#124 She bought her first string bikini in her 50s | Client Spotlight with Rhonda

If your doctor told you to just "accept" the menopause belly, this episode is for you.A few years back, I interviewed Rhonda who was almost 55 at the time, fully in menopause, and traveling for work two weeks out of every month. Her cardiologist AND her GYN both told her weight gain was just part of the process. Luckily, she refused to believe them.In this interview, Rhonda shares how she went from frustrated and stuck to losing 22 pounds and over 27 inches, including more than 7 inches off her lower belly alone. She also bought her first string bikini ever. At 55. In menopause.We talk about:Why HIIT training was actually working against herHow she figured out eating well while constantly on the roadThe mindset shift that changed everythingWhy consistency with calories finally unlocked her resultsBench pressing 40 pounds in each hand (yes, really)Rhonda's story is proof that menopause does not have to be the end of feeling strong, confident, and like yourself again.Want to see Rhonda's transformation for yourself? Head over to Angie's Instagram page, where you'll find the before and after photos they reference in this episode, plus some more recent shots of Rhonda looking even better now that she's kept the weight off and kept building.
