Menopause Weight Gain? 3 Tips

Before the tips…ditch ideas about weighted vests and GLP1 macrodosing or whatever the latest trend is that social influencers are selling…

Here are three things you can do TODAY to turn things around:

1️. Without resistance training, you’re trading lean mass (muscle) for fat over time with more sedentary living.

Muscle keeps you strong & functional & requires more calories to maintain.

Find a way to resistance train a minimum of 2x week.

2️. Your lifestyle habits have likely changed subtly over time.

High stress, less quality sleep, low protein, less wholesome foods – all take their toll & contribute to visceral (mid-section) fat over time.

Men also experience this.

Pay closer attention to small habits & prioritize YOU (because if you don’t, no one else will).
.
3️. Your hormones HAVE changed but you can talk to your doctor to see if MHT (menopause hormone therapy) is right for you.
.
MHT may indirectly help with weight loss because it will address the MANY OTHER symptoms of menopause that make life so difficult.
.
Discuss options with your doctor.

Also consider a coach to guide you with the first two actionable steps.
