If you've been eating your protein, doing your workouts, and still wondering why your belly fat won't budge or your muscles aren't showing up… this one's for you. In this episode, I'm breaking down the secret muscle-building amino acid that every midlife woman needs to finally start losing weight and building strength after 40 — leucine. Most women in menopause don't realize that their hormones have changed the rules of metabolism. The same meals that once helped you stay lean in your 30s just don't trigger muscle growth anymore. That's because your body now needs a stronger signal — and leucine is the key that flips on your muscle-building switch. We're going to unpack how leucine helps you: Rebuild lean muscle and boost metabolism after 40 Burn stubborn belly fat and increase insulin sensitivity Improve hormone balance, energy, and recovery Get more from your strength training (without doing more cardio) Hit the right protein and leucine targets at every meal If you've been feeling stuck — like you're doing everything "right" but not seeing results — this episode will help you connect the dots between nutrition, hormones, and your midlife metabolism. Let's make your workouts finally work again — and rebuild the strong, energized, fat-burning body God designed you for.   👉 Want personalized coaching to lose belly fat and feel strong again?

Are you working out faithfully but still staring at stubborn belly fat that won't budge? You're not alone — and it's not your effort, it's your approach. In this episode of The Menopause Makeover Podcast, Coach Kris (a.k.a. "Honey") breaks down three science-backed reasons midlife women stop losing weight — even when they're exercising consistently. Drawing from Dr. Stacy Sims' research and years of menopause fitness coaching, Kris explains why traditional cardio might actually be slowing your fat loss and what to do instead. You'll learn: ✅ Why long, steady-state cardio (Zone 2) isn't the best way to burn fat or balance hormones after 40 ✅ How adding intensity through HIIT and SIT workouts helps your body adapt, build muscle, and reignite fat burning ✅ Why recovery matters more than ever — and how over-training raises cortisol, stalls weight loss, and drains energy ✅ The surprising brain benefits of interval training: sharper focus, better mood, and stronger memory   If your workouts feel harder but your belly fat isn't budging, this episode will show you how to train smarter — not longer — to support your hormones, metabolism, and energy in menopause. 🎧 Press play to learn the three reasons you're not losing weight after 40 — and how to fix each one with workouts that actually work.   👉 Want personalized coaching to lose belly fat and feel strong again?

You know what to eat, you've read the books, maybe you've even had success before… but staying consistent feels harder in this season of life. Hormones shift, energy dips, and one off-plan day can spiral into a week. I get it — because I've been there too. In this episode of the Menopause Makeover Podcast, I'm opening up about what it really takes to stay consistent with Trim Healthy in midlife — when perfection isn't possible and life feels busy, emotional, and unpredictable.   You'll learn how to: ✔ Shift your thoughts from "I can't stay on plan" to "I'm learning consistency." ✔ Keep your meals simple — think easy systems, repeat meals, and protein at every snack. ✔ Create a mindset (and a meal rhythm!) that keeps belly fat from creeping back in. ✔ Give yourself grace without losing momentum. ✔ Partner with God in your wellness journey so you can steward your health — not stress over it.   Consistency isn't about doing everything right; it's about building rhythms that honor your body and your season. When you renew your mind and simplify your plan, staying on the Trim Healthy train gets a whole lot easier. So, grab your coffee or your sipper and let's talk about how to stay consistent, lose belly fat, and walk in freedom with Trim Healthy wisdom — one choice at a time.   FULL BLOG AND SHOW NOTES https://www.getyourtrimon.com/blog/trim-healthy-consistency-tips   WORK WITH ME Book a FREE discovery call: https://www.getyourtrimon.com/work-with-kris Join Midlife Thrive Tribe (monthly membership): https://www.getyourtrimon.com/group-coaching-open Enroll in the Midlife Fat Loss Formula (6-month coaching): bit.ly/joinfatlossformula   FREE GUIDES How to Stop Belly Fat After 40 Are Hormones to Blame? Click HERE to find out.   FREE WORKOUT Access to Vibration Plate Workouts for Women 40+   CONNECT WITH ME Website: http://getyourtrimon.com/ Instagram Facebook   Affiliate Disclosure: Some links are affiliate links.

"Can someone just tell me what to eat?" If that's you, this episode is your simple, done-for-you day of Trim Healthy Mama meals—built for the midlife metabolism. I'm Coach Kris, menopause fitness specialist and host of The Menopause Makeover Podcast. Today we cut the noise and get practical: a straightforward meal planning rhythm that helps women in perimenopause and menopause lose weight with consistency—without complicated recipes or all-day prep. You'll learn how to anchor every plate with 25–30g protein, pair it with fiber and smart fuels (E and S), and space meals 3.5–4 hours to calm blood sugar and cravings. We'll map out energizing E breakfasts (think kefir smoothies, oats with a side of lean protein, sweet potato + chicken sausage), satisfying S options (eggs + egg whites, veggie scrambles, smoothie "soothies"), easy lunch frameworks (hormone-supporting salads, simple sandwiches with added protein), and no-fuss snacks that actually keep you full. Dinner? Think bowls or "protein + two veg" you can repeat all week with my "2-2 method": bulk cook 2 proteins, 2 veggies, and prep 2 E carb bases for automatic meal planning. Inside: Why simplicity beats variety for fat loss after 40 (hello, consistency) The protein + fiber formula that stabilizes hormones in menopause How to use E vs S meals strategically to support energy, thyroid, and cortisol A rinse-and-repeat menu rhythm that saves your brain and your waistline A faith-forward nudge to nourish (not punish) your body this season If you're a Trim Healthy Mama who's tired of overthinking meal planning—or you're brand-new and just want a plan—press play.
