❤️ Step into your 40's and 50's with ease ❤️
As we move through our 40's and 50's, our bodies start to shift. We hit perimenopause, then we hit menopause, then we have the after effects of all of it - lack of sleep, low energy, weight gain, body changes, feeling more anxious and stressed.
Coming from someone who has been through it all and survived 😃 I know how hard it can be. Some days you just want to lie under your duvet and hope someone will wave a magic wand over you to revitalise you. Your hormones change, your metabolism slows, and what used to work might not anymore 😞
But here’s the truth : you just need to be a little bit smarter in the foods you eat and the things you do 💪
Focus on foods that fuel you —
🥩 Protein to protect your muscles and bones, and to help make you feel fuller for longer
🥑 Healthy fats to balance your hormones
🥦 Fibre-rich veggies to keep your digestion happy
💧 Plenty of water to keep your energy levels up and bloating down
It’s not about restricting what you eat. Don't skip meals to reduce calories. Instead think about replenishing your body.
Your body is changing, and it deserves support, not punishment.
If you put some work into keeping your body happy then your body will keep working for you, just the way you want it to.
So don't just guess what to eat or feel you are stuck with your midlife weight gain. Be smarter about the types of foods you eat. Make a plan. Use the knowledge you have, or talk to a professional to find out about proteins, fats and carbs. Then organise your week, your shopping and plan your daily meals.
🍇Enjoy the changes that you feel in your body when you eat food that gives you energy.
🚶♀️Enjoy the changes in your mind when you go out walks every day.
💪Feel strong, nourished and confident at every stage of your life.
🥳Reaching 40 should be fun.
💃Hitting your 50's should be fabulous.
So -
🚶♀️if you feel your body starting to ache when you run, then walk instead.
🏋♀️If you can't keep up with your old fitness class then find a new one at the level that suits you.
🧎♀️ if you feel less mobile than you used to, start doing more stretches or join a yoga class to keep your body flexible.
🧘♀️ if you feel more anxious or stressed make sure you make time for you - read a book, practice being more mindful, spend time with your loved ones.
❤️ Confidence doesn’t have an age limit. So taking a small positive step each day ensures you feel confident and positive at every stage of your life ❤️
