Ever wondered what really happens when you quit sugar, especially if you’re dealing with menopause? In this episode, "I Quit Sugar for 30 Days: What Happened to My Menopause Belly," I open up about my honest, unfiltered journey giving up sugar and sweets for a whole month.
I’ll share how seeing my sister’s stunning transformation (just from giving up soda!) inspired me to finally face my own sugar habit. I dive into the real-life struggles with cravings, how I managed those tough first two weeks of sugar withdrawal, and the practical trick that got me through, complete with my favorite high-protein, low-sugar snack for those desperate moments.
We’ll also talk about habit stacking for lasting change, and I get real about the menopause symptoms that improved, like hot flashes, fatigue, and stubborn belly fat after ditching sugar. Whether you’re thinking about quitting sugar or just want advice on habit change and handling menopause naturally, you’ll find encouragement, relatable tips, and plenty of motivation in this episode.
