In this episode of Celebrity Menopause, we break down one of the most universal — and most frustrating — parts of perimenopause: weight gain, especially around the stomach, hips, and waist.
If you feel like your body has changed overnight, even though your habits haven’t, you’re not imagining it.
This episode explains the real hormonal, neurological and metabolic reasons why weight changes happen in midlife — without shame, judgement or diet culture.
Dr Golda shares the gentle, science-backed truth about fat distribution, oestrogen fluctuations, progesterone decline, insulin sensitivity, cortisol load, sleep changes, and why the midlife body shifts even when you're doing “everything right.”
If you’ve been wondering why weight feels different, more stubborn, and less predictable in your 40s, this episode will finally make everything make sense.
⭐ What We CoverIf weight gain, exhaustion, brain fog, sleep changes or emotional overwhelm are affecting your quality of life, you don’t have to navigate it alone.
