Your Health Your Choice

Today I took some of my own advice and made time for me.

Self-care isn’t something we should only squeeze in when everything else is done because, seriously, when is everything ever done?

Taking time to slow down, switch off and do something that makes you feel good isn’t selfish. It’s part of looking after your physical, mental and emotional wellbeing.

And self-care doesn’t have to mean an entire day at the spa. It might be a walk, a quiet coffee, a massage, reading a book, getting your hair done, or simply saying “today, I’m making myself a priority too.”

We spend so much time looking after everyone else.

You’re allowed to be on your own priority list.

Why am I gaining weight when I’m not eating any differently? 🤷‍♀️

It’s one of the most common questions I hear from women in perimenopause and menopause.

The truth is, you may not have changed what you’re eating — but your body has changed how it responds to it.

Hormonal changes, insulin sensitivity, muscle loss, sleep, stress and changes in activity can all play a role.

And no, the answer isn’t always “eat less and exercise more.”

Sometimes we need to change the strategy, not just cut more food.

Same woman. Different rules.

GLP-1 medications like Mounjaro and Ozempic can be fantastic tools but they’re not a “take it and hope for the best” solution.

A recent study found that nutritional deficiencies increased the longer people stayed on these medications, with vitamin D, B vitamins and iron deficiencies becoming more common.
Muscle loss was also identified in some people.

This doesn’t mean you shouldn’t take them. It means you should take them with the right support.

Prioritising adequate protein, strength training, key nutrients and regular monitoring can make a huge difference to protecting your muscle, metabolism and long-term health.

Weight loss is only one part of the picture.

Staying healthy while you lose it is just as important.

🟢 ONE THING WEDNESDAY

This week I asked you…

What’s one thing you could swap in your grocery shop that would make a real difference to your health?

My answer? Regular pasta ➡️ Edamame fettuccine.
Here’s why it’s one of my favourite swaps:

🟢 Edamame Fettuccine
✔️ ~24g protein
✔️ ~11g fibre
✔️ ~8–13g net carbs

⚪ Regular Pasta
✔️ ~7g protein
✔️ ~2g fibre
✔️ ~40–42g net carbs

That’s more protein, more fibre and significantly fewer net carbs,helping you feel fuller for longer while supporting steadier blood sugar levels.

You don’t have to overhaul your entire diet overnight. Sometimes one simple swap, repeated consistently, can make a big difference.

👇 Now it’s your turn!
What’s ONE thing you could swap in your trolley this week?
I’d love to hear your ideas,you might inspire someone else!

See you next Wednesday for another One Thing Wednesday!
