Former First Lady Michelle Obama opened up about her recent weight gain and why she’s giving up on her signature ‘Michelle Obama arms.’
Michelle Obama, 58, told People Magazine she earned the nickname “Drillmaster” for leading the workouts at the White House.
But now the “Drillmaster” is doing lighter workouts and concentrating on staying active. “Some of it is menopause, some of it is aging,” she says. “I find that I cannot push myself as hard as I used to. That doesn’t work out for me. That when I tear a muscle or pull something and then I’m out. The recovery time is not the same.”
“I never used to weigh myself. I’m not trying to stick to numbers, but when you’re in menopause, you have this slow creep that you just don’t realize. We’re all in menopause with stretchy [waist] bands and our athleisure wear on, and you look up and you can’t fit the outfits you had last year. I have to be more mindful, not obsessive, but more mindful,” Michelle Obama said.
