the oldest getting married in 2013. My wish is to achieve a healthy lifestyle, lose weight to prevent long term health diseases and enjoy every minute of the life. I would welcome the opportunity and challenge to achieve this through expert Staness Jonekos. Thank you for considering my entry.

Thanks anna

I desperately need a makeover. After spending the last three months taking care of my husband after surgery for a brain tumor, things have finally settled down. I just need to regroup and start taking care of myself so that I can be a healthier wife and mother.
January 01, 2013 at 03:28 pm
I feel my life is somewhat out of control right now. This last year has been very stressful due to family relationship issues and a chronic health issue that I'm dealing with. I would like to participate in the Menopause Makeover to help me deal with the stress in my life and some of my health issues.

I'd like a makeover so that how I look like on the outside would more closely match the good woman I feel like on the inside. Happy New Year 2013!
January 01, 2013 at 03:21 pm
Menopause has definitely taken it's toll. I am now 54 and have been going through it for at least the past 4 years (I have kind of lost track of when it actually started!) I never had a problem with weight gain before, even despite my lack of exercising. I pretty much maintained an even weight. Since menopause set in, I have gained about 35 pounds, mostly in my tummy and thighs. It has made me very self-conscious. I feel as if I am constantly buying new clothes to fit my ever-expanding body. I used to be a consistent size 4 and now I am an 8. Not happy about that! Too much weight for my 5 foot 2 inch frame. I think this makeover would be perfect for me because I want and need some changes, but don't know where or how to start. It would make 2013 the best year I've had in a while!
January 01, 2013 at 03:19 pm
I want a Menopause Makeover, because my menopause is just starting, and I want to come out the other side feeling even better than I did going in!
January 01, 2013 at 03:17 pm
Well! It could not be more perfect timing--in 2012 I managed to lose 25 pounds, but the last stubborn ten isn't budging. In addition, those stubborn ten are all BELLY FAT!! I want a waist again!
January 01, 2013 at 03:13 pm
I hate to attempt this, but menopause has brought me to my knees. My hair has changed,my skin has changed and my body has changed.. It has been so many different issues that I find it overwhelming.. But I'm up for the challenge...Not quite ready to lay down and give up
January 01, 2013 at 03:12 pm
Because my primary doc, although female, thinks the answer to everything is pharmaceutical.
January 01, 2013 at 03:12 pm
Just what I need!!!!!
January 01, 2013 at 03:11 pm
I have been raising children since I was 19 and have lost complete sight of myself as an individual. I'm 54 and have never made time to shine. I need help to find that last sparkle so I can live out my life as a woman!
January 01, 2013 at 03:10 pm
I want to enjoy this phase of my life
January 01, 2013 at 03:08 pm
I want my life to get BETTER and BETTER , not come to a full halt just because I'm entering into a different phase if my life . I want to be , feel , and look even more beautiful than ever .i want to be sexy and loving , to my amazing husband . I want to be vital and present for my kids .
I want to have the energy to sustain my business and friends .
This program is for ME!!! I want everything and more that it has to offer . I am a disciplined and very tenacious person and look forward to this NEW Years challenge to enter the BEST time of my life , looking and feeling my best.
January 01, 2013 at 03:07 pm
I am so tired of looking and feeling like something the cat dragged in. This makeover is the perfect thing to get me motivated and to help me feel I am worth it!
January 01, 2013 at 03:06 pm
I'm not getting where I want on my own (despite regular workouts) and know I need expert help. It would be a real treat to work with someone like Staness!

Well . . . when the old barn needs paint . . .paint it!!! Now at age 57, the changes in my body since menopause have been subtle and steady . . . and I feel like I am losing the fight. I could use some help with this "old barn" to keep it as fit and healthy as possible.
January 01, 2013 at 03:05 pm
I am ready to take control of my life and my menopause issues.
January 01, 2013 at 03:03 pm
I have been trying to stay on top of things, by working out and eating fairly healthy, but I still notice weight creeping up around the middle. I could use some motivation to get me thru the next year.
January 01, 2013 at 03:03 pm
Menopause has set in HARD...help! The weight gain is the worst, well maybe its the dive in libido that's the worst! lol
January 01, 2013 at 02:54 pm
I'd like to feel the best ever!
January 01, 2013 at 02:52 pm
I am 54 and have had two life threatening illnesses in the last ten years, one of which required a complete hysterectomy to cure. Since then life has been a series of hormone treatments and up and down weight, mood and basic disruption of everyday life. I need to learn how to control my health - mind, body and spirit and make peace with this stage of life. I believe this makeover would go a long way to helping me get some of my life and health back.
January 01, 2013 at 02:50 pm
I want the Menopause Makeover because Menopause is an ongoing challenge to not gain weight and to not sweat while delivering a speech or at an important meeting. No matter what I do I seem to swing suddenly into overweight if I just look at food I used to eat. Suddenly I now have goodbye muscles on my arms and stomach/abdomen that are harder to hide than the curves I had previously complained about--a 36C bosom and 38 inch hips are easier to fit into clothing than a big belly and fat arms! And last night I had to change nightgown 3 times! ICKY! HELP please!
January 01, 2013 at 02:49 pm
So that I can feel and look like a better me. I love the old me I just want me to be tweeked a bit!
January 01, 2013 at 02:48 pm
I usually use exercise to manage my menopause symptoms but a series of illnesses and injuries have made it difficult to work out which has caused my menopause symptoms SOAR! What should I do about it until I'm healthy again?
January 01, 2013 at 02:47 pm
I feel i could use a makeover becauseIi want change in my life, but am a bit scared to get too radical and be sorry, but secretly would love to be radical.
I have taken pretty good care of myself, I think because I do consider myself hip. I try to keep my hair and body pretty decent, but could use a professional to help.
January 01, 2013 at 02:46 pm
As I've aged, I've definitely gone appleshaped. I've still got things to do at 51 that the extra weight around my middle is making difficult.
January 01, 2013 at 02:45 pm
Who wouldn't want to be in that great shape - at any age! A personal trainer who knows the ropes would make getting in shape so much easier!
January 01, 2013 at 02:43 pm
I've been struggling with perimenopausal symptoms for years and would love some help!
January 01, 2013 at 02:41 pm
My body is going through so many changes that I don't feel like I know it any more. After 40+ years of doing things a certain way and knowing what works has all of a sudden been thrown out the window. What use to work, look good, and felt good, doesn't any more. A menopause makeover, will be a new start into a new life style with my new body. It will introduce us and give us a start on a new lifestyle, calm some things down, and bring balance.
January 01, 2013 at 02:39 pm
2013 is my year of success! My life is in a state of change. I am a busy little caterpillar finding the nourishment that will allow me transform into the beautiful, bright and shimmery butterfly that we are all capable of becoming in every area of life. 2013 is the year I grow successfully. In all areas of life. 2013 is also the year I encourage and help others transform into their own beautiful, bright and shimmery butterfly in the colorful garden of life :-D
January 01, 2013 at 02:38 pm
It would be fabulous to learn how to get rid of the thickness through my core that wasn't there before. Nothing I have done so far seems to help. I would love to be in the best shape of my life for the rest of my life.
January 01, 2013 at 02:38 pm
I would like a Menopause Makeover, because I have recently written a book about Pausing With God , A Journey Through Menopause and would like to enter and finish 2013 .....made over...
January 01, 2013 at 02:37 pm
I have been wrestling with my weight and health for years and I am so ready to win the battle. I go up and down and up and down, but never achieve complete victory. This year I turn 60...I would love and welcome the assistance to declare the battle WON!
January 01, 2013 at 02:36 pm
I went into Perimenopause at the age of 38, at the same time developing Graves Disease. I have had years of treatments for the Graves, which was an abnormal case of it, 5 eye surgeries in recent years, and all the way having weight gain. I was in the 120's in my 20's, the 130's in my 30's, 140s in my 40's and now I find myself at 153 lbs at 57 years old. I would like for this to be the year that I put the last 20 years behind me and to come through healthier and in better shape. I joined my local Gym the week of Christmas to get prepared for the change in my life. This would compliment my plans and goals perfectly!
January 01, 2013 at 02:33 pm
I have had some health issues and have been on medication. Would love to lose weight and start the new year right!
January 01, 2013 at 02:32 pm
Awesome!
January 01, 2013 at 02:31 pm
I need to get my body back in order. I suffer from servere baack issues. That have gottem worse since I've gotten older. Maintaining my weight us the only thing that helps, and now along comes that damn menopause. To make things harder. I need this because if I don't maintain my weight, even a little bit extra I Can Not Walk!. This may not be the sysmptoms most women complain about with menopause but, I didn't get hot flashes. I got servere mood swings (like pms from my 20's), crazy hair and, a hard time with my weight. I want my 7 inch heels back, I want to be able to stand and walk without pain again. The last time I had to lose 35lbs, and I was fine for 3 years. Until I fell and was unable to really move for a year and a half and my weight began to creep. I gained back 12lbs, I need o lose a total of 25lbs to function. HELP ME!!!
January 01, 2013 at 02:31 pm
While never achieving fashionista status prior to menopause I have now entered frumpy status. Help me please.
January 01, 2013 at 02:30 pm
I am 55 and very active but it takes everything to keep fit. I have heart disease in my family and must stay active and eat healthy to ward off the Genes that I have inherated. My husband also walks, runs, and goes to the gym with me. We make it a family "thing" to stay active. We have also ran many 5 K's the past 3 years. Please pick me as the Menopuase Makeover to help me stay focused and stay strong!
January 01, 2013 at 02:29 pm
This I could really use. I've been in menopause since I was 24 so the damages are quite evident. Her help would be priceless
January 01, 2013 at 02:28 pm
Since menopause, my metabolism seems to have slowed to a crawl. Some coaching to get me back into shape would be wonderful.
January 01, 2013 at 02:26 pm
Having been slender most of my life, the menopause bulk has been very disheartening.
January 01, 2013 at 02:25 pm
oh wow! this would be such a life changer for me.
thank you.
happy new year!
January 01, 2013 at 02:24 pm
I need a true makeover as menopause has made my weight out of control! My husband won't diet with me so I truly need you as a friend to support me thru my struggles. I feel horrible emotionally and physically. Please help!
January 01, 2013 at 02:23 pm
I am now in my late 50's and would love to look and feel better well into my 80's. I dont feel my best right now and would love a make over in my brain and body.. here is hoping,, thanks much
January 01, 2013 at 02:22 pm
It's a new phase and I need HELP to understand the changes I am and have been going through to really be FOF!!
January 01, 2013 at 02:22 pm
Becuase this old body needs to feel and look young again
January 01, 2013 at 02:21 pm
I truly need this!
January 01, 2013 at 02:21 pm
Unhappy with my weight, mood and insomnia, I am desperate for help!!!
January 01, 2013 at 02:19 pm
I would like a makeover because I am too young to feel this old!
January 01, 2013 at 02:15 pm
For a couple of years now I've been battling the bloat and weight gain. I work out, but I seem to crave the wrong foods and portion control is a very hard goal for me.
My goal in 2013 is to tone the fat on my body and face. Even though I'm 61 I want to keep looking attractive to my husband and to myself.
With some good coaching I do believe I can accomplish my goals this year.
January 01, 2013 at 02:15 pm
I made it through the illness and death my mother, divorce ending a 30-year marriage, and being sole caregiver for my 96-year-old father. I've had no time for myself in a long time, and need makeover help in a big way!
January 01, 2013 at 02:14 pm
I am a single 53 year old woman who is looking to start the next phase of her life. I want to look and feel great and need help getting there.
A personalized program best suited for me/my body would get me off in the right direction.
January 01, 2013 at 02:13 pm
I have always been in great shape and suddenly when I hit my 50's the game changed. I didn't have the control I used to have over my body. I ate the same, worked out the same and still I am losing the battle. I never dreamed this could be…this book and opportunity would be a great start to 2013!
January 01, 2013 at 02:11 pm
Are you serious? Time to stop the steady decline and get ready for a long and healthy second act!
January 01, 2013 at 02:11 pm
I would love a menopause makeover because I desperately need one. I am a single mother of 3 boys, I raised them on my own for years, and now that they are older and I have time for me I feel very defeated. I had a full hysterectomy 2 years ago, I have suffered severe mood swings, weight gain, etc. so I would love to get a makeover and start to get back into life and maybe even dating.
January 01, 2013 at 02:09 pm
Because I am seeing so many changes to my body and not sure what to do about some of them so I could really use some help. HELP!
January 01, 2013 at 02:08 pm
Well, it's that time for me. Yep- you can run but can't hide. MOTHER nature does her thing. Thank you for the offer- would love to win!
January 01, 2013 at 02:04 pm
Really need some help to get back into shape while going through this menopause...real monkey on my back!
January 01, 2013 at 02:04 pm
Four years ago, when I was 46, my husband and I had to downsize because of the econmy. Nine months later, I was diagnosed with breast cancer and two days after that, my 14 year-old daughter was diagnosed with a chronic health condition. After a year of chemo, radiation, and Herception injections, I lost twenty five pounds as well as every speck of hair on my body and was slammed into instant menopause. I am now in remission as is my daughter, but my formerly lithe body is slack and I want to get back to the me I used to be....Hope I win.
January 01, 2013 at 02:04 pm
She looks lovely! It certainly is nice to dream. I have not won anything since I was 15 and won aclock radio for a quarter. And yes , I still have it!
January 01, 2013 at 02:04 pm
I am 52 and just going into menopause. I have to have a hysterectomy this summer to remove fibroids, but I am trying to lose some weight before that. I currently weigh 175 lbs and began working out 3-4 times a week a few weeks ago. I just completed my MBA and getting in shape is my next goal. I could really use some guidance since I've never really done much dieting. I'm 5'5" and work in as an Administrative Assistant at a university. So, I have access to lots of workout equipment, but have no idea where to begin. I've been going to Zumba for a few weeks now and plan on continuing. Pleas help me realize my goal of losing weight and getting in shape.
January 01, 2013 at 02:03 pm
I have also gained weight since menopause and would like to look like the picture
January 01, 2013 at 02:01 pm
Still fighting to lose extra weight.
January 01, 2013 at 02:00 pm
More and more every day, I am looking like the grandma that you used to see in the movies - short, chunky, grey, and always happy. I don't want to be that anymore. I have been thru some really rough times in the last fifteen years, and I look like it. My life is so good now, and I would like my appearance to match how I feel and act. I am reliving parts of my life that were not good, and I want to be the whole package. I don't seem to have the drive to do it alone, and cant afford a private trainer. This would be the icing on the cake. I want to relearn how to be healthy, happy, and hot!!! Please help me!!!
January 01, 2013 at 02:00 pm
I went into early menopause in my 40s and damn if all these years later I'm still not suffering from some of the side effects. ENOUGH ALREADY! I could so use your help.
January 01, 2013 at 01:58 pm
I have "love handles" and a belly bulge, my skin is sagging everywhere, and I am not happy! I used to be a workout junkie, but now I am a couch potato! I need help!
January 01, 2013 at 01:58 pm
I have been struggling with the effects of menopause for the last five years, I have watched my weight rise, my hair thin, my skin loosen in places I never thought would begin to sag.....
this has effected my self esteem. This makeover would give me insight and tools to make this next stage of my life more enriched. I would love to pass on any tips to my friends that are also feeling the encroachment of age.
I want to feel proud of myself and get that sexy feeling again.
I would love to win this menopause makeover! Thank you for offering it.
January 01, 2013 at 01:57 pm
My body and mind has been changed for the worse with menopause. A fresh start for change and rejuvenation will be kicked into action with the Menopause Makeover.
January 01, 2013 at 01:57 pm
Although I can't blame menopause for everything, the fact that I can starve myself for days to lose a pound and a half, but gain three pounds by just looking at a piece of bread does seem to be directly related. The tiredness, and dryness in all kinds of places is another issue. I want to embrace this new chapter of my life, not let "the pause" drive me to a standstill!
January 01, 2013 at 01:57 pm
I want a menopause makeover so that I can get reacquainted with the stranger that I've become to myself!
I don't know how to dress myself anymore because I've never been this shape efore. My moods affect my willpower and determination daily.
I want to be me again!
January 01, 2013 at 01:57 pm
I would love a menopause makeover because my body is different than it was 5 years ago. Five years ago I had a small bowel transplant and after getting back to my normal weight I gained 85 pounds due to 150 miligrams of steriods and other medications. I carried this weight around for 2 years and when the steroid amount was lowered I gradually began losing weight. I did this with sensible eating habits and exercise. I lost 65 pounds and now have to undergo a knee replacement which is inhibiting me from working out. I do follow a healthy eating regimen. I would like my old body back or as close to eat as possible. I am 60 years old but my mind is still 40. Please pick me. This would be a life changing experience.
January 01, 2013 at 01:56 pm
Because menopause is reeking havoc with my life. Hot/cold, happy/sad, water weight, etc. It makes me look 10 years older than I am. Plus, inside I still feel 30! I'd like to look like how I feel inside!
January 01, 2013 at 01:56 pm
I want to really look fabulous. I hate that menopause has taken a toll on my life.
January 01, 2013 at 01:55 pm
I've been working really hard at losing the extra weight and getting into the best shape of my life. And this year, I resolve to be even more committed to this goal. I would love to have the extra support and coaching to keep me focused!
January 01, 2013 at 01:54 pm
Menopause has totally screwed up my hormones and I am unable (no matter what exercise/lifestyle changes I make) to keep off 5-10 lbs and get back in shape. Help!
January 01, 2013 at 01:53 pm
Life is good despite my "private summers" but I could definitely use some motivation and insight to this stage of my life.
January 01, 2013 at 01:53 pm
I gained weight and really want to look better in the new year.
January 01, 2013 at 01:51 pm
To have my body and soul feel free again!
January 01, 2013 at 01:50 pm
I'm late (56) coming into menopause and am still not all the way there yet. But I can see and feel my body changing and I am so unsure of what to do to counteract some of the changes. Everything that I have learned so far is not working and I am getting soooooooooo frustrated with all of this. I am an active pre-school teacher/grandma/wife and I want to be able to get myself back to feeling good.
January 01, 2013 at 01:50 pm
I am actually out of menopuase, but its effects on my weight and overall looks have lasted. I have been unable to find the right "solutions" to getting back my shape and how to look my best now.
January 01, 2013 at 01:49 pm
I want to win this Menopause Makeover for my mom.She would get such a tremendous amount of joy and freedom from all of theses things in your contest.Thank You
January 01, 2013 at 01:46 pm
Long work hours, poor diet and lack of exercise have left me overweight and looking and acting far older than my years. I want to be 50+ and fabulous!
January 01, 2013 at 01:46 pm
The big M has taken its toll on my body, hair and skin. Would love to win!
January 01, 2013 at 01:46 pm
I have been through a great deal. I am strong and resliant nomatter what life throws at me. However my body shows and heart aches and challenges I want to feel and look more like what is in the inside not the outside. My Hormones are playing havic with me. This would be a great gift to get.
January 01, 2013 at 01:45 pm
need to get in post menopause shape!
January 01, 2013 at 01:44 pm
I would like this makeover because I am 54 and a teacher. I feel sluggish all the time and not in the shape I'd like to be in. Getting to the gym is always challenging and I'm usually tired from being with first graders each day! I know these sound like excuses but its my reality!
January 01, 2013 at 01:44 pm
The hot flashes, weight gain and mood swings started about 4 or 5 years ago, and I've been trying to cope on my own. Lost my mom to breast cancer 14 years ago, so I don't have her to turn to. I am now 48, and wondering how long, how more sever and what's next!! New year, new outlook, and hopefully a new start on this stage in life!!
January 01, 2013 at 01:44 pm
I want a menopause makeover because I have a business in the fashion industry, and feeling healthier will make me more confident and improve my appearance and credibility.
January 01, 2013 at 01:44 pm
Over the last year or more I have gain over 25 pounds. I started at the gym today! I need to eat better and exercise more. I could really use your help with this makeover. I'm running out of clothes to wear!I visit with my 91 year old mom just about every night and then come home and eat late. So the food just sits there....Need you :)
January 01, 2013 at 01:44 pm
I just turned 49 (Dec 22). I want to take better care of myself, I have gained some weight, I have hot flashes and my body is constantly overheating, I'm tired alot. I'm stressed often, Since the age of 18. I have worked full time as a secretary and still work while raising 3 boys. Our middle son had a bad accident at age of 5, he was runned over by a tractor lawnmower after 5 months in the hospital, we finally came home with intraveinous treatment. he has short gut syndrome. Our kids are all grown up, but now my parents need me, and I want and nee to be there for them but for that, I need to be healthier, eat better and exercise more. I think this is the time to take care of me. This is a gift I would really like to give myself. A menopause makeover for me would give me guidance that I need to achieve it, I want to do it for my 50th, for my kids, for my parents, eventually for my grand-kids but most of all for me. Thanks Carole
January 01, 2013 at 01:44 pm
I am 66 & want to look as fabulous as I possibly can!
January 01, 2013 at 01:43 pm
I'm on a personal mission to reduce weight and increase health and flexibility. It's hard right now - I'm dealing with what seems to be the start of menopause. I had no period for 2 months and then - wham! Guess what the New Year brought? Holiday weight increase makes getting back into my fitness (low impact!) routine feel like it's going to be harder to get back on the wagon. I need motivation and encouragement!
January 01, 2013 at 01:42 pm
I am now 46 and went into early menopause (Premature ovarian failure) at the age of 32. The creeping weight gain and all of the other fun stuff that comes with menopause has been a long time coming. I now weight a good 25-30 lbs. more than when I got married at age 29. I feel lazy, fat, sloppy and tired. I used to feel so confident in my body. Not anymore :(. I know that I have it in me to do something about this, but I'm stuck and don't know how to get out of it. I would love to win this contest and get my self back on the right path physically, mentally and emotionally.
January 01, 2013 at 01:41 pm
I am finally losing weight, and now I am rethinking my style and habits for peak energy and beauty. This sounds upbeat and helpful!
January 01, 2013 at 01:39 pm
Turning 60 this year! Enough said.
January 01, 2013 at 01:38 pm
I can't shed these llb's despite all the excersize i do.
I eat a very lean diet, swim a little do my crunches
&, do leg lifts & nothing seems' to work. I need help!!!!!!!!
January 01, 2013 at 01:38 pm
4 months ago, I had a very large tumor removed from my colon. I was very blessed that it was not cancer. However, it woke me up and made me realize that 51 I have a new lease on life. I've actually gone through menopause twice (surgically and at age 50) and had kind of given up on myself. I want to enjoy the rest of my remaining years. The means losing weight, getting better sleep and being more active! And not acting my age.
January 01, 2013 at 01:37 pm
I am 66 years old and have put on about 50 pounds the last year and a half. I don't eat much and cannot get the weight off, no matter what I try. I have a 16 month old grandbaby, my son's first, that I want to see grow up, and be able to do things with her.
January 01, 2013 at 01:37 pm
I am 55 yrs old and used to be in awesome shape and feel great! Due to an injury and menopause together, I am now heavier and flabbier than I have ever been before. I get depressed and that leads to not wanting to go to the gym. I feel as though my menopausal symptoms-hot flashes, night-sweats, etc. have intensified with my inactivity. Everything about my looks just makes me sad...dry skin, lack of sleep, weight gain...you name it. Help!!!
January 01, 2013 at 01:36 pm
Morning, well I am not over fifty on my way to 45, been in menpause over 5 years.....I have been going all natural as much as I can..no meds...I would love help with some kind of make over...I have tried on my own. But help would be wonderful..I have let my eating go and same with working out...need some encouragemeant...thank you
January 01, 2013 at 01:36 pm
I'm 50 this year and over the last couple of years I have been steadily putting on weight and spreading. I want to look good for me!! The happy by product of looking good for me is I'll look good for my husband...
I walk 4 - 5 times a week and cover 16 to 20 miles a week with my husband. Its just so frustrating when I exercise as regularly as I do and watch what I eat that the 'spread' keeps on a spreading!
Any help would be gratefully received!
Thanks
January 01, 2013 at 01:36 pm
I got off the birthcontrol pills 2yrs ago I'm a 45 yr old Latina with natural big hips but ever since I've just been gaining wait and can't get rid of it. Please I cud sure need the help to slim down to keep up with my 24yr old daughter. Thank you.
January 01, 2013 at 01:34 pm
I want a Menopause Makeover because I am committing myself, for this year, beginning this day, to give my total Self the attention, help and love I have spent my lifetime directing to others. Now is my time to develop new habits, latent talents, interests, better health and fitness, and my spirituality. I began my walking program today! I will lose the 40+ extra pounds! I will improve my skin! I will set in motion and anchor beneficial changes to assist me as I age with grace.
January 01, 2013 at 01:34 pm
I'm 52, had lost and kept off 40 pounds for 7 years and this last year about 10 pounds found me again. I have night sweats, can't sleep, feel crabby ALOT and slightly feel like I'm going insane.....I guess it's menopause!
January 01, 2013 at 01:34 pm
I've tried everything to lose the weight I have gained since starting menopause. I would really love to win this prize.
January 01, 2013 at 01:34 pm
I just want to return to the person I was before menopause... even for just one day!!!
January 01, 2013 at 01:34 pm
Because I am 51 years old, single. I have been working out regularly for 15 years, but I can't seem to get rid of the belly. I know I am reasonably attractive but I feel like I am in a rut and I don't know how to get out of it.
January 01, 2013 at 01:33 pm
Looks like something, I would really need.
January 01, 2013 at 01:33 pm
I am 54 and this past year I have suffered a major loss, and am barely financially surviving. To me part of healing begins with positive self esteem. It is time to do something for me and a Menapause Make Over is the first step in starting my new life as a single, self sufficient menapausal woman. Consider me for the makeover, I am owe so ready.
January 01, 2013 at 01:33 pm
It's creeping up on me. I exercise and watch what I eat, but I am feeling dumpy and unsexy. Please help!
January 01, 2013 at 01:32 pm
I want to stop feeling like a blob...
January 01, 2013 at 01:31 pm
Hitting 50 this year and I want to make the next half of my life my best
January 01, 2013 at 01:30 pm
I just want to prove to the world that just because I'm not 25 anymore, it doesn't mean that I'm less of a person. I'm tired of feeling that people over 45 aren't relevant anymore, and I think this makeover will give me more confidence to take on the next fifty years. I want to make the most of the time I have left. I don't mean that in a morbid way. There isn't anyone on the planet that doesn't have a finite amount of time. I'm just tired of wasting days because I don't have the right attitude or mindset about what's next.
January 01, 2013 at 01:30 pm
I need a makeover. I am 50, grey hair, wrinkles, stuck in mom jeans, bib overalls, I bite my nails, I once was a fashion queen, then I had a baby, and as my husband said, teh Ripcord effect happened. I gained 120 pounds during my troublesome pregnancy. I was in bed for 9 months. I had and am having a hard time to lose the weight. I have lost some of it, but not all of it. I am in my second career, or trying to get into a second career, as an Interior Designer. To be successful I need to project the correct image. Hopefully you can help me make 2013 a year to remember, as the year my life changed...

I AM 62 AND RETIRING FEELING A LITTLE DULL NEED A PICK ME UP!
January 01, 2013 at 01:30 pm
I would love to win this because I would love to be in better shape and look as good as I possibly can. I am starting a new phase of my life and am working to go into this phase happy with who I am
January 01, 2013 at 01:29 pm
Would love to win this!!!
January 01, 2013 at 01:29 pm
After my daughter's year log hospitalization and four year rehab, my role as sole caretaker truly has taken its toll. Caring for her, I was unable to keep my job. This has been the toughest economy to seek employment. Menopause has truly made things even tougher. I need a spark!
January 01, 2013 at 01:29 pm
My menopause symptoms became so severe in October 2012 that I feared I would end up on disability, unable to work. I didn't realize that menopause could be so debilitating for some women, but after consulting with four different doctors and ruling out other causes, it came down to menopause. I have recovered to a large degree, but am still working through the process of finding healthy lifestyle solutions that will improve my energy level and decrease my brain fog.
January 01, 2013 at 01:28 pm
OH MY GOOD THIS WOULD SOOOO WONDERFUL..I HAVE BEEN GETTING DEPRESSED AND IRRITATED WITH MYSELF, SEEMS THE MORE I TRY TO LOSE WEIGHT THE MORE I GAIN!!..I'M 52 AND THIS CREATURE APPEARED AROUND MY STOMACH OUT OF NO WHERE..AND WON'T GO AWAY..PLEASE HELP!! THANK YOU
January 01, 2013 at 01:27 pm
IT Clearly is TIME !!!!! Suffering through the ravages of Menopause is so unique to women all across the globe....it effects womens daily lives in every respect....there are days that I feel as if I am in a fog, with sweats throughout the day and night- bloating and general feelings of 'when will this end'-and it will.....!
January 01, 2013 at 01:27 pm
I want to look better now than ever before! It's time to make a committment to better health and a better body. If not now, when?? But to be successful, I need help!
January 01, 2013 at 01:26 pm
I would like to win a Menopause Makeover to show how Fabulous I feel on the inside.
January 01, 2013 at 01:26 pm
because I have a meno-belly and would love not to.
January 01, 2013 at 01:26 pm
I think my metabolism has slowed; or maybe I should be exercising more and not less. I need help!
January 01, 2013 at 01:26 pm
I don't want to look like a grandma! I don't feel old!
January 01, 2013 at 01:25 pm
In the past year I have been working out on average 3-4 days a week at the gym and have paid for training sessions, and while I know I am in better shape physically, I have not lost any weight. It is frustrating to not see any movement on the scale knowing that I try (don't always succeed) to eat right and am really working on making myself better.
I would love a menopause makeover to maybe help me to understand what I need to change in my routine for my age so I can lose weight and also be more physically fit.
January 01, 2013 at 01:24 pm
Because although I have worked hard to "maintain" my pre menopause mind and body.........I know I could do better with the right information and advice.
January 01, 2013 at 01:24 pm
Looking for a better way to deal with this important time of life!
January 01, 2013 at 01:22 pm
Wow! This year I turn 70 and want to run my first full (26.2 miles) marathon. I ran my first half marathon last summer on my birthday. I want to rock 70 (but look 35)!
January 01, 2013 at 01:22 pm
people say i look 50,but iam 70.i have gained alot of menopausal weight.i know i could look and feel better.
January 01, 2013 at 01:22 pm
I will soon be turning 52. Most of my life I have been on the thinner side. When I was younger, I always said I would never dye my hair and did not understand why people would want any type of plastic surgery. Now that I am "getting older" I now understand why people want to do these things. The older we get the harder it is to lose weight and maintain that "youthful appearance".
Four years ago in August, I was diagnosed with right-sided breast cancer. I made the decision to have bilateral mastectomies with reconstruction at the same time to lessen my chances of a recurrence. Because of my cancer, I am unable to use hormonal products for menopause. To this point I have been okay and not had any issues with that.
I believe the older I have gotten the more vain I have become. I try so many different creams and lotions to try to maintain that youthful appearance. I used to work out with a personal trainer several days per week and was in pretty good shape. Now that I have had these surgeries it is not as easy for me to do workouts. I had the TRAM flap reconstruction which has caused me a great deal of chronic pain and my core strength is virtually nil. I would love to be able to do the workouts the way I used to and try to regain some of the strength I used to have.
Hopefully, a menopause makeover would help to get some of the things I once loved to back again.
January 01, 2013 at 01:21 pm
I really want the menopause makeover because I want the body back that my husband remembers from nine years ago. My 9 year younger husband met a 45 year old woman who was in tip top shape then. My daughter's troubles and my mother's death a year ago along with my slowing metabolism has taken an effect on my weight and shape. I am finally ready now to go something about it.
January 01, 2013 at 01:21 pm
I am 54. I recently got my Masters in Counseling and am working with gambling addicts. My focus is on addicts over 50.
Many of the pathological gamblers I work with are women that started their gambling habit after menopause. Loneliness, trauma, loss, all gave them reason to use.
Exercise, body image and working on releasing shame are all incredibly helpful in giving these women the hope fo a better life.
That said, I too have lost my "oomph" since menopause. I don't exercise anymore and have a lack of energy. I have gained 2 sizes!!!
The Menopause Makeover will not only benefit me, I can use it with my work with these women that have lost all hope.
Bless you!!

i am slowly putting on weight i fught so hard to take off nad would ideally like to lose 30 more pounds get down to weight i was always at until my 50's i work out but could use a little fine tunig
January 01, 2013 at 01:21 pm
I need to get rid of extra weight around my middle where it is so dangerous to carry it around, but it is hard for me to exercise and I don't seem to have the will-power I used to have. I have demonstrated to myself over and over again that I do much better being accountable to someone else. I also am dealing with some tough hormone issues. I'd love help!
January 01, 2013 at 01:19 pm
I feel it is time for a new look. I have started to put on a few pounds, my hair seems dated, and I feel tired and lazy all the time. I really want to make a change this year. My goal is to get back into exercise, nutritionally eating right, and I know I will feel much better about myself. I hope you will consider me for this fantastic opportunity.
January 01, 2013 at 01:17 pm
My birthday gift to myself @57 was to return to college. It has been wonderful and I am surrounded by so many youthful people -- fellow students AND professors. I feel young inside, but I get a shock when I look in the mirror. I would like to see my outside be more reflective of my inside -- be physically healthy and fit.
January 01, 2013 at 01:17 pm
A body makeover is already part of my plans for 2013. I am turning 50 this August and intend to make it a celebration of health, wellbeing and fitness. Thirty pound to shed. I know that I can do it, especially if guided by experts like Staness. Yes, I am blaming menopause for my weight gain but I don't intend to fall victim to it. The extra weight accumulated in the last 4 years makes me feel old and gross and, worse, it robs me of my confidence. I'm not going to settle with that. It needs to come off. And, with a good program and support, I know it can. :-)
January 01, 2013 at 01:15 pm
Because I am going to become a grandma in March & want to be able to keep up with the little rascal.
January 01, 2013 at 01:15 pm
I am turning 50 this year and want to look healthy and feel healthy and to be able to enjoy all that life has to offer.
January 01, 2013 at 01:15 pm
Because I need help. I just can't get back in shape like I used to.
January 01, 2013 at 01:13 pm
Help HOT FLASHES WRINKLES AND MUFFIN TOP
January 01, 2013 at 01:13 pm
Because something is happening to my waist and with each year - it's getting bigger and bigger! A post menopausal tummy. And just want to get more in shape and better health as I continue in my 50's.
January 01, 2013 at 01:13 pm
I would love a Menopause Makeover. Just coming off of chemo and radiation from breast cancer, my maintenance drug is causing me to gain weight, along with hot flashes and moodiness. I think this would make me happier with myself and boost my mood. Also, make me feel like me again!
January 01, 2013 at 01:13 pm
Help! I am struggling with the dreaded tummy when I never have before. I'm divorced and need a MAJOR confidence booster to get myself together again!
January 01, 2013 at 01:12 pm
Because my husband just lost 80 pounds and I would like to gain the confidence I use to have
January 01, 2013 at 01:11 pm
I am 53 and need help very badly! I am about 60 lbs. overweight and this menopause stuff is kicking my butt! I have hot flashes, night sweats and my hair is thinning.I just feel like I have no control over my body anymore! Please help me!!!
Sincerely,
Rosemary
January 01, 2013 at 01:10 pm
I want a makeover because I have watched myself gaining more and more weight for the first time in my life, my hair has become so thin I can now see my scalp. I have a ton of other unpleasant symptoms I don't know what to do about. I am frustrated and I feel so ugly. I just want to cry and hide. I desperately want to win this, I can't tell you in words just how much. I really didn't think there was any hope, I so want to believe there is.
January 01, 2013 at 01:10 pm
I'm 55 menopausal and ready for a change in 2013!!!
January 01, 2013 at 01:09 pm
I''m 60 years young and have beautiful grey hair and want to look like I feel! I have gained weight and just need a boost to get me on the right track again! A teenage girl came up to me and told me I have the best old lady hair she ever saw. Now I realize that I can be a role model to others!
January 01, 2013 at 01:09 pm
I want the makeover because I look like Staness's before picture and want to look like her after pic !
January 01, 2013 at 01:09 pm
What a wonderful thing transformation is. Let's you discover new pieces of yourself. This wonderful makeover is so exciting!
January 01, 2013 at 01:09 pm
I would love this makeover! I have gained weight, especially in the mid area. After having four children I maintained a flat stomach for years but memopause changed all that! I try to watch what I eat but crave sweets more now than I have ever in my life. I feel I need help to get in shape and can't do it on my own, please help.
January 01, 2013 at 01:08 pm
I have shy away from men because I'm so heavy. i want to fall in love and meet the man of my dreams, but I'm scare that I might not get the same feeling from him because I'm so overweight. i also want to learn to eat healty and exercise for stenght due do health problems I have now.
January 01, 2013 at 01:08 pm
My body is fighting the young woman inside of me, and trying to push me into old age....well, perhaps that is overstating a bit, but it's exactly what it feels like some days. The struggles of menopause have not been too much fun, and they do affect our lives. If there's truly a way to help me with the instant weight gain and lethargy, as well as a way to stop or ease the hot flashes, and find my energy level increased, count me in! I'm ready, and trying on my own, nor mentioning it to doctors haven't been successful. I hear, "When is your birthday? Oh, well it's just your age." Baloney! Would love to know your secret as you look fabulous! I would love to be fabulous also! After all, my former nickname was Deb Fabulous...and I'm trying to find her again. Hope you pick me! :D
January 01, 2013 at 01:08 pm
I would love to win the menopause makeover. I have struggled with my weight for the last several years. Tried everything and feel like such a failure that the weight does not seem to budge. Feeling less confident and anxious about my apperance
January 01, 2013 at 01:08 pm
I'm at a point in my life where the support and guidance from an expert who's "been there" and "done that" would be greatly appreciated and welcomed.
January 01, 2013 at 01:08 pm
Oh how I need a menopause makeover. LOL. I have been in surgical menopause since the age of 37. I am now off all HRTs and it's all hitting me hard at 53! HELP!
January 01, 2013 at 01:07 pm
Since menopause came knocking on my door (about 7 years ago) I have felt frumpy, unkempt and not the beautiful person that my man believes that I am! I would love to redo my body and mind! I would love to blog about it too if that would be something that you're interested in!
January 01, 2013 at 01:06 pm
I am sluggish and feel like a heart attack waiting to happen. I look 8 months pregnant even though my arms & legs and back view are pretty svelte for an old lady. At 56, maybe it's too late to do anything?
January 01, 2013 at 01:06 pm
I need this!!! Desperately!!! :)) See my double chin?
January 01, 2013 at 01:05 pm
As I looked in the mirror at myself this morning on this first day of 2013, I asked myself what happened this year? I then realized it was all MENOPAUSE'S fault. I use to think I had an okay looking body. As I looked at my reflection this morning I saw something entirely different. My complextion looked bad, my hair looked dull and as my eyes crept further down I was saddened by my middle aged bulge. So yes I need help and this is why I need this menopause makeover. Sincerley, Kathy K.
January 01, 2013 at 01:05 pm
This would be a great start to a fresh new year, and I also had this happen not long after my husband and I married in Oct. 2007. At 45, I was slim, no lines on my face and lots of energy. In 2008, I was diagnosed with cervical dysplasia, had two surgeries, gained 15 lbs. I have battled chronic fatigue, low libido, and depression for the past two years. I don't want to live that way and I've decided to wake up every day, choosing to be blessed, no matter what!
January 01, 2013 at 01:05 pm
Would love to try this program to help get rid of the menopause belly fat that is not going away
January 01, 2013 at 01:05 pm
Would love to shed the pounds and regain energy
January 01, 2013 at 01:04 pm
Have just been recently thrust into this "next stage" of life...would be great to have a coach lead me through it!
January 01, 2013 at 01:04 pm
I need something. Menopause sucks
January 01, 2013 at 01:03 pm
Oh what a great start to the New Year to be able to get my menopause-ridden self in the groove of getting fit, being healthy and looking great! Would love to be blessed with a Menopause Makeover so that I can be better and look better and win the battle of hormone imbalance and the ravages of Father Time!
January 01, 2013 at 01:03 pm
I have been through menopause and have put on weight and find it very hard to lose weight
January 01, 2013 at 01:03 pm
Yes! Needed badly! LOL! (too bad I can't post a paicture! ugh)
January 01, 2013 at 01:03 pm
I want Menopause makeover to help me feel beautiful again!
January 01, 2013 at 01:01 pm
Yes please!!! I can't think of a better way to start the new year and achieve my New Years Resolutions. Winning the package would get me started on most of my resolutions such as getting my menopause symptoms under control. It is overwhelming to know where to start!
January 01, 2013 at 01:01 pm
It's getting harder and harder to loose weight and keep it off plus I seem to no energy anymore.
January 01, 2013 at 01:01 pm
Menopause has wreaked havoc on my body.I could surely use this makeover!
January 01, 2013 at 01:01 pm
I am a firm believer in good health brings happiness and other positive adventures in life. And I would love the opportunity to take advantage of this Fab Over Fifty amazing journey!
January 01, 2013 at 01:01 pm
Since turning 45 two years ago I've noticed thinning hair which I never had, a little extra weight around the waistline and of course wrinkles and sagging. I work hard to eat right exercise everyday from weight to bootcamp and hockey, but I would love some help as I have never had a makeover of anykind and would love to get that confidence back and feel good about myself.
January 01, 2013 at 01:01 pm
I would be thrilled to start off '13 on the right foot, especially after recently having foot surgery that has curtailed my activities.
January 01, 2013 at 01:01 pm
I have been battling hot flashes for quite awhile now and also have trouble losing weight, some due to taking too many meds! I would LOVE to win this and get a Menopause makeover! I have prayed over losing some weight! This is going to be my year! Keeping my fingers crossed! HAPPY NEW YEAR!
January 01, 2013 at 01:00 pm
I need help
January 01, 2013 at 01:00 pm
I would love a menopause makeover, because I just turned fifty and my usual diet and workout is just not working anymore. Can you help me?
January 01, 2013 at 01:00 pm
I need and want a challenge. I would hope that Staness would welcome a challenge as well! I would certainly be one! I had Breast Cancer in 2002-with a tram flap, and left breast removal. Due to the surgery practice at that time, my rectus abdominus muscle was cut and moved to a vertical position and used as the bottom layer for breast build up on my left side. I have never found anyone in the fitness network that seems to be familiar with how to best assist those who have had this procedure, and what may help those of us who wish to stay fit, get back to our former selves!
January 01, 2013 at 01:00 pm
I feel like everything's out of control and getting away from me.
January 01, 2013 at 12:59 pm
need to be more fit, more strong and more healthy
January 01, 2013 at 12:59 pm
I want to be able to control my changes without medication
January 01, 2013 at 12:59 pm
I am 51, in full menopause, and getting ready to have a hysterectomy due to organ prolapse. I also have scoliosis and a bad hip which I have been told will probably need to be replaced before I am 60. I want to get in the best shape possible to deal with these medical issues and to be able to continue to be active with my husband and 12 year old son.
January 01, 2013 at 12:59 pm
I could use a change for 2013!
January 01, 2013 at 12:59 pm
After four kids and then going through menopause in my mid 30's - I have suffered the effects of menopause for many years. I REALLY need this!
January 01, 2013 at 12:58 pm
I am sick of looking t myself in the mirror
January 01, 2013 at 12:58 pm
It's time to take my body back...to 1982....when I was 28 and on best shape of my life. But I need your help to go back to the future and into 2013!
January 01, 2013 at 12:58 pm
I am turning 60 this coming year and I am now 50 pounds overweight. This has happened during menopause. I would love this makeover to begin the rest of my life. I want to believe the best is yet to come.
January 01, 2013 at 12:58 pm
I'd like to know myself made over!
January 01, 2013 at 12:58 pm
I want and NEED a Menopause Makeover, since I went thru natural early {at 39} menopause I have been unable to loose any weight and then I quit smoking 5 years ago & the weight just packed on!! I am now heavier than ever in my life and just want to get back to the real me! I have tried WW and no success this time and in fact put on more weight! SO please help me!
January 01, 2013 at 12:58 pm
I'm 50 years old and feel like I am 70....hopefully I don't look like 70, but more importantly, I feel 70. I would just like to do something for myself to feel better about myself and that is not how I feel this past year. I'm not interested in sexwith my husband and just look in the mirror and get depressed at what I see....can you help? Helpless in NJ
January 01, 2013 at 12:58 pm
Menopause has drastically changed my life and not for the better.
January 01, 2013 at 12:57 pm
Health Reasons
January 01, 2013 at 12:57 pm
I am proud of the strong healthy body that I have, but I am also aware of the changes that age has done. After having 4 children and working 25 years as a nurse, I would love to have a more fit body that reflects the inner me!
January 01, 2013 at 12:57 pm
OMG!!!! I really need this....I am in such a rt....It would be so awesome to start 2013 with a makeover. It"s just the boost I neeed.
January 01, 2013 at 12:56 pm
I do not want to look younger, I just want to look good for my age. Why not start 2013 right?
January 01, 2013 at 12:56 pm
I want Menopauuse Makeover so that I can look my best and have a sharp edge over others in thr job market.
January 01, 2013 at 12:56 pm
I have recently lost 30 lbs, but still want to lose another 10 and firm up. I am turning 52 this February and want it to be the year of my Make-over!
Thank you for your program!
January 01, 2013 at 12:55 pm
At this point in my life, I wouldn't mind looking like Staness's BEFORE picture! It's been a tough year, with depression over the loss of my 16-yr. old niece to leukemia, a broken back suffered in a boating accident, and to cap off the year...pneumonia! I'm only 52, and I feel like a little old lady in her 80's. It's time to make a serious change and I've got the motivation: My eldest daughter is going to have a baby girl in May, and I want to be a fun grandma, one that can run around and chase a toddler. I am READY for a great 2012!
January 01, 2013 at 12:55 pm
Because I am tired of looking fat, fifty and frumpy. It is time for a new me and a new life. I will do what ever it takes!
January 01, 2013 at 12:55 pm
Would love to take this challenge. Thanks!
January 01, 2013 at 12:54 pm
I want to feel at my best and look my best...when, if not now?
January 01, 2013 at 12:53 pm
I have gone through a rough few years, with divorce after 33 years, and I have stopped exercising.. I need a kickstart!
January 01, 2013 at 12:53 pm
thanks!
January 01, 2013 at 12:52 pm
Getting married again this year and would love to get some of this weight off and feel good and look great in my pictures!
January 01, 2013 at 12:52 pm
i need it bad
January 01, 2013 at 10:09 am
I am so ready for a makeover!! Recently divorced and starting a new career- i can definitely use a new me! Also a recent breast cancer survivor who had a mascetomy.
