If you're in perimenopause and weight loss feels impossible, you're not alone. I'm starting my journey at 39 and doing it completely differently this time.
No more restricting calories. No more punishing workouts. No more all-or-nothing thinking.
In this video, I'm sharing my realistic approach to perimenopause weight loss that focuses on balancing hormones, building sustainable habits, and actually supporting my body instead of fighting against it.
What I'm doing differently:
✨ Increasing my calories (yes, really) to support my metabolism and lower cortisol
✨ Prioritizing protein to maintain muscle and keep me satisfied
✨ Adding daily movement through step count instead of intense workouts
✨ Working with my doctor to balance hormones naturally
✨ Tracking mindfully to understand my body, not restrict it
This is the beginning of my journey and I'm bringing you along with me. I'll be sharing what works, what doesn't, and all the real, messy moments in between.
If you're tired of diet culture and ready to try something that actually feels sustainable, this series is for you.
Coming up in this series:
→ What I eat in a day + how I track differently
→ Hormone balancing strategies that are working
→ Realistic workout routines for busy women
→ Mindset shifts for ending all-or-nothing thinking
