Is weight gain during menopause really inevitable, or is it just a myth we've come to accept?\xa0
On today's episode of the Total Health in Midlife podcast, I, Elizabeth Sherman, challenge the traditional views on weight management during midlife. We\u2019ll explore why the techniques we relied on in our younger years\u2014like extreme calorie cutting and intense workouts\u2014are not only ineffective but downright detrimental as we age.\xa0
I\u2019ll unpack the hormonal shifts that change how our bodies handle weight and metabolism, emphasizing why a shift toward a health-focused approach is crucial. Together, we'll discover how understanding these changes can empower us to create sustainable habits that nourish our bodies and support overall well-being.
Midlife doesn't have to be a struggle against your own body. In the second part of our conversation, we\u2019ll discuss how to maintain healthy habits during menopause by viewing food as an ally and exercise as an enjoyable activity. You\u2019ll learn how to truly listen to your body\u2019s needs and integrate practices that support quality sleep, stress management, and daily physical activity.\xa0
This episode is all about fostering a positive relationship with yourself and breaking free from the old, ineffective methods of weight loss.
