In this episode, Pearl shares a very personal tale about her blood sugar and the unexpected turn it took as she entered menopause. For years, her numbers looked great while living the Trim Healthy Mama lifestyle. But as time went on, something began to change. Even though she was still eating well and doing what had always worked for her, her A1C kept moving in the wrong direction. A doctor gave her two pieces of advice. One she took. The other sent her down a completely different path. We’re talking about blood sugar, muscle, protein, carbohydrates, aging, and why sometimes the answer isn’t simply eating less or cutting out another food group. Pearl also shares what this journey taught her about strength training, starting imperfectly, and refusing to let intimidation keep you from building a healthier future. If you’ve ever wondered why your body seems to respond differently as you get older or felt like you’re doing everything “right” and still not seeing the results you expect this is one you’ll want to hear.
