    Let me know what you thought of this episode!Today we're diving into a topic that affects many women who have undergone bariatric surgery—menopause and the potential for weight regain. Menopause is a natural phase of life that every woman will experience, usually between the ages of 45 and 55, though it can happen earlier or later. It marks the end of menstruation and is characterized by a significant drop in estrogen and other hormones. This hormonal shift can lead to a range of symptoms like hot flashes, mood swings, and sleep disturbances. But for many women, one of the most frustrating aspects of menopause is weight gain, particularly around the abdomen. I go through several strategies to help manage this phase of life effectively.  Remember, this is a journey, and it's okay to ask for help along the way. Menopause is a significant transition, but with the right tools and support, you can continue to thrive.  If you have any questions or topics you'd like us to cover in future episodes, feel free to reach out to us on social media or through our website.

    Let me know what you thought of this episode!Intuitive eating is a straightforward concept. It involves making peace with all types of food, unlike traditional diets that restrict or ban certain items. Instead of categorizing food as “good” or “bad,” intuitive eating encourages you to listen to your body and eat what feels right for you.You might think this means eating whatever you want whenever you want, but that's not the case. Experts explain that intuitive eating involves tapping into your body's natural signals to determine when you're hungry or satisfied.By practicing intuitive eating, you also let go of the idea that you need to lose or gain weight to achieve a specific appearance. The focus shifts to choosing foods that support your overall physical and mental well-being. It can be difficult to incorporate after bariatric surgery but by trying and taking a gentle approach you can learn what foods suit you and minimise foods that don't make you feel good. I go through how you can use it after the surgery and practical considerations to implement. Let's chat: Work with me 1:1 by learning about my coaching: https://simpleandeasynutrition.com/apply.html Website: https://www.thebariatriccollective.com.au/ Instagram: @thebariatriccollective Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thebariatriccollective Email: suraya@thebariatriccollective.com.au Free Downloads: Causes of Weight Regain Graphic Download a Free Three Day Meal Plan with Recipes DISCLAIMER The advice provided in the podcast is general in nature and is not intended to constitute or substitute for dietetics, nutrition, professional or medical advice.

There is over 95 trillion species of bacteria in the gut from the mouth all the way through to the anus. Gut diversity has a strong influence on health and risk of disease. Struggling with obesity may mean that you have had a historically low diversity of your gut bacteria.Weight loss surgery is a strong catalyst for change in the gut bacteria. The effects may not be sustained, which further research is needed.
