Mastering Menopause

I Couldn't Lose Weight in Menopause Until I Changed This One Thing


Listen Later

If you're doing all the "right" things trying to lose weight in menopause—eating 1,200 calories, working out every day, cutting carbs, skipping breakfast—and the scale still won't move, this episode is for you.

I know exactly how frustrating that feels because I lived it.

At 49, I was doing two-a-day workouts, teaching multiple spin classes every week, trying keto, intermittent fasting, and eating as little as possible. Instead of losing weight, I was exhausted, losing my hair, developing thyroid issues, and watching the scale refuse to budge.

Everything changed when I stopped focusing only on calories and started focusing on macros—especially protein.

In this episode, I share:

  • Why counting calories alone wasn't enough during menopause
  • The biggest nutrition mistake I see women making
  • Why MyFitnessPal's default macro recommendations can work against your goals
  • How increasing protein helped me lose 25 pounds while eating more food
  • An easy first step you can take today to see if your nutrition is holding you back

If you've been blaming yourself because nothing seems to work anymore, I want you to know this: you probably don't need to try harder—you need a better strategy.
