Show notes

Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!

Perimenopause and menopause can sneak up on women. Perimenopause symptoms such as anxiety, fatigue, and weight gain can affect their mood, confidence, and relationships.

Losing weight during perimenopause and after menopause is certainly harder than before due to hormonal changes, sleep issues, and an overall increased stress load.

Losing weight after 40 or 50 does not have to be a walk in the dark. Perimenopause and menopause resources, such as the Maneuvering Menopause Summit with Dr. Shelly Burns, exist to help you navigate this season that is often unanticipated by women.

Arming yourself with knowledge about perimenopause and menopause, and tools to combat these completely normal changes, can help improve your mental and physical health, weight loss, and relationships.
