How to manage your weight health through peri-menopause & beyond. Tips on midlife weight loss, nutrition, fitness and mental health

Lorraine & Trish meet Weight Watchers’ chief medical officer Dr Kim Boyd to get all the facts & advice on the real reasons we’re prone to put on weight in midlife. She debunks the myths we’ve all bought into - that it’s somehow our fault (it’s not, it’s biology), why ‘eat less/move more’ just doesn’t work when you’re up against major hormonal & metabolic changes, how HRT can affect weight management & why no one should feel embarrassed or ashamed if you’re thinking about taking the GLP1 weight loss drugs. Plus the nutrition & lifestyle advice that works to help shed pounds & sustain your happy weight as you age. Plus: brain fog bloopers including a What’s App whoopsie & more mixed up parcel palavers Brought to you in partnership with Weight Watchers Contact: hello@postcardsfrommidlife.com Instagram: @postcardsfrommidlife Join our private Facebook Group here Hosted on Acast.
