Do you find yourself stuck in a cycle of losing and regaining the same weight over and over?
Or maybe you gain even more each time you come off of a new diet?
Do you find yourself starting over every Monday?
Or maybe you get close to your goal weight and then something happens, and you're not sure WHY but you start eating off track and can't seem to reel yourself back in?
There are reasons for it - especially as women over 40 experiencing the hormonal changes of perimenopause and menopause - these can be even more so.
In today's episode we address both - the physical reasons we self-sabotage our weight loss and the psychological reasons.

Do you need help taking out the guesswork and would like a step-by-step plan to taking the weight off (and keep it off) in perimenopause and menopause?

In today's episode we discuss: why counting calories isn't the best way to lose weight in perimenopause and menopause.
I help you uncover why counting calories is not only an out dated model for weight loss - but can actually work against you.
You can only drop your calories so low - not only that, a calorie deficit model does not take into account the effects certain foods are having on your body.
Weight loss over 40 comes down to nourishment, not restriction.
It's about giving your body what it needs to thrive - for not only weight loss but great energy levels as well.
This also makes is sustainable when done properly.
