In this groundbreaking episode, I'm tackling one of the most frustrating challenges women face during perimenopause and menopause: metabolic changes that seem to happen overnight. Drawing from cutting-edge research and decades of experience, I reveal why that stubborn belly fat appears and - more importantly - the science-backed strategy to reverse it. I'm sharing my four-pillar approach that helps women reclaim their metabolism, build crucial muscle mass, and finally see results. This isn't just another weight loss plan - it's a complete roadmap for understanding and optimizing your midlife metabolism. What you'll learn: -
The real reason your metabolism changes during menopause (hint: it's not just about estrogen) -
Why traditional calorie restriction often backfires and what to do instead -
The critical role of protein timing and how much you actually need -
A game-changing approach to exercise that specifically targets belly fat -
How sleep quality directly impacts your ability to lose weight -
The truth about hormone replacement therapy and metabolism -
Simple daily habits that can boost your metabolic rate Full show notes: https://www.jjvirgin.com/4thingsforweightloss Dr. Bill Campbell interview: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/getting-lean-for-life-with-dr-bill-campbell-part-1/id911502027?i=1000645266940 7-Day Eat Protein First Challenge: http://jjvirgin.com/proteinfirst Use my Eat Protein First Calculator: http://jjvirgin.com/proteinfirst Download Inner Wellness, Outer Beauty: Your Anti-Aging Cheat Sheet: http://jjvirgin.com/antiaging Shop Apple Watches: https://amzn.to/43dn8QV Shop Oura Rings: https://ouraring.com/ Oxiline bioimpedance scale: https://oxiline.shop/product/scale-x-pro/?ref=mza2ntv Dr. Joe Dispenza meditations: https://drjoedispenza.com/?rfsn=6914154.37386a&utm_source=refersion&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_campaign=6914154.37386a Reignite Wellness™ Protein First Enzymes: https://reignitewellness.com/products/protein-first-enzymes Epsom Salt: https://amzn.to/3IxgmMm Join my Exercise Snack Challenge: jjvirgin.com/snackchallenge Vital Choice wild-caught seafood: https://vitalchoice.sjv.io/daKYGy Food Scale: https://amzn.to/3IBttvS Download my free Resistance Training Cheat Sheet: https://jjvirgin.com/resistance Sunlighten Sauna: https://get.sunlighten.com/JJVirgin use promo code JJVIRGIN when requesting pricing information for $600 off.
