  • This is my newest weight loss update where I talk about how I'm losing the menopause weight and what progress I've made. I gained weight in perimenopause like many of you and it refused to budge until I figured out a plan that worked for my menopausal body. Now I'm losing weight and regaining my health and I want to share what's working for me with all of you.

    Hi ladies! People are coming for me saying a pound of muscle and a pound of fat are the same and muscle doesn’t weigh more. I know a pound is a pound! What I mean is muscle is denser so if you have the same sized amount of muscle and fat the muscle will weigh more so when you put more muscle on your body you will likely go up a few pounds. I obviously should have worded it better! Sheesh! Also I'm frequently asked about the fat burning collagen, anti aging collagen and trebiotic(Trim, Biocell and Axis) so I'll leave the affiliate link here in the comments(with a discount code attached) for anyone that wants to check out the products and learn more. msha.ke/kariannewright

    I'm reaching my 50s, and my weight just increased in recent years no matter how much I exercised, aches here and there, and bad acne. Yes, Kari Anne is so right. I started with her videos and I also found youtube channel with walking and other workouts, challenges and streching videos. I skipped dairy, wheat, sugar, butter, red meat and started exercising every day taking one challenge after another. Added avocado oil, some self-made coconut oil chocolate, collagen and maca to my diet. It's been 8 weeks now and my skin is better, acne gone, not tired in the afternoons, aches disappearing, weight dropping! I was doing it all wrong and when I finally faced the fact that I have to exercise and eat according to my age and gender things started to change. When I noticed the first real difference in my energy level and that aches were disappearing, I was so happy I burst into tears of happiness ❤

    I am now 63 and went into premature menopause at 43 as I only had one ovary left. My weight went from 57kg (125lbs) which it had been even after menopause started but then one day, boom. All this weight, and when you have never had to deal with this it is so depressing. On top of that I was diagnosed with systemic lupus and was on cortisone. My weight went up to 90kg and I could not look at myself in the mirror. I got it off by dancing at night (couldn’t go to a gym due to having osteoporosis fractures) in my pjs to 80’s dance music. Now sitting at 70kg which is still is still heavier than when I was 9months pregnant but my dr said that the 57kg is just never going to happen again, so I am happier with myself now. We are so critical of ourselves, but there is nothing worse than feeling that this body you have doesn’t belong to you. I do eat a lot of salads and very healthy food and do fast too.

    At 30 years of age I was 113. At 57. I am now 212... All of this while going to the gym 4 days a week, walking, eating correctly I would say it's perimenopause and then menopause but I don't even know anymore...
    I've done keto, I've done dirty keto, tried the carnivore diet. Finally gave up and settled on eating a little bit of everything...

I’m so thankful to have found someone who understands….you! ❤ Thank you for sharing your journey and all you’ve learned. I figured out that less was more regarding exercise, and that being hungry stressed my body and increased cortisol. That moving more and eating less was NOT effective. Then I found you and you affirmed it and gave me confidence. 🥰

      You might want to look for a holistic doctor in your area. They would be better able to help you than a traditional medical doctor would. I just started going one about a month ago. I found out through all the testing she had me do that I have yeast (candida), leaky gut, and inflammation. She is going to put me on a special diet and some supplements to treat those things. I hope it works! I love this channel too (I’m 46). I have learned so much from her.

    Good girl. Strength training gives my Linda Hamilton guns at 57. I'm low cortisol and had adrenal fatigue so couldn't exercise for 6 months due to. So suddenly my guns went to wings so I feel you! Found a fantastic Dr to sort that and balance my hormones with HRT and I feel like I'm no longer an old lady again. Walking and strength training is definitely the way to go. I work full time as a kinder teacher and a youtuber and my functional medicine doctor in Bangkok was a blessing to find.

The doctors have been telling me since I was 35 that “it may be perimenopause.” I have had recent visits to the doctors, several different types in just the past few weeks as of March 2024. Your videos, the couple I have discovered, have made me finally accept and learn and understand that I am and have been in… perimenopause. Thank you

Thank you for everything I’ve also got my stomach on the inside feeling better, I’m no longer constipated or have acid reflux choking me all night. The magnesium is helping with my sleep as well.
    I’ve suffered with my hormones because I’ve had breast cancer twice and can’t take HRTs. I’ve also had brain tumor surgery and two failed back surgeries all in the past 7yrs. As well as caring for my mom who moved in with me 4yrs ago with Alzheimer’s. It’s a lot and depression sets in. I haven’t been in a relationship in 5yrs and have become a shut in. I’m hoping I regain some energy and desire soon. 😊

So now l am mindfully moving slowly into regaining muscle and strength using resistance bands and a pilates bar. Nothing crazy! Eating mostly clean ,but treats in moderation. I am 119 lbs. on average and kept off the 75+ lbs. I lost since 2016. It's really about balance and finding what works for your body.

Fruit, veggies, chia seeds, beans, nuts, chickpeas, sweet potatoes, cottage cheese, greek yogourt, soy milk(for chia pudding). I eat multigrain sourdough bread a couple of times a week as well and wraps occasionally. Things like that. I do eat goodies here and there as well because I am human and they are yummy.

    Congrats! I’m struggling to lose the same 20ish lbs. it’s a nightmare. I’m experimenting with something I didn’t want to do…a modified keto…adding butter and macadamia nuts, macadamia nut oil. I tried keto years ago and ate way too many nuts and got sick. Swore never again. So I am still eating carbs, just lower carb bread to slather the butter on…time will tell if this works. Ugh. ❤

    Hi everyone 👋🏼…I already told of my weight loss of, now 10lbs due to following Karis suggestions. I have been thrilled at the results of weight loss especially around my mid section which has been impossible to lose since I’ve been going through menopause. But, I’ve recently noticed improvement in my skin issues. Since menopause I’ve been itchy and bumpy had psoriasis start on my elbows and lots of skin tags and other bumps. I’m not sure what of the new vitamins and minerals have helped but the skin tags are falling off and dryness has improved tremendously!!!! I can’t believe it!!! Thank you so much for making me feel not so alone and actually suggesting things that really works!!! 👍🏻😃😃😃👍🏻
    Oh I’m taking….collagen, pre,
    Pro and post biotics, magnesium, B vitamin, D vitamin and a multi vitamin for 50+ women. I also take ACV each morning and have increased my water intake. I’m gonna also add castor oil to my regimen for only skincare. The only food intake I’ve changed was adding Blueberries 🫐, yogurt, bananas 🍌 and oatmeal . I do need to increase my activity and plan to. 😊😊😊

      I think the BMI charts are an outdated method of measuring ideal weight and health. You need that muscle mass for bone health and to burn more calories. I'll give you an example: I went to the gym with a lady that was frustrated that she couldn't get below 140. None of us could believe she weighed that because she was tiny (size 3), but she got on the scale and sure enough, she was 140 pounds. It was because of the weight training we were doing. Ever since then, I look at my clothing size and how I feel. I joke that I don't care what I weigh as long as I can fit into a 10 again. 😂 I hope you have much success and feel better than ever!

    My stress level would definitely rise if I didn’t do high level cardio! 😄 Low level cardio such as fast walking wasn’t doing anything for my health when I was in menopause so 8 years after menopause I started adding moderate to high level cardio back into my workouts. I felt better, had much more energy, had better cardiovascular fitness (lower blood pressure) and incredibly lower blood lipid levels that continue to go down each year. I’m in my mid 60s and highly recommend high intensity cardio for women after your physician’s OK. You might need to build up to it if you’re not used to it. The relationship between cortisol and cardio isn’t an issue for everyone.

      The fat burning collagen can be bought by itself or as part of a weight loss system called the Lean body system. My sister used the lean body system for 3 months and now uses the Trim on it’s own with Biocell Life and Axis Trebiotic. I use Trim chocolate, Biocell Skin and Axis Trebiotic. If you click on this affiliate link then click on collagen sciences and then Trim and scroll down a ways you’ll find it. It’s like 20 products down. I don’t know why Trim chocolate isn’t first.

    What probiotic do you use? I’m vegan so no-go for collagen. For 8 yrs I’ve had severe hot flashes/disrupted sleep/bladder issues and over all pain that intensified so bad (especially since I had my ovaries removed 4 years ago) that I caved in and started on bio-identical hormone therapy. The pain and sleep issues are 90% better. Still have hot flashes and bladder problems. My biggest issue is weight gain. I used to be extremely heavy (300lbs) but after a crazy long up and down weight loss journey I’ve maintained a healthy weight for 25yr. I’m WFPB Vegan, minimal to no gluten, processed or sugar PLUS I exercise every freaking day - and go swing/lindy hop dancing 3-5 x’s per month! Yet the scale is slowly creeping up. I’m lost as to what I should do.

This year , I'm on another diet which is Nutrisystem and stated to lose weight again but I am wondering when the losing weight will stop again and when the roller coaster will stop with my up and down weight and symptoms . very frustrated and times feel like giving up .
