Stop Creeping Middle Age Spread

Episode Summary:My topic today is midlife weight gain. Why it happens. What we can do about it. Did you know the average woman gains 1 - 2 pounds per year between ages 40 - 59? That creeps up to a total of about 20-40 pounds in midlife. Ugh!!!So many life changes are happening around this time: pregnancy weight gain, higher stress levels, sedentary jobs, low energy, and more. PLUS all kinds of hormonal changes are taking place in your body. Starting in your 30s, estrogen levels begin to drop and you start losing muscle mass, which causes extra weight to settle around the midsection. Although this all sounds inevitable, there are many ways that you can reverse this trend. Stay tuned and I’ll give you all the goods!“I don’t want you to lose hope because there are a lot of things you can do to reverse this and stop that slow weight gain over the years.”- Sarah HaasHighlights01:45 Weight Gain in Women in their 40s and 50s02:59 Why It Happens Around Midlife03:53 Hormonal Changes05:42 Stress Eating11:49 Importance of Staying HydratedEpisodes mentioned:Episode #18 – Dear Sugar We Have to Break Up, Part IEpisode #19 – Dear Sugar We Have to Break Up, Part IIHost Bio:Sarah Haas is a Women’s Weight Release Expert and Body Love Coach. Her passion is helping midlife women release weight, transform their health, and step into the badass, Boss Body life they deserve.Her health journey began when her six-year-old son was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. She threw herself into studying and learning all about nutrition. And in the process, she made some big changes herself for her kids and family. In 2019 she was diagnosed with stage II breast cancer. She realized her life was centered on caring for everyone else (work, kids, family, etc.). Everyone except herself. She realized that stress, lack of self-care, and not listening to her body’s messages were literally making her sick.Throughout her cancer treatments, she focused on her own self-care. And it paid off! Today she is completely cancer-free, and not only does she have her health and energy back, but she also has more strength, joy, and vitality than she ever imagined. Important Links:FREE Light & Easy Lunch Guide to Boost Midlife Metabolism: https://sarahhaaswellness.lpages.co/lunch-guide/Website: sarahhaaswellness.comFacebook: Sarah Haas WellnessInstagram: @sarahhaaswellnessYoutube: Sarah Haas WellnessThanks for Listening:Thanks so much for listening to my podcast!
