16 minutes agoI remember hearing a trans man say when he started taking testosterone the weight she'd never been able to lose fell away cause he had the biology and hormones baking it up, he said if anything he'd done less and it just fell off and I thought well that's not fair!
5 hours agoAmir, you teach me new things about my body every day! Thank you for everything you do ❤️
6 hours agoIt’s hard for women to lose weight because everyone is told that we need 2000 calories a day. Most of us don’t, especially after menopause. It’s not menopause itself that causes weight gain, it’s declining BMR and factors as mentioned with tiredness (although if you’re in HRT you shouldn’t be waking at night with a hot flush)
7 hours agoSo I’m carrying fluid around the middle area, I’ve already discussed this with my Dr. I cannot physically exercise move anymore than I am already, eating and drinking healthy. Any tips on how to reduce this please, I will be grateful for any advise
8 hours ago@doctoramirkhan could you please address the addition of folic acid to flour and how the cost/benefit is just way off? It’s likely to impact so many adversely.
8 hours agoThis! I can’t cope with anymore men popping up in my feed telling me how to lose weight! They might be PT’s but they are male, they don’t have a clue, and most of them look like they’re in their 20’! Back off men children and leave it to the adult women to understand our bodies not a money grabbing industry making personal gains from middle aged womens insecurities!
10 hours agoMenopause makes weight loss hard! 😩❤️ I lost 4 stone, then menopause hit and I lost my energy and a bit of myself along the way. I’ve regained some weight and I’m on my journey again. I know a calorie deficit is what helps me lose weight, so I focus on that, enjoy my little walking challenges and move in ways that make me feel good. Not everyone wants to lift weights and get lean, especially when you’re mentally exhausted! Find something you enjoy, be consistent and be kind to yourself ❤️ I’ll always cheer others on because some of us have no support and don’t even know where to start! 🥰
