1. Doing HIIT workouts every dayπ«
HIIT spikes your cortisol. And in perimenopause your cortisol is already elevated. Doing high intensity every day is telling your body to store fat not burn it. Less is more.
2. Choosing cardio over lifting π«
Cardio burns calories. Lifting builds muscle. And muscle is the only thing that actually repairs your metabolism in perimenopause. If you're not lifting you are leaving the most powerful tool on the table.
3. Not eating enough proteinπ«
Without enough protein your body breaks down muscle for fuel. Less muscle means slower metabolism means more fat storage. Aim for 25-30g per meal and watch everything start to shift.
None of these are about working harder. They're about working smarter. π
Save this! Your future self will thank you.
Drop a πββοΈ if you've been making any of these. I was doing all three at the same time. π

I am sitting here with my coffee thinking about something big. πβ
Something that has been in the works for a while now. Something I built from scratch for the burned out mama in perimenopause who is done starting over every Monday and ready to finally feel like herself again.
The Fit Mama Method is coming. And the waitlist is opening up very soon.
But before any of that, this moment right here. Coffee. Quiet. Intention. π
Because that's what this whole journey is about. Not the dramatic overhaul. Not the all or nothing plan. Just small consistent moments of choosing yourself every single day.
That's the method. That's the whole thing.
Are you ready mama? Something big is coming and you are going to want to be first in line. π
Drop a β below if you're sipping your Monday morning coffee with me right now!
In a hurry? Try this total body exercise!!

Skipping meals to lose weight in perimenopause is doing the exact opposite of what you think.
I know that sounds backwards. But hear me out.
When you skip meals your blood sugar crashes. And when your blood sugar crashes your cortisol spikes to compensate. And we already know what high cortisol does in perimenopause. It tells your body to store fat. Especially around your middle.
So every time you skip breakfast trying to be "good", your body goes into survival mode. Metabolism slows down. Muscle breaks down. Fat holds on tighter.
And then you're starving by 3pm and eating everything in sight and wondering why you have zero willpower.
It's not willpower. It's biology.
Your body needs fuel to function. Especially in perimenopause. Especially when your hormones are already working overtime just to keep up.
The fix isn't eating less. It's eating SMARTER. Protein at every meal. Stable blood sugar all day. Minerals to support your nervous system. Movement that doesn't spike your cortisol.
That's the whole game. π
Save this and share it with a mama who skips breakfast every morning thinking she's doing herself a favor.
Drop a π if you have been skipping meals trying to lose weight in perimenopause.
This one stopped me in my tracks. π
For so long I exercised to punish myself. To burn off what I ate. To fix what I thought was broken.
You cannot hate yourself into a body you love.
Move because you're grateful for what your body does. Move because you want energy for your people. Move because you deserve to feel strong and alive in this season. π
That's when everything changes.
