question: I am a 54 year old woman, fairly healthy until recently with a demanding physical job. Within the last 6 months I ve gone from 135 to 128lb, at 5 6 , bone/joint aches, sleeping a lot. I ve also lost a lot of muscle tone which just makes my job harder to do. To me I look anorexic yet I ve not changed my diet nor am I dieting (good genetics). I ve been trying to eat more to make up for the lost weight. I am menopausal and have high blood pressure, controlled with medication.
