Calories In, Calories Out? Discover why severely restricting calories and doing intense cardio can actually make you hold onto weight in perimenopause by increasing inflammation and cortisol. Learn to prioritize nutrient-dense foods, balanced macros, and strategic strength training instead.

Chasing Quick Fixes: Beware of “wolf in sheep’s clothing” solutions like certain supplements, detoxes, or even weight loss injections. While some can be supportive, they’re not magic bullets. True, sustainable weight loss comes from consistent nutrition and fitness efforts.

Failing to Meal Plan: Without a clear, easy-to-execute meal plan, you’re more likely to rely on takeout, derailing your goals. Learn why meal planning (even if you hate cooking!) is crucial for consistency and healthy choices.

Your Fixed Mindset: If you’ve ever thought, “It’s just my hormones, I can’t do anything about it,” or “I’m too old to lose weight.”, this fixed mindset is a major roadblock. Uncover how to change your thoughts, to get lasting results.

Trying to Get “Skinny”: While wanting to look good is okay, a sole focus on “being skinny” often isn’t enough motivation for long-term habits. Hear how to shift your focus to overall health, vitality, and longevity!

It’s time to stop the cycle of frustration! By avoiding these common traps and adopting a flexible, proactive mindset with smart nutrition and movement, you can lose weight and thrive in perimenopause.
