Perimenopause can make you feel like something is seriously wrong with your body.

Heart palpitations. Sudden anxiety. Dizziness. Tingling. Tinnitus. Itchy skin. Brain fog so bad you can’t finish a sentence.

I experienced many of these symptoms myself when I entered early perimenopause at 37. My blood tests came back “normal”, yet I knew I wasn’t okay.

Hormonal changes can affect your brain, nervous system, joints, skin, heart, sleep and mood. It’s far bigger than hot flushes and irregular periods.

You’re not imagining it. You’re not losing your mind. And you deserve to be taken seriously.

Always get new, severe or persistent symptoms checked rather than assuming they’re hormonal.

You know what I wouldn’t do if I wanted to lose weight by Christmas?

Wait until I felt motivated.

Motivation comes and goes. Life gets busy. Kids need things. Work blows up. You sleep badly. Perimenopause throws another random symptom into the mix.

There will ALWAYS be a reason to put yourself further down the list.

You’ve got around 15 weeks until Christmas.

Think about what 15 weeks of showing up for yourself could do.

Not perfection.

Consistent meals.
Enough protein.
Strength training.
Walking.
Eating in a way that supports fat loss.
Getting back on track when life happens.

That’s where results come from.

If you’ve spent this year saying, “I need to do something about my weight,” this is your reminder that there is still plenty of time to do something about it.

Start now.

This September, I’m protecting my energy a little harder.

Because perimenopause has taught me that I cannot keep saying yes to everything and expect my body to happily keep up.

If it drains me, overwhelms me, keeps me awake at night, adds more stress to an already full plate or makes me feel like crap…

It’s a NO.

More boundaries.
More sleep.
More nourishing food.
More movement that makes me feel strong.
More time with people who fill my cup.
More listening to my body instead of constantly pushing through.

Perimenopause has a funny way of forcing you to look at how you’re actually living.

And maybe that’s not such a bad thing.

This season of life can be about becoming stronger, clearer and far more protective of what deserves your energy.

Glow. Grow. Flow.
I’m here for all three. 💚

If you want to lose weight by Christmas, you have TIME.

But you need to start.

If I was starting today, these would be my 3 priorities:

1️⃣ Protein at every meal : aim for around 30 to 40g.

2️⃣ Strength training 3x a week + daily walking because maintaining and building muscle matters even more through perimenopause.

3️⃣ A sustainable calorie deficit because yes, calories still matter. You need to be eating less energy than your body uses to lose body fat.

You don’t need to cut out carbs.

You don’t need to live at the gym.

You don’t need another detox, cleanse or 1,000 calorie diet.

You need a plan you can follow consistently for the next few months.

Christmas is coming either way.

Imagine what could change by then if you started NOW.

Do you need to give up coffee in perimenopause?

For most women, no.

Coffee isn’t automatically “bad for your hormones”, and you don’t need another massive list of things you’re suddenly not allowed to enjoy because you’re in perimenopause.

But your response to caffeine can change during this stage of life.

You might notice coffee suddenly makes you feel more:
• anxious or wired
• jittery
• aware of heart palpitations
• hot or sweaty
• restless at night

Or you might drink your morning coffee, feel great, sleep well and have no issues with it.

Coffee also contains antioxidants and can improve alertness and concentration. And sometimes that morning coffee is one of life’s little pleasures.

Pay attention to YOUR body.

Have coffee after food rather than using it as breakfast. If sleep is struggling, keep caffeine to the morning. If anxiety, palpitations or hot flushes are ramping up, try reducing it and see how your body responds.

Perimenopause nutrition doesn’t need to be restrictive.

It needs to work for the body you have now.

Trying to lose weight in perimenopause while also having an actual life… 😂

Eat enough protein.
Get enough fibre.
Lift weights.
Walk more.
Sleep 8 hours.
Manage your stress.
Drink your water.
Meal prep.
Look after the kids.
Work.
Keep the house functioning.
And apparently “relax more” while doing all of the above.

No wonder women feel overwhelmed.

The answer isn’t trying to do EVERYTHING perfectly.

It’s knowing which things actually matter for your body right now and having a plan you can follow when life is busy.

Perimenopause can change your sleep, hunger, energy, recovery, body composition and where you store fat.

So if what worked in your 20s and 30s isn’t giving you the same results anymore, you’re not imagining it.

You need a strategy for the woman you are now.

And no, that doesn’t mean eating 1,200 calories and doing more cardio.

If you’re ready to lose the weight, understand your body and stop feeling like this is another full-time job…
