Myth: you need to eat less & exercise more to lose weight at menopause

If you’ve been told you just NEED to eat less and exercise more to lose weight then you’ve been lied to!

This calorie deficit theory of weight loss is an outdated myth based on the as-sumption that all calories are equal - which they're not!

It also doesn’t take into account your age, sex, weight, whether you’re in menopause or even if your body is in fat-burning mode.

When you just eat less and do more exercise your body will just adjust and do even less [aka you won't lose weight].

Whereas, what you should be doing is STOP eating highly refined, processed and sugary foods that are causing your blood sugar levels to rise AND increas-ing your fat storage hormone insulin.

This means that to lose weight sustainably you need to change both what you’re eating and incorporate the right amount of exercise.

I’d love to know your thoughts on this outdated debate?
