Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a participatory research study which will enroll women (n of up to 56) with experience of menopause to help identify preferred strategies (modalities) for weight loss, which will combine calorie (dietary) restriction and exercise tactics.

Aim 1: Explore attitudes and perceptions about weight gain during the menopause transition, and identify weight loss strategies from the patient (peer) perspective.

\- The investigators will apply these learnings: 1) to understand barriers for weight management during menopause; 2) to establish strategies to guide retention; 3) to finalize the intervention structure, including feedback on the frequency and duration of the study visits; and 4) to gather feedback on menopause-specific education resources set to be provided throughout the intervention.

Aim 2: Engage the Community Advisory Board (CAB) of the Louisiana Clinical and Translational Center (LA CaTS) to understand scalability and community-based implementation of an intervention tailored for women in perimenopause.

\- The investigators will then utilize the Louisiana Clinical \& Translational Science Center (LA CaTS) Community Advisory Board (CAB) to help us tailor a lifestyle intervention in perimenopausal women with emphasis on scalability and community-based implementation using learnings obtained from the focus groups.
