You feel sluggish, grumpy, you forgot why you even came into the room, and now your pants are tight... perimenopause and menopause can be a challenging period in a woman's life!Alison Bladh, Nutritional Therapist, joins me today to help us make sense of menopause and the weight gain that we may struggle with.We'll review why menopause symptoms occur (estrogen dropping, insulin spikes, stress hormones, and appetite are all part of the picture) and we'll talk about what we can do to minimize the weight gain we are trying to avoid.Alison shares that nourishing foods, portion control, lots of protein, and breaks between meals are powerful ways to feel great and minimize the change in our bodies.Episode 17 on gut health and episode 33 on easy healthy cooking are the perfect episodes to listen to along with this one! Let's Connect:Grab Alison's weekly newsletter at https://www.alisonbladh.com/newsletter and make sure to visit her website and connect with her on Instagram.Make sure to get your free mini-series to stop self sabotaging: https://www.bit.ly/empoweredselftalk and let's connect at @omgteachme on Instagram! Find the Nostalgia OMG Teach Me playlist on Spotify or Amazon Music by going to https://omgteachme.com/watch-listen/   Text me to ask a question - I'll answer on the podcast!Support the show🌸 Liked this episode?
