Listen Later

Struggling with perimenopause weight loss and wondering why what used to work just isn’t cutting it anymore? You’re not alone - and you’re definitely not broken.

In this episode, I’m breaking down 5 mistakes that make perimenopause weight loss harder than it needs to be - and more importantly, what to do instead. If you’ve ever felt like your body is working against you in your 40s or 50s, this episode is your roadmap back to progress, confidence, and clarity.

We’ll talk about why extreme restriction, cardio-only routines, and scale obsession are actually stalling your goals - and what truly works when it comes to how to lose weight during perimenopause. Whether you’re dealing with perimenopause weight gain, frustrated with your results, or just plain confused by the mixed messages out there, I’ve got your back.

If you’ve been searching for the best macros for perimenopause weight loss, this is the episode that breaks it all down - without the gimmicks.

Here’s what I cover:

  • (6:20) The #1 mindset shift that could transform how you think about perimenopause weight loss - and why “eating less” is the wrong goal
  • (10:00) Why quick fixes backfire in perimenopause - and how consistency (not chaos) changes everything
  • (13:20) The sneaky way alcohol might be contributing to perimenopause weight gain, even if you’re “just having one glass”
  • (17:00) Think cardio is enough? Think again. The muscle-building truth about the best macros for perimenopause weight loss
  • (20:30) How to stop letting the scale ruin your day - and what progress really looks like for perimenopause weight loss
  • (23:40) The bonus mistake that nobody talks about: how unmanaged stress is silently fueling perimenopause weight gain

By the end of this episode, you’ll feel clearer, more empowered, and way less overwhelmed about what your body needs in this new chapter.
