Episode 9 - Routines, stress and menopause

Menopause, Melanin & Aging Like A Queen ·

2024/08/26

With the summer is coming to an end , it’s normal that this is the time to get back into routines i.e. exercising more, walking more regularly , eating better and having less alcohol.In the fitness industry, we call September the new “New Year” in that most people work really hard to look good for summer and then throw in the towel half way through so then they have to start again in September.In most cases, starting again means, getting back on that diet (that you started but then stopped be...

If you are like me, you probably had minimum (or no) idea that you were going through perimenopause and your mom never talked about it either.Now looking back, I started getting symptoms of perimenopause at the beginning of Covid and that was slow weight gain. Eventhough I was uber diligent with my exercise and food, the weight gain came anyway.After the lockdown I noticed an increase in my histamine response with bug bites (primarily mosquitoes and spiders). I would get MASSIVE hives a...

So what IS the Musculoskeletal Syndrome of Menopause? It is the musculoskeletal (muscular) symptoms that over 70% of women will experience as a result of declining estrogen during meniopause. Dr. Vonda Wright – ortohopeadic surgeon wrote the first published article on this topic to help create awareness for other doctors so they would listen when menopausal women need help with pain.More women suffer from pain associated with osteoarthritis than men, over 50. We have estr...

Episode 6 - It was hard to watch my body change.

Menopause, Melanin & Aging Like A Queen ·

2024/08/05

As a fitness professional, this is something that I KNOW you don’t hear enough in the fitness industry. It is HARD to watch our bodies change.Brainwashed us to believe that if we just “do the thing”, exercise, eat etc. We will have control – until we don’t. When I got pregnant, I knew my body had to change but why didn’t I just “bounce back”? Why did I still look pregnant? Would people take me seriously? No one talked about AFTER the baby. Not ALL women gain weight during menopause ...

2024/07/22

Do I have some exciting news for you!!! I got some blood work back and want to share the results with you. I am 53 and will guess that I have been going through perimenopause 5+ years (?)but don't have a cycle to follow to know. I had a hysterectomy 10 years ago and because of this (my age and symptoms I was experiencing) I wanted to get blood work to see how close I was to menopause. Why? Because I am a BIG fan of HRT – esp Estrogen.I have been on Progesterone for ...

Menopause, Melanin & Aging Like A Queen ·

2024/07/15

I have always been a fan of strength training. I joined my first gym when I was 18 and it didn’t take me long before I found the weight room.Some women don’t like the look of muscles on women – I LOVE them. However, lifting weights (strength training) does NOT mean you will look bulky – esp in menopause. Why is strength training so important? Or more specifically, why is MUSCLE so important in menopause?Let me just start by saying muscle is the organ of LIFE so first things fir...

Episode 2 - The MOST Important Macro in Menopause.

Menopause, Melanin & Aging Like A Queen ·

2024/07/08

What's the MOST important macro in Menopause?First, allow me to explain to you what a "macro" is.Macro is short-form for Macronutrient and there are 3 macronutrients - carbohydrates, proteins and fats. I am NOT a fan of counting macros – disordered eating.Sensitive to diet culture – bad body image – not enough etc.BUT protein I Do measure. Most women don't get enough protein in general and in menopause, our protein requirements INCREASE. Best efficacy – using your hands. ...
