Ep344: The Shift That Makes Fat Loss Finally Click in Perimenopause

In this episode, Tina sits down with Carrots ‘N’ Cake client Meghan to talk about what can happen when you stop chasing quick-fix diets and start focusing on strength, muscle, and long-term health. Meghan shares her experience with reverse dieting, macro tracking, GLP-1 microdosing, and functional testing, along with the everyday habits and mindset shifts, including letting go of all-or-nothing thinking, that helped her get stronger, feel better, and finally feel more at home in her body. Here’s what you’ll learn: - Meghan's journey from chronic dieter to feeling confident in her body again - What motivated her to join Fit + Fueled after years of doing all the "right" things - How years of Weight Watchers, low-calorie diets, and food rules kept her stuck - The surprising reason eating more was the key to finally making progress - The mindset shift that helped her stop letting the scale determine her success - Why building muscle (not chasing weight loss) became her biggest game changer - The timeline shift that made fat loss feel easier (and way less frustrating) - The nutrition habits that moved the needle the most - How she incorporated a GLP-1 to complement (not replace) her healthy habits - A behind-the-scenes look at her current GLP-1, peptide, and supplement routine - What she'd do differently if she had to start her fat loss journey all over again Book peptide consult: https://p.bttr.to/3uiKlRv https://Elliemd.com/Carrotsncake Peptides for Women Course: https://carrots-n-cake.mykajabi.com/offers/3Q7wttmr/checkout?coupon_code=PEP Peptides for Practitioners Certification: https://www.carrotsncake.com/offers/TrVo7mCz?coupon_code=PFPTINA FDN Certification: https://www.anw5astrk.com/SR3WGK/55M6S/ Connect with Tina Haupert: https://carrotsncake.com/ Facebook: Carrots 'N' Cake https://www.facebook.com/carrotsncake Instagram: @carrotsncake https://www.instagram.com/carrotsncake YouTube: Tina Haupert https://www.youtube.com/user/carrotsncake About Tina Haupert: Tina Haupert is the owner of Carrots ‘N’ Cake as well as a Certified Nutrition Coach and Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner (FDN-P).
