How Should A Woman Prevent Middle Age Weight Gain?

if you’ve always done 30 minutes of aerobic exercise, lifted free weights and eaten low-fat food/many vegetables, what else can you do if you are concerned and have close relatives that gained 60+ lbs.

Is it hopeless, or can women prevent pre and post menopausal weight gain?
