Dr. Mindy here and on this video I am calling all my menopausal women to listen up if you
are struggling losing weight through the menopause experience and Beyond those this
is post-menopausal women I hear you I know you're you're struggling with getting those
extra weight off this video is for you so if you're new to my channel I just want to
say welcome I am a woman on a mission and overturned the metabolic damage that this
world is experiencing right now so if you're new just hit the Subscribe button and notification
bell I'm super happy you're here menopausal women let me talk to you about how you lose
weight to a long fast one day your blood sugar going up and down We're In It Together
okay here's I'm going to keep it really simple here's the first thing to know when you go through
menopause as estrogen declines you become more insulin resistant so it's that downward spiral
of estrogen that causes insulin resistance which is why your old diet that you did at 35 and 25
stops working your old tricks stop working you had estrogen at 35 you had estrogen at 25 you
don't have that same estrogen level at 45 55 65. so we've got to change your lifestyle especially
around insulin and make you insulin sensitive again so that's the first thing second thing
it's kind of a sucky part of menopause is that we get a toxic dump so when we get a toxic dump when
our hormones after 40 go up and down all those toxins that have been stored in our tissues
stored in our bones all the heavy metals the lead the Mercury the thallium thallium is what causes
the hair to fall out all of the aluminum those come out of our tissues and they go up into our
brain and they start to affect our moods right they start to affect how we think and then the
body because it's so brilliant what it does is it stores these new toxins that have been released
into your bloodstream as fat so when we look at unwinding the menopausal weight we've got
to look at making you insulin sensitive and look at detox and here's how this looks let's start
with the quick fix the absolute Quick Fix right now today is to start to apply the principles
of the ketogenic diet I want you to go into the lower carb ideally for a menopausal woman who's
like trying to lose weight keeping your carbs around 50 grams net carbs is a great place to
start and make sure that your car that your carbs are coming from Nature's carbs so we want them to
come from things carbs that come out of the earth not carbs that come out of of a food facility so
the processed carbs even if they're low calorie if they're low fat you might have been doing that
for years those are the things that are causing you to be insulin assistant right now so the
Quick Fix is bring the carbs down and make sure that they're coming from Nature's carbs okay the
second Quick Fix is fasting so I teach fasting variation here I teach six different levels of
fasting everything from 13 hours to 72 hours go watch the videos I've done on the six variations
of fasting all six of those variations are in the new book the new book's called fast like a
girl you can pre-order it now so if you want to pre-order that book just put fast like a girl
in your comments and my team will send you a link but fasting for menopausal post-menopausal women
it is like it's like the golden ticket so if you haven't tried fasting and you're in your
menopausal years now is the time so go back to learning how to build a fasting lifestyle
okay now let's talk about long term what do you do long term so the short term is fasting and
low carb ketogenic style eating the long term I put in the menopause reset so this book you can
get it on Amazon right now what was really interesting is you all asked me for this to
write this book so I wrote it and so many of you benefited from it thank you if you've read it and
enjoyed it appreciate you um and and tell put it in the comments below because we are a community
here but here's what I did in this book is I put 5 five lifestyle changes that every woman
after 40 should do and I'm going to run through those five right now I already gave you one you
should start fasting second you should learn how to vary and cycle your food choices so I go into
detail in this book I go into even more detail and fast like a girl third you gotta think about
your microbiome so if you've been on antibiotics you've been on birth control a lot during your
life when you go into menopause you have a whole set of bacteria called the esterbalome that breaks
estrogen down so if that's destroyed you might be making the age-appropriate estrogen but you're
not breaking it down so we've got to go back and feed our Ester belom I talk about how to do that
in this book fourth principle the toxins you're putting on your face the toxins you're putting
on your body your beauty products the toxins in your house the toxins stored in your body
those are causing you to gain weight eight time to detoxify absolute now as you go through menopause
or you're in post-menopausal years detox becomes more important than any other time in your life
and then the fifth one is what Libby Weaver calls Dr Libby Weaver calls the rushing woman syndrome
I didn't label that but I sure resonate with it we've got to start to look at our stress loads
and I'll give you one other bonus one I've been thinking a lot about that isn't in the book which
is working on your bringing your circadian rhythm back so make sure that you're out in the sun that
you're seeing the sunlight midday you're getting up and seeing a sunrise and sunset because these
blue lights that are showing up and that we're in all day long will also throw off your hormones
and you become more vulnerable to those during menopause now here's what's really interesting
what do you do if you're listening to this and you're 60 years old and you're like okay
well I did all that wrong well this is why these principles are so important for women
is that it's not too late to go back and change your lifestyle when you put the five principles
that I put in this book into action even at 65 you regulate estrogen you regulate progesterone
and testosterone you bring balance back to your hormones so it's not too late to start to drop
weight we've just got to go back and redo your lifestyle and that is would be my absolute number
one recommendation now if you are 40 and you're like okay I don't I don't want that weight gain
help now put these into action right now I feel like this is the book that every 40 year old
woman should be handed so that she understands what's coming down the pipeline for her with
her hormones and I made it short and easy to read and some simple to apply so if you're 40 make sure
you still have a cycle or your perimenopausal in your Cycles like 60 90 days apart make sure
that you're applying these five principles last thing there are if you are listening to this and
you're like I've done all that Dr many I've done it all and it's not working now is the time for
a Dutch test I just did a Dutch test on myself this morning I do one on myself every year it
is the best hormone test that will show you what you need to work on so you can finally drop that
weight when you order a Dutch test from us it comes with my amazing health coach who will go
through and show you exactly what you need to do and give you a nutritional consult on it amazing
so if you wanted to run a Dutch test just put Dutch test in your comments and my team will
send you a link but if you are 50 560 whatever your age and you're at the end of menopause and
you're so frustrated do not give up on yourself you are not meant to gain weight that that is
a myth you're not meant to gain weight through menopause so know that there is an answer I hope
that I gave you a lot of good Solutions here if you need to troubleshoot even more your lifestyle
we do that in the reset Academy we start to break down and customize people's Lifestyles
so that you find the right Rhythm for you through menopause but really from the bottom of my heart
it's so important to me that you do not give up on yourself please it you are not destined to live
with this weight there is hope and I'm putting out as much content I'm writing as many books as
I possibly can to give you that hope so as always from the bottom of my heart I hope that helps
