Fit Method

WEAR. THE. DAMN. SHORTS.

No more waiting until you’re leaner, tighter, tanner, or “more confident.”. I’ve been there and it’s an uncomfortable place to be!

Confidence doesn’t come from finally having the perfect body.

It comes from showing up and living your life before you think you’re ready.

So this summer, I’m going to challenge you!
Stop negotiating with your body, wear the damn shorts💕

Funny how women will lose weight on vacation while eating pasta, gelato, bread and drinking wine… but gain weight at home eating rice cakes and tracking every crumb.

Maybe the problem isn’t just the food.

Maybe it’s the chronic stress.
The all-or-nothing mindset.
The sitting all day.
The ‘start over Monday’ cycle.
The nervous system running a marathon 24/7.

Vacation often comes with mor movement, better sleep, SLOwER meals and maybe a touch of more laughter, less rushing, and less food obsession.

Ummm no, this doesn’t mean calories stop mattering BUt your body responds to more than math.

A regulated body behaves differently than a stressed one.

That’s the conversation more women need to hear.

Ahhhhh- the trickle down effect. Let’s see what that might feel like.

Perimenopause can make our hunger signals appear louder and less predictable. It can interupt sleep which imoacts our appetite AND cravings go up.

When cravings go up, our stress/cortisol increase and ya, more emotional eating and water retention start to become frequent.

What’s next? Energy dips…which lowers NEAT (we move less without realizing) and therefore burn fewer calories.

We have a greater muscle loss risk and that lowers our metabolic output if we are not strength training!😩

BUT it doesn’t mean you can’t lose weight! You have not built the right systems- for the last 20, 30, 40 years we taught ourselves to eat less and and burn out. Go from one extreme to another and guess what… it has never worked because here you are. Perimenopause simply pulls back the curtain on bad habits that we’ve accumulated over time.

So in perimenopause- you don’t need another hack or detox- you need better foundation. You need to CHALLENGE your old mindset and develop better habits.

What habit would you work on FIRST???
