Tracking your food. Staying within your calories. And yet… the scale isn’t moving. In this episode, I break down why it’s not just about calories — it’s about the signals your macros send inside a perimenopausal and menopausal body. Protein, carbs, and fat all have very specific jobs. And when those signals are off, your body can favor storage — even if you’re not overeating. We’re covering: • What each macro actually does after 40 • Why online macro calculators often miss the mark • How to calculate what you actually need • Simple strategies to hit your targets without obsessing or feeling stuffed at 8:30pm trying to choke down 30g of protein If you’ve been tracking and still not seeing results, this episode will help you stop guessing and start fueling strategically. 🧠 Not Sure Where to Start?
