3 Signs Your Hormones Are Blocking Fat Loss in Perimenopause and Menopause (and what to do about it)

from Thrive45Method™ with Nutritionist Stacey Nicole Smith · host Stacey Nicole Smith

In this episode, I’m walking through 3 signs your hormones are stopping you from losing weight, especially during perimenopause and menopause.If you feel like you’re doing everything right—eating less, trying to be “good,” staying consistent—and the weight still isn’t moving… this might be why.Because after 40, weight loss isn’t just about calories anymore. Your body becomes much more sensitive to things like blood sugar, stress, and hormonal shifts—and those signals can either support fat loss… or block it.These are patterns I see all the time with the women I work with.In this episode, you’ll learn:• The most common signs your hormones may be interfering with weight loss• Why hunger, cravings, and belly fat often increase after 40• What your body is actually responding to (it’s not just what you’re eating)• Why eating less can sometimes make things worseIf you’ve been feeling stuck, frustrated, or like nothing is working anymore, this will help you understand what’s really going on.If this resonates with you, make sure to follow the show for more content on weight loss after 40, perimenopause, menopause, and metabolic health.You’re not broken—your body is responding to the signals it’s getting. The key is learning how to work with it, not against it.To take the free quiz to determine if you're experiencing 1 of 3 weight loss resistance patterns (and what to do about it) please visit my bio. https://linktr.ee/staceynicolesmith
