Do You Know What’s Driving Your Hormone Symptoms? Take the first step to balance your hormones naturally with my FREE Hormone Symptom Profile Assessment: https://bit.ly/takemyhormonequiz

You’re lifting weights. Eating more protein. Tracking your steps.

So why does your body feel like it didn’t get the memo?🙃📝

If every workout lately leaves you more bloated, puffy, or confused by the scale, you're not alone.

In this week's episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on what’s really behind post-workout weight gain in midlife—and the 3 biggest mistakes women make when the number on the scale goes up.

In this episode, I’ll answer your most-asked questions including:

✅ Why do I gain weight when I start strength training? 

✅ Can stress from workouts raise cortisol and stall fat loss? 

✅ How can I tell if weight gain is muscle or inflammation? 

✅ Why am I not losing belly fat after lifting weights?

✅ How does strength training affect hormones during perimenopause? 

✅ Why does lifting weights make me feel more bloated?

✅ How does low estrogen impact muscle building during menopause? 

If you’ve been lifting weights—but the scale’s climbing faster than the price of gas on 4th of July weekend—this episode is for you. 🎧
