1 Must-Have Ingredient for Menopause ππ₯π
|
What if there were a recipe for thriving in menopause? Would you use it, Reader? A recipe you can make on any crazy, busy day to help you feel less like you're on the menopause struggle bus. "I just need an easy recipe," Jenn said as we sat on logs eating our overnight oats on a recent backpacking trip. Jenn struggled to find the right combination of food to fuel our outdoor adventures without offending her sensitive late-40s digestive tract. I gave her a simple, few-ingredient recipe for overnight oats. Game changer. Not only did Jenn have more sustained energy for our hikes and off-trail scrambles, but she also started to gain confidence in making backcountry meals from scratch. Winning!

Did you see the picture from Thanksgiving on Facebook, Reader? How did it make you feel about your body? On a recent call with the Midlife Feast Community, we talked about ways to support self-care and negative body image moments during the holidays. Movement and the mindset are at the top of the list for many Featers. Finding fun ways to move your body this season is a great way to help decrease stress and the critical body image voice. But what if itβs difficult to get in exercise due to...
Hey, how was your Thanksgiving Reader? "That's a loaded question," said Liz at the start of our session this week. "What happened?" I asked "I hit a deer on the way to my sister's for the holiday - well, almost hit the deer. I swerved to avoid it, skidded through a ditch, and took out a farmer's fence in the process." "Whoa!

With the rings of the can tattooed loud and proud around the middle of the burgundy-colored jello-like cylinder, that sound was the holiday for her, not in my world. I'm NOT team-canned cranberry sauce. Can it even be called a sauce if you have to slice it with a knife? My culinary dietitian brain exploded when my housemate assured me that the canned cran...
