When we become worried about our changing weight and health, it can feel like a minefield of information and it’s hard to know where to start. I so know how you feel. Hi, my name is Dr Wendy Sweet (PhD) and I am a Women’s Healthy Ageing Educator from New Zealand, and the Founder of My Menopause Transformation. When women email me with concerns about their weight gain, I always ask them to read this PDF so that they can start to understand that in menopause and post-menopause, there are some key factors that influence the growth and size of our fat cells. So many women are convinced that they need to do a lot of exhausting exercise, dieting, or increase their protein intake. But all this does is make them lose their confidence, because these strategies don’t address sleep, liver health, and a condition called oestrogen dominance. Three factors that are critical in weight loss physiology. Over the last 10 years, I have supported 18,000+ women to turn around their symptoms and weight using scientifically evidenced lifestyle changes. Women tell me that this information ‘makes so much sense', and I hope it does for you too. Dr Wendy Sweet (PhD)
