28 | Lose Weight in Perimenopause Without Tracking Every Bite
from Weight Loss With a Side of Grace I Healthy Eating, Ditch All or Nothing Thinking, Strength Training · host Michelle Hill - Health and Fitness Coach for Moms 35+
Do you feel like the only way to lose weight in perimenopause is to track every bite, count every calorie, and obsess over a number all day? Have you ever opened MyFitnessPal, plugged in your weight loss goal, and immediately felt like that calorie number became the law? Maybe you tried to “save” your calories for the evening, skipped meals or ate very little during the day, and then felt starving, frustrated, and stressed trying to make the numbers work at night. In this episode, we’re talking about how to create a calorie deficit without turning your life into a math equation. Yes, weight loss does require a calorie deficit, but that does not mean you have to track every bite forever, eat tiny meals, or obsess over hitting the perfect number. You’ll learn how small, realistic changes can add up over time, especially in perimenopause when your body needs more support, not more punishment. We’ll talk about simple shifts like adding a 10-minute walk, reducing liquid calories, building more balanced meals, limiting random bites and grazing, and choosing habits you can actually see yourself doing long term. This episode will help you stop thinking of weight loss as “How little can I eat?” and start asking, “What small changes can I make that actually support the body and life I want?” Because lasting weight loss does not come from the strictest plan you can survive. It comes from small habits you can actually repeat.
