The Post Menopausal Pudge . . . and what to do about it.


THE POST-MENOPAUSAL PUDGE... AND WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT.

I was on Facebook recently and a lady in a group I belong to was complaining of the extra pounds she had put on following menopause.  
She was 52 years old – just like me – so I offered her some general guidelines I use for keeping the fat at bay, hoping I could help her out.
But it got me thinking...

 Is adding pounds a natural occurrence after menopause?  
I always accepted it was just a normal part of ageing – and maybe of getting lazier as we age. 
 If hormonal changes contribute to excess adipose tissue (fat) then are we, as mature women, stuck with the muffin top?

How To Get Your Health Back On Track, Post Lockdown

HOW TO GET YOUR HEALTH BACK ON TRACK, POST LOCK-DOWN

Wow! 2020 has been a weird year.  

The obvious difference being the pandemic of Covid-19 that brought the world to a stop.  It has seen us all at home with no gyms to work out in, no trails to run, no classes to attend.  

Add to this the inability to get to the markets for fresh food and the twenty-first century convenience of home delivery, and you have a recipe for falling off the health wagon.

The internet is FULL of ‘get slim quick’ programs promising to help you lose that Covid-19.  

Not the virus, the 19 pounds of fat you might have accumulated over four months of being cooped up watching Netflix and snacking on Oreos.

I help people like you regain their health and lose weight on a plant-based diet.  

Hey there! I'm Terri

 
Thanks for checking out my website. 
I hope you find this an indispensable resource as you navigate your wellness journey. 

First, a little about me.
I have a Master of Human Nutrition from Deakin University (2018) and a Bachelor of Sport and Exercise Science from the University of the Sunshine Coast (2013). 

I am from Melbourne, Australia but currently based in Dallas, Texas. 
I am a mum of two grown up children and I’m married to the most wonderful man on the planet. I’m Fit, Fifty…ish and FABULOUS!!!

I have the cutest puppy on the planet!
 (Yes I do, check her out on Instagram @elvis_puppy_adventures)

I am dedicated to helping as many people as I can lead healthy, vital and happy lives. 
I advocate and teach a plant-based whole-foods diet, free from Animal products, Salt, Oil, Flour, Alcohol and Sugar (ASOFAS).
 I am a firm believer that food can be the best medicine (or poison – depending upon what you eat) and that you can transform your health with a change in diet and exercise.

I consider myself a bit of a health nut.  
So, I’m always looking at ways to improve the health of my family.  
Not just with their fitness and nutrition.
 
I firmly believe that our environment plays an enormous part in our health, and that eradicating chemical toxins from our homes...
such as those found in cosmetics, personal care and cleaning products...
can reduce cell oxidation and neurological disturbances and keep us healthy well into our old age. 

When I found out that everyday household items such as cleaning products and personal care products contain chemicals, some of them toxic to humans, I was shocked!
Since ditching the toxin laden chemical products from the supermarket and switching to natural, safe alternatives, my life has changed for the better.

I'm here to help you regain your health and protect you and your family from the debilitating effects of lifestyle disease. I'm so excited to join you on your journey.
