The biggest mistake I see women in menopause make when trying to lose weight?
They have NO idea how much they’re actually eating.
And before you tell me, “I don’t eat that much,” or “I eat healthy” hear me out…
Most women I talk to are doing one of two things:
1. Eating way more than they realize from things like wine, nuts@and seeds, bites, licks, tastes, coffee creamers, and “healthy” fats and snacks.
OR
2. Eating way LESS than they realize, surviving on salads, protein bars, and tiny meals while crushing cardio and wondering why nothing is changing.
Both situations can leave you stuck.
Weight loss isn’t about eating as little as possible.
It’s about knowing where you’re starting so you can make the RIGHT adjustments.
That’s why one of the first things I have clients do is track their food.
Not forever. Not because I want them obsessed with numbers.
Because tracking data beats guessing.
When we know how many calories you’re eating and how much protein you’re getting, we can finally identify what’s actually keeping you stuck.
And here’s another reality…
Most women in menopause are nowhere near the amount of protein they need.
I typically recommend 125 to 150 grams per day, depending on the person.
Protein helps build muscle, manage hunger, reduce cravings, and improve body composition.
If you’re frustrated because you’re “doing everything right” but the scale isn’t moving, there’s a good chance you’re missing some important information.
