Blurry vision is a real and under-discussed menopause symptom—and holiday eating can amplify it.

During perimenopause and menopause, estrogen decline reduces insulin sensitivity, making your blood sugar more reactive. 🎄Add several days of higher refined carbs, sugar, and alcohol, and you can see larger glucose swings. Those swings temporarily change fluid balance in the lens of the eye, which can lead to blurred or fluctuating vision.👀

This isn’t permanent eye damage—but it is a signal.
✔ Blood sugar instability
✔ Increased glucose variability
✔ Reduced metabolic flexibility in midlife women

If your vision feels off after holiday treats, your body may be asking for protein, fiber, and steadier meals.

Menopause isn’t the problem—unstable physiology is the message. Reframing how you eat after indulgent seasons can calm glucose swings and support clearer vision.
If this sounds familiar, it’s time to look at blood sugar—not just calories.

Making something out of nothing is an art—and honestly, a midlife superpower.

I’m turning leftover roast into fajitas today.
Yesterday it was leftover chicken with mushroom gravy, carrots, and celery.

Stretching leftovers means:
• fewer blood sugar swings
• less decision fatigue
• lower grocery bills
• more consistency with real food

Healthy eating doesn’t need a perfect plan—just a fridge and a little creativity.

👉 What leftover could you repurpose tonight?

It’s ok if you overindulged yesterday. Forget it and move forward today. We don’t need to wait for a New Year’s resolution to be able to make changes in our body. One small shift today is all you need. Here’s a few ideas to get you started:

1. Easy low key workout
2. Hydrate!!!
3. Eat something green (salads not skittles)
4. Sauna
5. Read that new book you just unwrapped!

This season isn’t about what we get.
It’s about what we give—love, connection, presence, and care for ourselves.
From our home to yours, wishing you a very Merry Christmas and a joyful, healthy New Year. ❤️

You think you’ve read about every perimenopause symptom…

…but living it is a whole different story. Hot flashes, mood swings, sleep changes, cravings — sometimes it feels like opening a gift you didn’t ask for.

And that’s okay. Feeling surprised doesn’t mean you’re failing — it means your body is talking, and it’s time to listen.

✨ The secret? Stop fighting it, start understanding it. That’s exactly what we do in the RE·FRAME Menopause Method.

This season, give yourself support, not shame.

Fiber is the unsung hero of your meals — especially in midlife. 🌿

It’s not just about digestion. Fiber helps you:
• stay full longer
• stabilize blood sugar
• support gut health
• keep cravings in check

Over the past few months, tracking my meals showed me how often I was falling short — even when protein was on point. Just a few simple shifts made a big difference: more veggies, beans, lentils, fruits, and healthy fats.

Fiber doesn’t have to be complicated. Think of it as your body’s natural stabilizer during busy days, stressful weeks, and holiday chaos.

✨ Want a simple, fiber-packed recipe that keeps you full and energized? Comment FIBER and I’ll share it!

December can feel loud and rushed.
This is your reminder that one steady, nourishing meal can make a real difference — especially when life feels full.
No rules.

No perfection.

Just food that supports your energy, fullness, and blood sugar when you need it most.

Simple. I wish I’d thought of this before I went to 4 grocery stores today!!!

Make it easier —instead of ALL the holiday favorite dishes and desserts pick your top 3. Choose pre-chopped veggies and purchase items prepared by the grocery store.
Friends —we don’t need more stress! Just bring it down a notch and enjoy yourself this season!

I ate slowly. I paid attention.
And when my body said, “I’m good,” I listened.

I’m not forcing the last bites just to hit a number. I’ll get what I need later — without feeling stuffed or miserable.

This is what honoring your body looks like.
👉 If this feels different from how you were taught to eat, follow along. We talk about this a lot here.

If you’re waking up multiple times a night, it’s not “just you.”

In peri-menopause, stress, blood sugar swings, and hormone shifts all play a role — especially during the holiday season.

Tonight, choose one small supportive habit: a calming routine, balanced evening snack, or simply slowing your pace before bed.
Your nervous system will feel the difference.

What’s one thing you’re trying tonight?

12/16/2025

During the holidays, our plates fill up fast—shopping, cooking, parties, concerts, gifts, wrapping, more food, more drinks, more expectations.🎄

And then we’re told to add more:
✔️ multiple habits
✔️ workouts
✔️ self-care rituals
Here’s a more realistic approach for women in perimenopause and menopause:

👉 Choose ONE thing today that supports your health.
That might be:
• Drinking enough water
• Prioritizing protein or fiber
• Taking a walk
• Taking a nap
• Pausing to breathe

One aligned action is enough.
If you do more—great.
If you don’t—your body still benefits.
➡️Less pressure. More consistency.
Your nervous system will thank you.
Save this for the days when “doing it all” feels like too much.
