84 thoughts on “How to BANISH Menopausal BELLY FAT Forever!”
Thank you for repeating your information in many places so that I finally get it 🙂 Journaling definitely is an eye opener for me about my stress. Many things stress me which I had NO idea that they did. I appreciate having you as a friend for this journey I have started alomost 20 months ago now. Many people have noticed changes in me both physically and mentally.
Thank you, Pahla! This was sooo good! 💗 The stress/mental stuff is the hardest for me—the hardest to unpack and get rid of, bur gotta keep chipping away at it. I feel I’m doing all the rest “right”, but the stress/mind management is the toughest piece of the puzzle! 😕
You told me exactly what I needed to hear. This video is me to nth degree! I am 55 and have am enormous amount of stress in my life. The stress stems from family and their choices. This is most difficult to put in perspective. Menopause has changed everything. It’s like I woke up one day with 10 pounds of belly fat.
Oops, lol juggling with my phone. As I saying, I journal now but only when someone caused a hulk reaction. Honestly I’m afraid to write about how I feel every day because I am afraid of what is lurking after all these decades. Listening to your words helped me think about journaling differently. The way I write in it now isn’t necessarily good. I am going to try writing every day (time!). I am going to listen to this video a few more times to absorb your wise words and attempt to change my 55 year old cemented mind set relating to stress management. Thank you Pahla.
AMEN. I just got asked this question again for the umteenth over the weekend. Thank you so much for the succinct message 😘
This is so helpful. I’m 55 and joined OrangeTheory Fitness. I felt fantastic right after the workouts, but then I would be on the sofa for the next 2 days, unable to move or think. I didn’t recognize myself when I had to quit two months later. The belly fat I gained was unbelievable! I was so inflamed because it was too stressful for my body. I’m so happy I’ve found you and that you validated my experience. My shape is starting to return to normal…
Bless you, Pahla. I’m just shy of 48 but have been in early menopause since 35!! The belly happened this year along with a bunch of other stress weight gain and I feel like you and your videos are my new best friend. Thank you x 100!
This was an eye opener for me! Like you mentioned, I was wondering where this all-of-a-sudden belly fat came from. Actually, I really didn’t think it was belly fat (not sure what I thought it was…) but I am now facing reality that it is. After watching this very helpful video, I feel the cause is stress. Definitely something I need to work on, more than I have been. Thanks Pahla!
Pahla is so amazing! It’s great how she can give it to us straight but also can be encouraging.
Thank you ! I started incorporating yoga and wow!! It has really made a difference in my mid section and mindset:)
Thanks for this video. I’m 54. A year ago I started eating healthy and exercising. I’ve lost 75 lbs. Everyone keeps telling me how difficult it is for over-50 women to lose weight. Not that hard honestly! I’m slim everywhere but my stomach! 🙄
Belly fat can be such a pain at any age. At 50 I’ve been able to continue with the same practices )similar to what you mentioned) that helped me lose 60 pounds and slim down my stomach. My belly is the flattest it’s been, ever.
I went off dairy one time and my stomach became flat as a washboard.
Oh my! I was about to start there I wonder if it would do the same to me? Part of reason I wanted to go is this new mid section weight creeping up at 45
@Amy Brevard I’d definitely try it out. I felt so good afterward. If you feel exhausted after, it might not be for you!
@Alma Burns Really? How long did you go off the dairy?
@C This was years ago & I don’t remember exactly. I just remember noticing one day with amazement how flat my stomach was. Milk contains lactose, which is a sugar, & it kept me bloated. I need to go off dairy again!
Who else is going through menopause, and is a single parent raising teen boys going through puberty and helping care for againg parents and pets? This is one wild roller coaster!
@Ronnie King especially if you were just diagnosed with type ll diabetes
I love your advice, you’re more realistic than others I follow in yt. Thank you. Now I have something I can share to my friends who’s going through the same concern as me “ the belly fats of menopause “
Same same … Except I am 48 and have been going crazy for over 6 yrs. The past year and a half I packed on 30+ pounds. Lovely flappy belly muffin top that won’t stay in my underwear. It has to flop over the waist band and let me know it’s still very much there.
@Alma Burns totally! And white flour.
I love 30 minute workouts. Just before the cortisol starts pumping. I sprinkle short workouts throughout the day. Peloton is perfect for this. 10 minute Peloton in the morning and another 20 minutes later in the day. I have my own spin bike so some days are just a spin! No one watching! Take a break when you need it!
So helpful. I joined a 6 week shred last year and the amount of exercises I did was not normal for me. I noticed my belly started getting bigger!!! I eat well and exercise normally so it’s the stress and lack of sleep contributed to this. Thanks 😀😀
Going through menopause at 41. I’m over the extra pounds! The belly fat just appeared one day. I love that more are talking about menopause and how to combat over it!
Thanks pahla that was not what I was expecting but it was brilliant. It made so much sense , I feel more confident about my exercising routine now and less stressed already . I look forward to trying your exercise class.😊
Tressey, May I ask what program you have utilized that created success for you?
@Teresa White hey, hope your day is going well. Pahla provides solid advice, stick to the basics: eat mostly whole foods, provide the body with movement, manage stress and sleep.
Consistency, patience and creating lifestyle habits to support the version of myself I wanted is the “program” that helped me reach and sustain my goals.
Thank you Pahla..I needed this video. Wise words to live by and get healthy
This is so validating for me as I was always thin and trim until menopause hit at 49 and then the weight gain came in the midsection. I agree about the stress levels. I truly believe that mental health is health.
Oh yeah, me too! It has been so hard for me to come to grips with this belly fat and bingo wings! Menopause itself wasn’t so bad for me. But about 2 years after…. the fat hit. My weight is nearly the same too. I mean, what the heck, body?!
@Tressey Adams I’m doing all that and still getting fat. Only thing I can’t control is my toxic job.
@Samantha Thompson A toxic work environment, that is tough and sounds stressful. What do you find yourself doing that allows you to function in such an environment?

I’m going through the same unfortunately. God Bless you.
@Carla by the Lake Lol I feel you.
Same here 😠😠
I think you might have just identified my cause of belly fat: STRESS. I eat well and exercise regularly, and I am overall happy with my weight and proportion, except my belly. Listening to you makes me realize that chronic stress might be what is sabotaging my waist line.
Tip to self, work on ya mental-stress level.
49 Going into menopause and raising my 4 year old. She is keeping me young and going.
Oh my , that’s to much . Hold on dear Karen ! Make it your purpose, you’ll do what you have to do and later I’m sure you can relax .
I love this video, thank you!! I think this is happening to me prior to menopause. When I hit 39, I started having trouble with muscle recovery. I’m probably working out too hard and feeling stressed. 😣 I will definitely check out more of your videos! You seem so lovely.
That’s what happened to me!!
I thought I was an outlier. Menopause at 43.
Me. All the above.
Yess
I hv same issue
Wow
I have been getting stressed about getting fat!!
I’m just 41 and and peri menopausal the weight glue struggle is real!
