Last week I left an anonymous question box open for you to put your queries in there about different diets and rules you've been told to follow or you're wondering about so we can break down the facts and help you unpick the noise out there!

Here are my thoughts on "diets" for weight loss in menopause, including the Galveston diet, low carb and whether or not you should be eating breakfast...

Feel an overwhelming pull towards certain foods? Struggle to find an "off" switch when you start eating sugary things? Constantly in this battle with yourself around what you feel like you "should" be eating and what you actually want to eat? Then this episode is for you!

Food rules can be all-consuming. We've gathered them from every corner of diet culture and social media and maybe in the past, they kept you "in check" - you lost the weight eating free foods on slimming world or sticking to that 1400 calorie target militantly where you ate as 'clean' as possible, but now then you found yourself regaining the weight or unsure how to sustain that way of eating going forward and you struggle to eat certain foods in moderation.

Until we break those rules down and start building trust around food, you'll always be caught in that cycle and the endless mental chatter in your head! SO let's get going!!

P.S. here's that anonymous link for anything you want me to clarify about nutrition advice or rules that you're holding onto, no matter how obscure! There's no such thing as a silly question here, I know how noisy it is out there - https://ngl.link/aellisnutrition
