So funny how your pup follows your leg on the bike. Thanks Deborah 😂
I find it really hard to break the mindset that we need to exercise more or harder. Scaling back on exercise to lose belly fat has been difficult to wrap my head around. Of course "lazy me" loves the idea, but "disciplined me" keeps whispering that it's a lie. Don't believe it. One thing I've learned in my 50s is everything changes and I have to change how I do everything, so it really does make sense. I appreciate your videos and great information!
Best way to know is to test it! Even for 3 or 7 days. You'll already have a sense of it. We're in day 3 of a 12-day challenge right now .. and women usually report by day 4 they are already sleeping better and have more energy. Comments today were "I feel great" "This feels so good all day"
I have lost an inch in waistline in two weeks following your tips!
That's great! Wow! Happy for you!
Thanks for these tips! I’ll confess that the last one (bike desk) had me watching your adorable puppy more than paying attention to what you were saying 😊
RIght? He's a keeper but hasn't figured out he can't chew on a moving object!
Running is hard on the joints too, I might jog in between my fast pace walking but I’m not ego boosting my ego to be competing with younger women So I walk super fast And I’m fit and healthy at 50 and that is all matter And I have ZERO menopause symptoms.. I do my red clover, black cohosh and my chasteberry faithfully.. I went from 145 back to 130 in 3 months and I’m planning on staying and being consistent
It CAN be harder on joints. It depends entirely on the individual. Any science of long time runners doesn’t collectively show they are worse off than nonrunners. In the long term- collectively they have in fact many advantages. Thinking because its higher impact repetitively leaves out a lot of factors like form, build, technique… mileage, enjoyment/joy.
@@Flipping50TV I hear you but what I see in the hospital and I have to refer to the orthopedic surgeon beg the differs, so I jog slow pace or walk fast pace..I want to keep my joints as healthy as possible..I love and enjoy it but want to be wise as well :) Thank you for responding lovely
This was great….thanks so much!
Great info!
Beautiful adorable puppy!! OMG - soooo cute 😊
That's really fantastic, Debra. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much for your practical and very helpful advice. I'm 44 and already experiencing some pre-menopausal symptoms. By the way, your puppy is so cute!
Yes it was great information for me I’m 62 an experienced just what you explained . Never had the belly problem til now. So it totally on spot for me an thank you I got understanding now . And I love the table hike amazing idea . I’ve never seen or heard of one . God bless an thank you have a great day
Thanks for sharing!!
Love this info, totally respect and appreciate the intelligence and relatability in all these videos, on behalf of all post meno women…thank you !
Love your content! Thank you
The only improvement - pls improve the sound quality
Too much echo
❤
ACV I use periodically~ after today will use it more consistently! I meditate at least 40 min a day~ upto 2 hrs~ and getting out in nature are ways I reduce stress. Creative outlets like painting, writing, cooking also reduce stress. I'm curious about the desk bike & transforming my stationary beach rider to one! Great suggestion!
This is pure gold information- thank you Debra. You have helped me so much in my menopause life journey
Thank you for letting me know. I'd love to know how !
.
I try to do 20 jump squats every hour- my coworkers think I’m crazy and silly. Cindy
Who's got more energy and feels better?
At work? How old are you? Thx
@@sl4983 I just turned 60- I’m an ICU nurse so I try to go in an empty room to do the air squats and sometimes others join me!
Brilliant idea! I'm going to try it 💜
Hey ima try it too! Thank you
Good video, great guidance, but weird sound and strange shots (next to plug, highchair in background).
Simply a home
Thank you for the concise advice. The only thing I’m not sure about is the carb/protein info. As a vegetarian beans are often my protein 🤷♀️
And they have to be.. there are so few high protein plant sources. It does get confusing and if you can make it work and keep muscle and bone density, great. Track them and monitor how you're doing!

Debra this video answered my question. I am losing weight overall and I see my fluffly belly and I do not like it. I am going to wait until I lose all the weight then I will do crunches. Thank you for all the important info.
No more crunches!!
.
Your fur baby ❤ though so cute
Where did you get the desk bike from? Thanks
Details right here: www.flippingfifty.com/deskbike It's heavy, well made but I managed to put it together myself in about 10 minutes ... and it is super high quality and QUIET!
What is table hiking
Hi Debra. Do you have a link for or informative for the bike? A name would be great
HTTPS://www.flippingfifty.com/deskbike
I can’t find the table hike ideal
I'm guessing any cardio movement after a meal is good if we don't have the option of going outside? Aerobics or rebounder? Also, what about ACV gummies or pills? Don't think I can do the drink, lol.
Yes- move any way you like. You're equivalent of "walking" ! Thanks for asking this! Pills do get it into the gut. It may not help quite as much because of the sour effect on helping create gastric juices but it's very well proven to support similarly!
I do some jumping jacks, squats, knee lifts. Get the blood moving
I already did the apple sider vinager and walking
Fantastic! Anything new you will try?
.
I need a dog.
Absolutely. They are truly man’s best friend!
Which CGM do you use?
This one: www.flippingfifty.com/myglucose it allows my clients and groups to share results with me.
Can't stand apple cider vinegar makes me sick😢
Oh my gosh the d🐕 ❤
Doggy wants some attention 😂
Puppers is helping her pedal! Haha
Strength training and moving your body are fantastic, as is being mindful of stress and hormone levels such as insulin and cortisol. These are all important for health, especially in menopause.
For the reduction of belly fat, I would have thought that our dietary habits are more impactful than anything else though. You can't outrun a bad diet, as the saying goes.
Anecdotes aren't relevant for others but keeping an eye on one's own experiences is vital. Personally, the ONLY impact on my own belly fat is food consumption - eating excessive calories increases belly fat and restricting calories reduces belly fat. Stress (unless it leads to eating more) does not increase my belly fat at all. 🤔
What affects me is less than optimal sleep. That's what increases the appetite in the first place.
@@sl4983 Yes, me, too. Poor sleep induces cravings and hunger! I think this is very common.
Sometimes, I eat when I'm thirsty, too, due to misreading the signs and not maintaining hydration levels. 😁
Always. The domino effect is: cortisol, insulin, ghrelin, leptin.. and that's just by afternoon the day after. If it's a pattern it impacts your ability to product testosterone and growth hormone - key for muscle. So, you're storing more fat and losing muscle due to sleep issues. It's a viscious cycle- and becomes the #1 pillar we work on with clients/students at Flipping 50.
Yes- it's the ghrelin causing the cravings .. and leptin (satiety hormone )not telling you you're full. These are impacted by the cortisol chaos the day after sleep deprivation.
