    I have lost 35 pounds going grain free, very little sugar, lots of fats like that found in quality meats, bone broth, avocado, coconut oil and olive oil, and lots of greens, cilantro and vegies. No sodas, but lots of quality fruit juices and fresh fruit. No calorie counting. I am slow walking 1 to 3 miles a day. I have not felt this healthy in years and all bloodwork and bp is normal now.

I often used coffee or alcohol to cope but it just exhausted me. By the time I found you I felt fragile beyond belief and frightened and nearly hopeless.

    It’s been my experience that women that are low in hormones need fat to help them make their hormones. I was a low fat vegan for two years and I did not get ride of my menopause belly. I worked out and again ate a whole food plant based diet. It just didn’t work for me. Every body is different and you just have to see what works. I believe with all the beans, legumes, whole grains and fruit I was eating, I was spiking insulin too much. Menopausal women are much more insulin sensitive so avoiding foods that spike insulin seem to be better for me.

    I agree. I was whole foods plant based for 2.5 years and I lost strength, muscle mass, body composition changed and i felt bloated often. I also had terrible pms during that time and realized it was actually all of the tofu/soy I was eating. I also started developing rashes when eating soy after a while. Took out the soy, added pasture raised poultry and eggs, wild caught salmon and tuna as well as organic yogurt and have leaned out, blood work great and made my way back to getting those strength gains. My diet is still plant centered but the small amount of animal protein has really made a difference.

My son is vegan so I have been following many American doctors and watched the well know documentaries re a whole food plant based diet and wholeheartedly agree with you . Having lost my husband to cancer six years ago I feel very determined to try and stay healthy . Giving up meat and dairy this year has been fairly easy but I still use olive oil and have a sweet tooth and cheating when tired , , mid afternoon at work most days , but you look so healthy and so you have inspired me to try harder. Thank you , will follow your videos with great interest.

I had RAI nearly 20 years ago and been on synthroid ever since. Since peri started, I’ve had to slowly lower my dosage as my need has diminished due to my lowering estrogen levels.

I work all day and look forward to that glass of wine while cooking and that glass while sitting for dinner. Man, time to give that routine up, it's going to be rough since I've been doing it for years. Maybe I can taper it off to zero or that celebration drink. I hope!

    I’m 52 and postmenopausal. I’m on HRT, full body resistance train regularly, walk my dog every day, avoid sugar and sugar substitutes and processed foods, I don’t drink any alcohol, I’m mindful of portions, and I meditate daily. However, my belly will not budge. I never had to think about my weight until I was in my late 40s. I am under a tremendous amount of stress thanks to an unavoidable family situation so I know my cortisol is through the roof and my sleep quality is terrible (I’m getting professional therapy help, but it’s not helping my belly). However, I don’t know what else to do to control it. Additionally, I’m only 5 feet tall, so every extra pound shows. It’s very depressing.

    @@sophieuliano7955 Absolutely 100% Agree! Subjects once considered taboo strongly need to be discussed amongst us females from young adult-through-elder years. We should all make a committed and determined effort to break the silence that pervades such subjects and only perpetuates more stoic ignorance amongst our youth. Plus, even some who are now middle-aged and elder females today!!! The ridiculous stigmatisms of yesteryear must and should be outright vanquished from our mindsets. For we can only begin to resolve women's health issues if we ensure that ALL FEMALES receive the best, most accurate health information and healthcare available from here onward regardless of where they live or what income bracket they're categorized in; and nor the lack of healthcare facilities existent nearby them. We mustn't falter in that commitment whatsoever. That is my deepest belief.

    Just began having hot flashes/sleeping issues/belly fat this year at 58...literally overnight! Had testing and still have hormones but they are low/normal. Cortisol was low, which wasn’t surprising due to lots of stress the last few years. Going on supplements for adrenals and will forgo hormones for now. Will definitely implement these principles which just means tightening up a bit. Already don’t eat meat/consume soda. Alcohol will be a once a month treat. I feel empowered by what I’ve learned and can’t wait to feel better!

    This is great. I am glad you've found what works for you. I found that eating a plant-based diet is kinder to my body in the long-term (eliminates inflammation etc), and is also a large part of my journey of expanding awareness in discovering how animal products are produced globally, and the effect of animal production and consumption on the environment. It's a big topic, and I will go into it in more detail in another video. And this is one of the many reasons why I personally don't advocate meat-heavy diets (be it Atkins, Paleo, or Keto).

    Keto is most definitely not for everyone. I gained 30 lbs in a short period of time since I turned 40. I’ve always been able to shed unwanted pounds by exercising and eating healthier, but this time it didn’t work. I even tried keto for 3 months and I had ALL side effects (keto rash was the worse) and only lost 2 lbs. I started eating more plant based, low fat and lean meats and finally started seeing results, however small or slow they are. I also think Keto is not sustainable because it’s soooo restrictive. I truly believe though everyone should stick to what works for them. If Keto works for you than good for you, but I’m absolutely opposed to this constant push by so many as THE only diet that works. It is not!

    truthseeker me too. Plant based made me way worse. I’m one of the ones who ate soy for peri menopause health and ended up destroying my thyroid. My joints began to hurt, I ended up having half my thyroid surgically removed and inflammation markers soared. I’ve never been a sugar fan. My belly fat soared. Once I quit all legumes, all wheat, gluten & went on a low carb diet emphasizing meats, natural meat fats and loads of veggies I started to heal. Whenever I eat carbs in whole grains my tummy pops out. If I enjoy some beans or peanut butter I get joint pain again. Some of us are very very sensitive to the lectins & phytates in legumes & grains. Every other thing in the video I agree with. Just pointing out that for some of us, the plant based diet is a killer. And for some of us, soy is a thyroid killer. My endocrinologist said he is seeing a tidal wave of women who use soy to help menopause and end up killing their thyroid.

    I just have to tell you, you're so beautiful! You are a shining light of an example and just found your channel and I'm SO glad I did! At age 55 I went to the hospital for emergency surgery on my spine, and was told I have a form of post menopausal breast cancer. My back story is basically, I've exercised my whole life almost everyday. I intermittent fast most days, up to about 14 hours. I only drink MAYBE twice a month, half of a cocktail, glass of wine or beer. I'm not a great eater but I'm definitely not a horrible eater- I mean with regard to what I actually eat. I think I have another compression fracture and I'm afraid to go back to the doctor, bc I'd begged my pcp to refer me to an obgyn to TEST MY HORMONES but he never did! I asked him many times! And then I end up in hospital with breast cancer!

    Awesome Video, Sophie!!! My own research in past years coincides with all that you stated! It's an absolutely superb decision for one to try to consume a Whole-Foods Plant-Based routine that is Low in Oils & Sugar. Per a book on all cooking oils that my elderly Mother purchased years ago we shouldn't consume nearly the amount of oil that's in our diets today! Plus the book went so far as to state that we should cease consumption of most oils outside of Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil [low-heat sauteing best only; and heart healthy - low in both monounsaturated & polyunsaturated fats] and Organic Avocado Oil [just for high heat cooking] and Organic Coconut Oil [cooking; Dr. Oz show stated it also aides Fat Loss once consumed regularly].

I used to have a beautiful stomach and seems overnight everything changed :(. Had my hormones checked and am on HRT . So all of that is ok now, but I’m battling this new belly and fat issues (amongst other things) no one I know is so young around me that understands. Ive always been very focused on my body and really don’t want to fight my body for the rest of my life.
