Choose foods that are anti-inflammatory to your body. Include foods that boost your gut health and gut microbiome and eat foods that are known to support hormone balance. This is the time of life to choose quality. No more cheap oils and processed, packaged “foods”. Your body is ready and eager to be blessed with nourishing foods.Â
Â
Every single meal you consume needs to have a protein source at the center. Begin to diversify your protein choices by including more fish and more plant proteins.Â
Find ways to lighten up your meals and use less heavy dairy products. Your body is less efficient at burning through some of the heavier fats, so it is time to make some changes.
An easy way to lighten up your protein-centered meal can be by choosing a protein (think fish), a non-starchy vegetable, and a garnish of fat, roughly about a Tablespoon.

Feeling confused?
Â
Not sure what to eat?
Â
Don’t know which Trim Healthy Mama fuels you should put on your menu plan?
Â
Let’s get some clarity.
Â
Optimizing your eating plan during the menopause transition is key to getting weight loss results.Â
Â
But, you can’t get those results if you are feeling confused, scattered, and overwhelmed.
Â
Let me give you some peace, some security, and some confidence knowing that you are eating in a way that is blessing your body towards better health, vitality, and fat loss.

Â
Next, stop the searching and questioning. The Trim Healthy Mama eating plan is hands-down the best weight loss LIFESTYLE approach. You can tweak it for any season you are in and unlike more extreme or fas...
Â
What if you could love your menopausal body no matter what?
Â
What if you knew that the symptoms you experience are just part of the menopause transition and they are taking you to a better place?
Â
You do not have to be a victim to hormonal changes and crazy symptoms. You can have relief through this transition and support your body well while you manage your hormones.Â
Â
Symptoms during menopause like joint pain, aches, hot flashes and trouble sleeping are usually temporary. But the better you treat yourself, the better you are going to feel.
Â
When you were younger you could push self-care to the bottom of your priority list. That is no longer the case! Punishment & deprivation are out. Neglect of your needs and desires has had its day. This season is a time for you to love on your body.

I remember feeling anything but sane around the age of 40 when I suddenly started to gain belly fat.
Â
What made it worse was even though I was faithfully eating on the Trim Healthy Mama plan, I was also experiencing:
>> Low-level anxietyÂ
>> Lack of motivation
>> Low libido (no libido)
And having sleepless nights AGAIN- after all those sleepless nights with 9 babies.Â
Â
My cycle was regular but my moods were unpredictable.
Â
Brain fog set in as did some depression.
Â
So, I went to my Gynecologist with my complaints and she gave me two options: the pill or an antidepressant.
Â
And then she said this could last up to 10 years!!Â
I wasn’t willing to try either of these.
There had to be a better way.
Â
I started researching and ended up joining a life coaching school that was teaching people how to “get control of their life and start creating the results they wanted”.
Â
I learned how to renew and manage my mind (it was SO negative) and that was a pivotal ...
