Weight loss in midlife has become so confusing, emotional, and frankly? Full of misinformation and trends that do more harm than good. Women are being told calories don't matter, fat can't make you gain weight, or that low sex hormones, low thyroid function, insulin resistance or cortisol issues are the culprit and that fixing hormones will magically melt fat away. NONE of this is true! In this episode, Tara strips away the noise and talk honestly about what actually drives fat loss in perimenopause. This isn't about shame, extremes, or quick fixes. It's about clarity, realism, and understanding how your body works at this stage of life so you can stop spinning your wheels. Here's what is covered: • Why weight loss really is simple (but absolutely not easy) • The role calories play, whether we like it or not • Why hormones don't magically make you gain fat, but do affect how and where you store it • The two biggest mistakes I see women making when trying to lose weight • Why tracking can feel hard; and why that doesn't mean you're failing • How tools like GLP-1 medications and fasting may have a time and place • Why building muscle is non-negotiable for long-term health and staying at a healthy weight Enrollment in The Perimenopause Solution™ is open until January 13th - Join now to get $700 OFF
