    Wellness Decoded with Becca Chilczenkowski

    Becca Chilczenkowski is a Board-Certified Hormone Specialist and Co-Founder of FitMom (TM), a leading functional health practice that helps women heal from complex, chronic health struggles.  The women who have ‘tried everything’ and ‘worked with everyone’ find their answers with FitMom. Whether it’s hormone imbalances, weight loss resistance, gut dysfunction, or autoimmunity, Becca and her team are passionate about healing true root issues, not just masking symptoms.  Becca found her passion through her journey of overcoming exercise addiction, and chronic dieting, where what once helped her feel lean and fit ended up driving massive swelling, weight gain, constipation, moodiness, and zero sex drive. Calories in, calories out, and working out were making her symptoms worse.   Which is why her team knows it takes a different approach to heal. She is also a mom of 2, a dedicated wife, and co-host of The Health Revival Show, a top 1% podcast, where she and her business partner share all things functional health, mom-life, and running a business in the chaos. When she’s not helping clients, she enjoys lifting heavy, Sunday church with the family, iced coffees, and date nights with her husband. 1. There are so many women now who ‘have done everything’ to try to lose weight, and are still stuck, what do you see going on with these women? 2. How does Perimenopause play a role in weight loss resistance and other symptoms? 3. Why don’t things work like they used to once we hit our late 30’s and 40’s as women? 4. Hormone replacement therapy - what are the different types? Are there pros and cons?  5. Who should be doing it?GLP1’s - Seems like everyone is using them, are they helping or hurting us?  6. What other peptides are out there that can be helpful for women?
