Ep 213 Menopause and Permanent Weight Lo...

Leslie M. Thornton
About this episode

Menopause brings about various changes in the body, and navigating the changes that come with it can be a challenging journey for many women. From hot flashes to mood swings, the physical and emotional transformations can sometimes feel overwhelming. One topic that often arises during this phase of life is weight gain. The hormonal fluctuations during this time can make it challenging to maintain a healthy weight. 

However, with the right approach, it is possible to achieve permanent weight loss during and after menopause. In this episode, we will explore the connection between menopause and permanent weight loss, providing you with valuable insights and a unique perspective to help you maintain a mindset that supports the lifestyle you want at this exciting time of your life. Let's embark on a journey towards sustainable weight loss and find out how Hypnosis helps you achieve it. 

"If you are always like a yes to living whatever kind of life you want to live and you focus more on how you want to feel; I'm not talking about like gorge yourself. And if you are in a spot where I was in in the past where you've been dieting your whole life and you are terrified that you won't be able to stop and you even have evidence that you don't stop eating, once you start, then we have work to do. That's what the fast track to freedom program that I have supports you through." - Leslie Thornton
