If you're walking through menopause and noticing that cravings for sweets feel louder, more emotional, or tied to stress and belly fat frustration, this episode is for you. In Part 1, we talked about blood sugar and hormones. In Part 2 of Breaking Up With Sugar, I'm teaching you the practical mindset tool that changed everything for me.

    171 | How To Break Up With Sugar When Hormones Make Cravings Louder

    Have you ever wondered why your cravings for sweets feel louder, stronger, and harder to ignore after 40 — even when you're eating "on plan"? If you've found yourself battling cravings for sugar, bargaining with desserts, or feeling frustrated that willpower just isn't cutting it anymore, this episode is for you. In this first part of Breaking Up With Sugar, we're having an honest conversation about what's really behind sugar cravings in midlife. This isn't about discipline or shame. It's about blood sugar, hormones, stress, and how your changing body processes sugar differently now — especially when sleep is off, cortisol is high, and muscle mass is lower. I'll walk you through why cravings aren't commands, how long a craving actually lasts, and what your body may really be asking for in those moments. We'll talk practical strategies to calm blood sugar, quiet food noise, and stop the cycle that keeps belly fat stuck — without white-knuckling or deprivation. If you're ready to understand your cravings instead of fighting yourself, hit play. And when you're done, come connect with me inside my Facebook community where we walk this out together with support, faith, and real-life tools.   FULL BLOG + SHOW NOTES 👉 https://www.getyourtrimon.com/blog/how-to-stop-sugar-cravings-after-40   💌 BE AN INSIDER Stay in the know with my weekly newsletter: 👉 https://www.getyourtrimon.com/newsletter   💪 WORK WITH ME Book a FREE discovery call: 👉 https://www.getyourtrimon.com/work-with-kris Join Midlife Thrive Tribe (monthly membership): 👉 https://www.getyourtrimon.com/group-coaching-open Enroll in the Midlife Fat Loss Formula (6-month coaching): 👉 https://bit.ly/joinfatlossformula     Some links are affiliate links.  PRODUCTS I LOVE AND USE Trim Healthy Store:  👉 https://www.getyourtrimon.com/linkpage Amazon Shop: 👉 https://www.amazon.com/shop/getyourtrimon-coachingbykris   Music by: https://www.purple-planet.com/

    170 | Exercise Snacks: How Tiny Bursts Improve Blood Sugar in Menopause

    Not long ago, I realized something had to change in the way we approach exercise in midlife. Pushing harder wasn't working—and honestly, for a lot of women, it was making things worse. If workouts feel more draining than energizing, if your body isn't responding the way it used to, or if your hormones seem to be running the show now, this conversation is for you. Today I want to share a science-backed shift in how we move our bodies in this season—one that supports blood sugar, protects muscle, and helps with belly fat, without requiring long workouts or pushing your body past its limits.   FULL BLOG + SHOW NOTES Read the full post: 👉  https://www.getyourtrimon.com/blog/exercise-snacks-menopause-blood-sugar   💌 BE AN INSIDER Stay in the know with my weekly newsletter: 👉 https://www.getyourtrimon.com/newsletter   💪 WORK WITH ME Book a FREE discovery call: 👉 https://www.getyourtrimon.com/work-with-kris Join Midlife Thrive Tribe (monthly membership): 👉 https://www.getyourtrimon.com/group-coaching-open Enroll in the Midlife Fat Loss Formula (6-month coaching): 👉 https://bit.ly/joinfatlossformula   🎧 Listen in now — and if this resonates, come join the conversation inside my Menopause Makeover Facebook group, where we walk this journey together.   Some links are affiliate links.  PRODUCTS I LOVE AND USE Trim Healthy Store:  👉 https://www.getyourtrimon.com/linkpage Amazon Shop: 👉 https://www.amazon.com/shop/getyourtrimon-coachingbykris   Music by: https://www.purple-planet.com/   I am not a medical professional.

    169 | 12 Ways To Support Healthy Blood Sugar In Midlife

    If you're juggling work, kids, aging parents, laundry piles, a grocery bill that makes you gasp… and still wondering why belly fat keeps showing up uninvited — this episode is for you. Not because you're failing. Not because you're unmotivated. But because midlife hormones change the rules. In this episode of The Menopause Makeover Podcast, I'm talking honestly about hormone imbalance and belly fat — and why insulin quietly becomes the boss of fat storage in perimenopause and menopause. When stress is high, sleep is short, meals are rushed, and you're grabbing bites while cooking for everyone else, your blood sugar and insulin take the hit first. I break down what's actually happening in your body — in real-world language — and then share 12 practical, doable strategies rooted in Trim Healthy Wisdom to improve insulin sensitivity without adding more pressure to your already full life. We're talking protein-anchored meals, strength training that fits real schedules, walking after dinner, fiber, sleep support, and small shifts that help your body feel safe enough to burn fat again. This isn't about fixing yourself. It's about supporting your midlife body in a season that asks for something different. 🎧 Listen in, pick one place to start, and when you're ready for step-by-step guidance and support, learn more about the Midlife Fat Loss Formula — where we build sustainable fat loss for real women in real life.   FULL BLOG + SHOW NOTES Read the full post: 👉  https://www.getyourtrimon.com/blog/trim-healthy-blood-sugar-menopause   💌 BE AN INSIDER Stay in the know with my weekly newsletter: 👉 https://www.getyourtrimon.com/newsletter   💪 WORK WITH ME Book a FREE discovery call: 👉 https://www.getyourtrimon.com/work-with-kris Join Midlife Thrive Tribe (monthly membership): 👉 https://www.getyourtrimon.com/group-coaching-open Enroll in the Midlife Fat Loss Formula (6-month coaching): 👉 https://bit.ly/joinfatlossformula   🎧 Listen in now — and if this resonates, come join the conversation inside my Menopause Makeover Facebook group, where we walk this journey together.   Some links are affiliate links.

    168 | Overcome The Shame–Cortisol Cycle That Fuels Belly Fat

    Have you ever eaten off plan or skipped a workout—and immediately felt that familiar wave of guilt, frustration, or "what is wrong with me?" That moment matters more than you think… not because of the food, but because of what happens next in your mindset and your nervous system. In this episode of The Menopause Makeover Podcast, we're talking about the shame–cortisol cycle that so many midlife women get trapped in after a slip. I'll walk you through why beating yourself up actually drives cortisol higher, keeps your body stuck in stress mode, and makes belly fat harder to release—especially in menopause. This isn't about perfection, restarting on Monday, or fixing yourself. It's about learning how to pause, separate facts from feelings, and return calmly without spiraling. You'll hear how shortening your recovery window, calming your stress response, and choosing one wise next step can protect your hormones and support real progress. We'll also weave together faith, nervous system regulation, and practical mindset tools you can use immediately. Friend, nothing is ruined. This is practice—not failure. 🎧 Listen in and learn how to overcome the shame–cortisol cycle for good.   Wonder if coaching with me is right for you?

    167 | Why Midlife Weight Loss Has To Be Simple Now

    If you're trying to lose weight in midlife but not strength training, this episode may explain exactly why your progress has stalled. So many women in menopause are eating less, walking more, and doing "all the healthy things" — yet belly fat won't budge, energy is low, and hormone imbalance feels louder than ever. The missing piece isn't more discipline. It's muscle. In this episode of The Menopause Makeover Podcast, I break down why strength training is non-negotiable after 40 if you want to lose weight, stabilize blood sugar, and support shifting hormones. We talk about how muscle directly impacts metabolism, insulin sensitivity, and fat storage — and why skipping it keeps your body stuck in survival mode. You'll learn why underfueling protein slows fat loss, how cardio-only routines backfire in menopause, and why building muscle simplifies midlife weight loss instead of complicating it. Midlife fat loss doesn't require extremes — it requires the right framework. 🎧 Listen now. And if you're ready for step-by-step coaching, workouts, and hormone-supportive nutrition, join me inside the Midlife Fat Loss Formula, where I teach you exactly how to eat, strength train, and stay consistent in this season — without fasting, counting, or burnout.   ✨ Open Enrollment for Midlife Fat Loss Formula is happening now!

    166 | The Hidden Thyroid Issue Blocking Weight Loss After 40

    Have you ever been told your labs are "normal"… but your body feels anything but? Low energy, stubborn weight gain, brain fog, and that frustrating sense that something is just off—yet you keep hearing, "Everything looks fine." In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on a huge missing piece for many midlife women: thyroid health. I'm sharing why "normal" thyroid labs don't always tell the full story—and how an under-supported thyroid can quietly drive hormone imbalance, stalled efforts to lose weight, fatigue, and feeling disconnected from your body. I also walk you through the labs that actually matter, why TSH alone isn't enough (especially in midlife), and how stress, undereating, menopause, and even gut health can affect your thyroid's ability to do its job. You'll hear parts of my own journey, why symptoms are real data, and how to advocate for yourself without feeling dismissed or dramatic. This isn't about trying harder. It's about getting curious, informed, and supported. 🎧 Listen in, and if this episode hits home, come connect with me inside my Facebook community or learn more about support inside my Midlife Fat Loss Formula—where we look at the whole woman, not just one lab.   ✨ Open Enrollment for Midlife Fat Loss Formula is happening now!
