3 Ways to Release Belly Fat Without Dieting

“What’s the best diet for losing this flabby belly?”

Great question.

I get asked versions of this question a lot… As you can imagine.

And I know that when women ask me this, they’re looking for a prescriptive answer…

“Eat this,” or “Avoid that,” or “Just follow the _______ diet.”

Want to know the truth?

Almost ALL DIETS can help you lose weight and release fat.

Even belly fat.

So, Keto, clean, Paleo, vegan, vegetarian, Mediterranean, flexitarian, Weight Watchers,…

They can all lead to the fat loss you’re looking for.

But…

Learning to TRUST your body

“Your body is telling you the truth.”

I heard this statement in a podcast.

And it’s been on my mind ever since.

I’ve come to believe whole-heartedly in this statement, and now it’s become the basis of what I coach on.

It’s not really about intuition, instead it’s more about awareness.

Noticing and acting on the insights from my own body.

I now understand that when you practice being aware of your body, you learn to TRUST what it says.

Even when you’re in mid-life, and your hormones are changing.

You learn that your body is always telling you the truth.

Is Revenge Bedtime Procrastination an issue for you?

Last week I was away in Vancouver.

It was so great to be on a vacation again.

To visit new places, and meet people.

That’s where I found myself in a hot spring pool, talking to another woman who introduced me to the term Revenge Bedtime.

And although I knew about it as a concept, I didn’t know it had a name.

So, here’s what REVENGE BEDTIME PROCRASTINATION (which I found out is the actual term) is, in a nutshell:

5-Day CHALLENGE: Eating for Happy Hormones

Perimenopause. Food. Belly fat.

Belly fat in particular is the reason I began working with women in perimenopause.

Because I noticed my own belly was taking up more space.

Even though I hadn’t changed what I was eating.

And even though I was still walking, running, and doing my planks.  

My belly just started to show.

Hanging over my pants.

Making me very uncomfortable in my jeans.

And I wanted to understand why.

What I found out then, was that at 46, I was in perimenopause and my hormone levels were shifting.

A new free webinar… coming next week!

It’s coming!

I’m rolling out a new, free 45-minute webinar for you next Tuesday.

It’s all about belly fat and hormones… but really it’s about so much more.

As your hormones are changing (over 40, heading to or through menopause), your body and mind are changing too.

Belly fat can be one part of that, maybe the most noticeable for some of us.

But you may also be feeling down or irritable.  Or you may be having trouble sleeping.  Or maybe you’re getting headaches or peeing more often.

That’s why I created this webinar, so I can teach you the essentials:

  • How to lose (or prevent) belly fat as you move beyond 40 and through menopause
  • How to feel better – body and mind – and have more energy than you’ve had in years
  • How to work with, instead of against, your changing hormones

Because when your hormones are happy, your body and your mind. are happy too.

So, take a couple of minutes to watch the short video below, and then simply sign up by clicking on the big turquoise button.

Remember, it’s free,  and it’ll be live Tuesday, December 11th at 11am EST.

And if you can’t make it live, register anyways,  the recording will be sent only to those who registered.

Thanks and I’m looking forward to having you online with me on Tuesday!

Keep moving forward my friend,

Debbie

Menopause, belly fat, and food

This week I decided to try something different.

I’m bringing my blog to you in video… I guess then it’s called a vlog.

It’s about the 4 hormones you should know about, especially if you’re heading to or through menopause.

And especially if you’re interested in less belly fat.

Also, I’ve put together a freebie for you.

It’s a PDF with the foods, 3 meal plans, guidelines and resources that can help you lessen the symptoms of menopause – including the gut.

Here’s the link to the freebie:

And here’s this week’s vlog:

Thanks for watching and don’t forget to grab your freebie!!

Keep moving forward my friend,
