The Weight That Won’t Shift (And Why Everything You’re Trying Is Making It Worse)

Menopause weight gain: the truth about what works and what’s wasting your time

In this episode:

If you’ve been eating less, exercising more, and gaining weight anyway - your body is not broken. It’s doing exactly what a low-oestrogen, high-cortisol body is designed to do. And fighting it is the problem. I explain why calorie restriction backfires in menopause, why your body is actually trying to protect you, and the four things that actually change body composition: protein, strength training, cortisol management, and sleep. Not a diet. A recalibration. This episode will make you angry. In a good way.

Your One Thing this week:

Three parts. One: delete any calorie-counting app on your phone. Two: eat 25g of protein at every meal this week. Three: lift something heavy twice - dumbbells, tins of beans, your own bodyweight. Notice how you feel at the end of the week. Not what the scales say. How you feel.
