5 Reasons Menopause Slows Your Metabolism (That Aren't Muscle Loss) (Part 2 of 3) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This is Part 2 of a 3-part series on midlife metabolism. Last episode we covered a study showing standard calorie formulas overestimate perimenopausal resting energy expenditure by an average of 215 calories a day, and that muscle loss only explains 1% to 2% of that gap. So this week: if it's not muscle, what is it? In this episode: Why estrogen receptors living inside your mitochondria change how efficiently your body turns food into energy How insulin resistance in perimenopause reroutes gluco
Why You Aren't Losing Weight in Menopause (Part 1 of 3) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This is Part 1 of a 3-part series on midlife metabolism. You've been in a calorie deficit, tracking everything, following the formula to the letter, and the scale still isn't moving. This week I'm digging into a new study that measured perimenopausal women's actual resting calorie burn in a lab and compared it to what the standard calculator formulas predict.

The Midlife Metabolism Shift: Why Weight Loss Feels Harder After 40 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
If you’ve been eating well, moving your body, and still feeling like nothing’s working — this episode is for you. Kristine breaks down why weight loss genuinely feels harder after 40: what’s actually changing in your body (hormones, muscle loss, cortisol, sleep disruption, and more), why the strategies that used to work often backfire in midlife, and what the research says actually helps now. Spoiler : it’s not about trying harder. It’s about a smarter approach — and a lot more kindness toward y
