Wow, this is so helpful! I'm going to start tracking my micronutrients. I do strength training and yoga to increase flexibility. I know I need to hydrate more, but I just have this stubborn belly fat that I am not able to lose. It may be a good idea to get my hormone levels checked as well. Thanks so much for this encouraging and educational video.

Meditation really helps me. There are many free apps in your app store that are 5 mins long so that if ur having a stressful moment u can go to a quiet spot, pop on some headphones or ear buds and just follow what the app is telling you. Just last week I was in my Drs office getting ready to have my blood pressure taken and I was a bit nervous, my blood pressure registered high, I asked for five minutes and listened to my meditation app, nurse took it again and my BP came down to normal. Another thing that distresses me immediately is a warm foot bath with magnesium bath salts in it. Walmart has a cheapie vibrating footub for 20ish dollars and they sell the bath salts, foot bath helps me a lot, also a short walk distresses me, adult coloring or any art activity helps. Just a few ideas, I have a whole list of things that I pull from when I’m stressed out.

I’m 56. I’ve had a full hysterectomy. I do OMAD and eat 1, 300 calories per day. Water and black coffee only. I’ve been doing this for 2 weeks and I’ve lost ZERO weight. I only eat Whole Foods. Why aren’t I losing any weight?? Please respond. Ty!

[BethBurns]

Thank you so much for your video! I've been working on getting more sleep....but I definitely need to bring stress levels down.

I watch YouTube videos that specialize in menopausal weight loss. I’ve lost some but it’s been very sllloooww!

Intermittent fasting and an eight hour window is supposed to be really good for women in menopause to lose weight. I’m trying that now. I hope it helps!

I cannot stay asleep even with melatonin!

It's depressing, everything I watch wants you to join and pay people like me who need to lose weight, but don't have alot of money just can't win. I'm prediabetic and depressed. 😢 My thyroid is normal and I'm not a good candidate for hormone therapy (hight breast cancer) Seems hopeless sometimes 🙏🏼

[cindymunro]

I’m going to learn how to track my macros, thank you

[AR-k]

Weird because I did intermediate fasting and it messed up my insulin control. I did it for to long like 18 hours and then I gained 15 pounds in a year

[RBray-vzrs]

I am so discouraged about stress loads. How do we know when we are stressed out to the point of increased cortisol? I wish there was a cortisol detector/guage/meter

New subscriber: What weight bearing exercises would be good for me as I am 70 and have inflammatory arthritis in both feet, my lower back and my left knee is bone on bone with no cartilage left? I just don’t want to do more damage.
