Stop. Dieting. Forever.™ | Weight Loss for Women over 40

May 27, 2026

ABOUT THIS EPISODE

You are doing everything right. The workouts. The high protein. The supplements. The intermittent fasting. And you still gained 20 pounds in perimenopause. If that sounds familiar, this episode is going to change how you see the problem.

In episode 301 of Stop. Dieting. Forever., I am breaking down why perimenopause weight gain is not a food problem, not a discipline problem, and not something your gynecologist is equipped to solve. I share a message from a high school classmate that captures exactly what so many women in menopause are experiencing, the research behind why the medical system has been looking at perimenopause through the wrong lens for decades, and why the missing piece is not another tactic. I also share my own story of navigating perimenopause weight gain with no real support until I found functional medicine and HRT.

This is episode three of the Why Nothing Is Working series.
