A comprehensive, medically-tested eating and lifestyle program—including 40 delicious recipes—to balance nutrition and sustain weight loss, tailored to women in perimenopause or menopause
Women store more fat and have a tougher time converting calories than men do. In midlife, these differences are amplified by hormonal fluctuation, and most women gain stubborn and harmful weight—especially around the belly—without having altered their routine. Suddenly the standard advice to eat less and exercise more is no longer the solution!
A practicing OB/GYN and nutritional expert, Dr. Mary Claire Haver found herself in this exact predicament, so she set out to develop a diet that would meet her needs. More than 68,000 women have now found success in Dr. Haver's unique plan for permanent weight loss by following her three recommended strategies:
• Fuel Refocus: To get the body to burn fat as fuel, women now need 70% healthy fats, 20% lean protein, and 10% quality carbohydrates.
• Intermittent Fasting: 16 hours of fasting (overnight) with a flexible 8-hour eating window coaxes the body to draw energy from stored fat.
• Anti-inflammatory Nutrition: Now is the time to limit added sugars and processed carbs and layer in anti-inflammatory foods like leafy greens, olive oil, berries, nuts, and tomatoes.
With these three principles working together synergistically, women will lose stubborn weight as well as enjoy newfound energy, better sleep, less brain fog, and fewer hot flashes. Featuring forty delicious recipes, easy-to-follow meal plans, week-at-a-glance shopping lists, and success stories of women who have changed their lives on this plan, The Galveston Diet—named for Dr. Haver's hometown—will revolutionize the conversation around weight loss in perimenopause and menopause, and help women gain health benefits that last a lifetime.
