And here is the part most coaches miss: leptin resistance does not always show up as constant hunger. Some women are starving all day. Others barely have an appetite, eat 1,200 calories a day, and STILL gain weight. Both of them have a metabolism stuck in conservation mode. Both of them have leptin signaling that isn't getting through. The hunger is just a separate system that may or may not be screaming about it. If either of those is you, this is the episode that finally tells you why.📖 My Book, Conquering Menopause, Preorder Link: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/conquering-menopause-stephanie-crassweller/1151129377?ean=9798895741719🧠 Not Sure Where to Start?
