A radically simple, motivational new approach to weight loss--specifically for menopausal bodies--that guides readers in banishing negative thoughts while managing their sleep, exercise, and diet With menopause--almost overnight--nothing about your body is the same. Where eating less and exercising more once allowed you to lose weight, it now produces little to no results. In this book, Pahla Bowers offers a powerful new method to flip the script on menopause. The secret is in managing your sleep, diet, exercise--and mindset. This book puts a stop to the endless routines and unachievable fitness goals with a practical approach that first targets really unhelpful thoughts (RUTs) and teaches those experiencing menopause how to lose weight and love their midlife body. With a simple program, menopausal women will learn how to: Change their thinking about food--and stop fearing calories and carbs Practice moderate exercise, stay hydrated, and get plenty of sleep Choose a realistic weight goal And never slow down Mind Over Menopause gives women the tools they need to lose weight while eating more, exercising less, and turning good feelings into actions. With chapters that include journaling prompts and "Borrow This Thought" ideas, Bowers teaches how to use the mind like a compass to steer the body in the direction it wants to go. This book proves that aging doesn't have to mean feeling worse, having less fun, or accepting diminishing health--but instead, can be a positive change to finally take back control.
