The $28 Insulin Test That Explains Why Weight Loss Feels Impossible

Most people trying to lose weight focus on calories, carbs, or willpower. But there’s a much more powerful factor that determines how easily your body can burn fat: insulin (or what I call the forgotten hormone)....

Discover how insulin affects weight loss and metabolism. Learn about hyperinsulinemia and the test that can change your approach to fat burning.

Read this if you don’t really know what insulin resistance is… 👇

Insulin resistance impacts healthy weight management by preventing your body from burning fat efficiently

When assessing a woman’s hormones, this one is often overlooked (and testing blood sugar is not the same as testing insulin)

It’s estimated one out of every two people are now insulin resistant (so unfortunately this can easily be you)... 👀

I test almost every patient with a simple & cheap blood test to see if they’re insulin resistant and if they are, to what degree

Insulin resistance is something we can improve with food, lifestyle changes and natural supplements once we know you have it

If ignored or untreated, insulin resistance can progress to diabetes, now estimated to impact 10% of Canadians 😱

Women with PCOS are often insulin resistant but have never had this assessed (it’s treatable too)

My patients love it when we re-test after 3 months and see their insulin resistance has decreased (or resolved entirely, our favourite)

Don’t overlook insulin resistance when it comes to your health & weight loss efforts. It’s too important 💪

Midlife for women can be exhausting.

Why, you ask?

It’s largely due to hormonal fluctuations. These changes can affect your metabolism, sleep, and overall zest.

You’re also the “sandwich” generation, caring for both parents & kids, which means putting yourself last a lot of the time.

But here’s the good news:

You CAN get your energy back.
You CAN help your hormones.
You CAN improve your metabolism.

And it starts with understanding what to let go of:

1. **Meal Skipping - A No-Go:**
Blood sugar balance is important for all women, not just those with diabetes. Irregular eating habits lead to headaches, energy slumps, irritability and unwelcome cravings. Opt for nutrient-rich foods. Think balance in every bite.

2. **Transform Your Inner Dialogue:**
Energy isn’t just physical. It’s mental. Fake it ’til you make it; a little self-encouragement will go a long way. Simple affirmations, like “I am resilient and capable” can perk up mood and ignite better energy.

3. **Swap Out Sugar:**
Quick sugar fixes? Tempting for energy, but result in a net loss. Every snack should include protein and healthy fat. Almonds, Greek yogurt, hummus with veggies are all examples.

4. **Movement Matters:**
Activity breeds energy. It’s a paradox, I know, but embrace it. Choose something you enjoy. Walking, yoga, swimming… take your pick. Just move. Consistency is key. And it’s a pillar for weight management too.

5. **Emotional Boundaries - Essential:**
THE key to your energy. Your attention and thoughts are precious. Guard them. Saying ‘no’ is powerful. Self-care isn’t selfish. It’s necessary.

Peri is about more than just managing symptoms.

It’s about thriving.

And speaking of thriving...

Join our Free Masterclass this Friday (if you haven’t already, so many of you have!) Link in bio.

We’ll cover energy and more.

Plus, a peek at my new “START: Your Five-Step System to Healthy Weight in Perimenopause” online course.

Can’t wait to share more with you 💚
