Weight Loss through Perimenopause

Sustainable Weight Loss for Women Over 40 with Lhasa

Episode Summary:
Menopause isn’t just about hot flashes and mood swings—it’s also when weight loss can feel impossible. I’ve been hearing from so many of you about how frustrating it is to feel like your body has hit the pause button. In this episode, I’m breaking down what’s really going on with your hormones, why the usual diets and workouts aren’t cutting it, and how to work with your body to start seeing results again.

Oh, and because we need to laugh through this phase, I’ll also share some of the rare (and funny!) menopause symptoms no one warns you about.

Here’s What I Talk About in This Episode:

• Why menopause changes everything when it comes to weight loss.
• The 15 symptoms of menopause that could be sabotaging your progress (yes, including the funny ones).
• The specific strategies I recommend to get the scale moving again—even during menopause.
