It’s time to stop criticising your body, so you can feel like yourself again.
Going through perimenopause can look very different for everyone. Some women are lucky and sail through it, while others experience the complete opposite.
It can feel that overnight, your body has changed into a shape you don’t like. Your life is feeling out of control and you can’t bare to look in the mirror as you feel unrecognisable.
You have tried every diet going and nothing has worked. You are feeling frustrated and want to be your 20-year-old self again.
Your weight keeps piling on even though you are doing everything right- eating heathy, exercising, sleeping but nothing is happening.
You may have been told it is even harder to lose weight in menopause which has made you more afraid of weight gain. You have now become obsessed with weight loss and how you look.
Which is why it is time to embrace this phase of your life.
This isn’t about letting yourself go, this is celebrating you and who you are becoming.
The truth?
Going through perimenopause is hard, like really hard.
One minute you are fine, the next minute a hot flash happens, you are hot as hell, you can’t remember your co-workers name and you are likely having the heaviest period from hell. All of which you have zero control over and wondering when is this nightmare going to end?
The reason why what you did before isn’t working for you now, is because what you are experiencing isn’t the same as your 20- or 30-year-old self.
You are likely more stressed, frustrated, anxious and if you don’t have the right tools to help support you through that, most likely your only coping mechanism is food, alcohol or both.
On top of that your body is changing, causing you to focus on it more and when it isn’t looking how you want it too, you get more frustrated which can often lead to more comfort eating.
It’s a vicious cycle.
Which is why my coaching focuses on the root of the problem and giving you the tools so you don’t rely on food or alcohol for comfort.
I give you nutritional support to improve your energy levels and make sure you are doing the right things for your body and health now, so you can continue to be independent, flexible so you can still keep up with the young ones.
Embrace this phase of your life, you have more freedom and time and you can start to put yourself first.
See it as an opportunity to do things for yourself and try new experiences. You don’t want to be holding yourself back by focusing on how you used to look.
You don’t have to love the body you currently have, but fighting against it and punishing yourself in the process isn’t helping either.
I know this is not how you want to live your life.
How you view your body can change your life.
Read what a previous client said about their experience
“I came to Amanda low on energy and overall feeling worn out and overweight. I was on HRT which helped with sleep, but I feel that I have been trying to lose my whole adult life. With my weight increasing over the years, I felt disheartened and hopeless. I was sick of yo-yo dieting and I wanted to focus on more than just my weight. I wanted to feel like myself again.
I now have a broader sense of who I am. I am loving the food I am eating and I feel so much more comfortable in my clothes. This journey has been so much better than I expected. I have the energy to do the things I want to do and the cognitive changes have been like night and day. I have a lot more control of my headspace and the diet culture mentality is no longer there. I have more control in my mind, I feel liberated around food and the bonus is that it all feels sustainable.” - Michelle
