28 | Frustrated With Your Metabolism? How Insulin Resistance and Your Evening Habits Are Working Against You in Menopause Right Now

from Mend Your Midlife Metabolism | Lose Weight, Insulin Resistance, Metabolism, Blood Sugar Levels, Cortisol Belly · host Carrie Schrader - Registered Pharmacist, Insulin Resistance Solutions Practitioner, Certified Transformational Nutrition Coach

Are your evening habits secretly working against your metabolism — and you don't even know it? Could your 2pm snack cravings actually be insulin talking, not hunger or lack of willpower? What if a ten-minute walk after dinner could lower blood sugar, reduce insulin resistance, and finally help your midlife metabolism start working for you? In this episode, I'm walking you through the rest of my real blood sugar balancing day — afternoon, dinner, evening habits, and the one wearable tool that changed everything — so you can stop guessing and start reading your own body's data. This is Part 2 of a two-part series. In Episode 25, I shared my morning routine. Today we finish the day. And here's what I need you to know — the second half of your day is where most women are unknowingly working against themselves. I'm covering how I build every meal around fat, fiber, and protein, why I skip snacks and close my kitchen by 6:30, the science behind the after-dinner walk that helps lower blood sugar without medication, why I wear a CGM (continuous glucose monitor) every day — and what it's taught me about my own body, and why insulin resistance in menopause makes all of this matter more than ever. If you've ever felt like you were doing everything right and still not losing weight, this episode was made for you. 🔓 Join the Waitlist — Insulin Insight for Midlife Weight Loss Be one of the first to get access and special launch pricing: 👉🏼 https://carrieswellnessrx.myflodesk.com/insulininsightwaitlist Free Resource: If you're ready to support your metabolism in a simple, sustainable way, download my Guide for midlife women tired of stubborn weight and low energy. 👉🏼 https://carrieswellnessrx.com Community Support: Join my free private Facebook group for Midlife Menders navigating metabolism, insulin resistance, and stubborn midlife weight: Insulin Resistance and Midlife Metabolism Guidance For Women Community Contact: 💌 [email protected] Related Episodes: 24 | Why Your Blood Sugar Is Secretly Behind Your Midlife Weight Gain 23 | What Insulin Resistance and Blood Sugar Symptoms Actually Feel Like in Midlife Disclaimer: The information shared here is for educational purposes only and is not medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
