Back on Track: Achieving Healthy Weight Loss - Un podcast de Alicia Shelly - Les lundis

Weight loss during menopause isn’t impossible, it just requires a new approach. In this episode, I discuss the challenges of weight gain during perimenopause and menopause, explaining how hormonal shifts impact metabolism, muscle mass, and fat distribution. I highlight why traditional diets may no longer be effective and emphasize the importance of balanced nutrition, including protein, fiber, and healthy fats. I also cover the benefits of strength training, cardio, and daily movement to maintain metabolism and overall health. Additionally, I share lifestyle tips such as stress management, quality sleep, and intermittent fasting. Most importantly, I encourage patience and self-compassion, reminding listeners that adjusting to these changes is a new chapter, not the end of their health journey. Tune in now to learn how to take control of your weight and health during perimenopause and menopause!
