Weight loss struggles in perimenopause and menopause with Louise Digby

“Focus on what you need to add into the diet rather than what you need to take out.” - Louise Digby

Many people focus on diet and exercise when they want to lose weight. However, especially when it comes to stubborn weight, focusing on our health and addressing underlying imbalances gets way better results than eating less and exercising more.

Instead of the typical diet approach of cutting out “bad” foods, a more helpful way of thinking is to focus on what your body needs to thrive and function properly. Too often, we cut out foods and food groups that have a place in a healthy diet and sabotage our progress. When you’re meeting your nutrient requirements, your body is better able to repair, stay in balance, and maintain a healthy weight.

Today, I’m very excited to chat with Louise Digby about the various factors that can affect a weight loss journey. Louise is a registered nutritional therapist, women’s weight loss expert, and founder of The Nourish Method to Lasting Fat Loss. Her clients come to her after struggling to lose weight despite eating well and working hard to burn the fat. Louise transforms her clients' health and well-being by identifying and addressing each individual’s unique needs and imbalances to lose weight, optimize their health, and rediscover their sparkle without restrictive dieting or the need for superhuman willpower.

In this conversation, Louise and I discuss the challenges women in perimenopause and menopause face in losing weight, how thyroid issues impact weight management, why she focuses on addressing underlying health imbalances, the need for adequate protein, fat and carbohydrates in every meal, how to manage sugar cravings, why we need to heal the gut, whether intermittent fasting works, practical steps for starting your weight loss journey, and more. Enjoy the episode!
