No Wellness Wankery

39: Menopause and weight gain. What's the truth?


Listen Later

Menopause with its seriously un-fun hot flushes and dodgy hormones highs and lows is a huge time of change in the body. It's hard to dodge.

But guess what we don't need?

The fear mongering content as we approach this change around weight gain.

As with most wellness wankery, the content around weight gain and menopause is rooted in some source of truth. But does this mean this information is helpful?

And more importantly, what should we be doing instead of introducing more control, more restriction and more dieting?

Let's dive into our listener question from Pru and find out.

📘Have you tried a bajillion diets, only to regain the weight (and more)? It’s likely that diet culture is keeping you stuck in this vicious cycle, full of empty promises and failed attempts. If you want to build real health, check out my best-selling book Your Weight is Not the Problem. Get the deets and access to a free audio sample HERE.
