Is It Possible to Lose the Fat Under the Arms After Going Through Menopause?

jctomson
Never had a weight problem but am now post menopausal and the loss of muscle is noticeable and have loose skin under the arms as well as the stomach area due to 2 C-sections. Is it possible to get toned via weight training and exercise after menopause or should I consider plastic surgery?
