The Untold Truth About Belly Fat: Why Are You Gaining It If You Haven’t Changed Anything?

#141 - The Untold Truth About Belly Fat: Why Are You Gaining It If You Haven't Changed Anything?

Ladies, let’s talk about that stubborn Meno-Belly. You know the one—it just shows up one day, uninvited, like a bad houseguest who doesn’t take the hint. In today’s episode, we’re diving into why belly fat loves to settle in as we hit perimenopause and menopause.

Spoiler alert: it’s not your fault.

Hormones, stress, and sleep deprivation are ganging up on you. But don’t worry, we’ve got the game plan to kick that belly fat to the curb.

  • Hormones Gone Rogue: Why your midsection decided to play host to visceral fat (and why it’s not the same as your youthful hip, butt, and thigh fat).

  • Cortisol Chaos: How stress—and that glass (or two) of wine—is making your belly fat stick around like glitter after a craft project.

  • Sleep Woes: How skipping your ZZZs makes your cravings go haywire. (Repeat after me, cravings aren't = lack of willpower.)

  • Diet Fixes: Why sugar and refined carbs are public enemy #1 and how fiber, protein, and anti-inflammatory foods can be your new besties.

  • Exercise Smarts: Why you might need to break up with your intense workouts and focus on stress-lowering movement instead.

  • Why your belly fat literallyhas hormonal opinions. (Oh, great, it’s chatty now.)

  • The underestimated power of moving your phone off your nightstand for better sleep. (Yes, thisdoes mean you have to get out of bed to hit snooze. You’ll thank me later.)

  • Practical tips on reducing stress, swapping sugar cravings for healthier options, and filtering out fake estrogens from your water.

  • Freebies + Guides: Check out Lisa Smith Wellness for resources on beating bloat, speeding up weight loss, and more.

  • Favorite Water Filters: Find toxin-free hydration solutions in my shop atLisa Smith Wellness Shop.

  • Adaptogens 101: Don’t miss my “Not Your Mama’s Mushrooms” episode for all things adaptogens, functional mushrooms, and stress relief.

Whether you’re battling Meno-Belly or just need to feel more likeyou again, this episode is packed with actionable tips to get you back to feeling fierce.
