Episode Summary
One of the biggest challenges during menopause is heightened emotions, which can easily be mistaken for hunger. There are lots of weight-loss strategies, but perhaps one of the most important is learning to recognize the signals your body sends you to eat only when hungry and STOP when full, without relying on diets or external rules. Learning how to eat, and not diet, puts you in control, respects boundaries, and leads to lasting weight and life transformation.
