Washington Gov. Bob Ferguson announced a plan Monday to create accommodations for working women experiencing menopause.

About 600,000 women are currently navigating peri-menopause, menopause, or post-menopause in the workforce, according to the Washington State Women’s Commission.

“We are losing people in the workforce with tremendous knowledge, tremendous experience,” Ferguson said. “We are losing their voices in leadership because we are not doing enough to prepare for a natural stage of life that impacts half our population.”

Anyone else feel like belly fat after 40 is a completely different game?

In my 20s and 30s, eating better and moving more usually worked.

After 40?

It's like my belly stopped following the rules.

Same habits.

Very different results.

It’s the bloating.

The stubborn belly.

The energy crashes.

I honestly thought I was the only one dealing with this.

Am I?
