Welcome to Thinner Peace and Menopause and Beyond. This is Dr. Deb Butler, Master Life, Weight Coach, and Your Coach. Today is episode number 59. And you know what I'm going to talk about today? I'm going to talk to you about what's so good about

menopause. And I'm calling this episode menopositivity. Stay tuned. Hi, everybody. How are you today?

It's a beautiful day in Belize. I tell you that every single time I do this,

but every single time I do it, it is a beautiful day in Belize. The temperature ranges between 82 and

87 now because it's getting warmer as opposed to 82 and 83.

That's just the way it is every single day.

And it's always breezy because I'm on the beach and the Caribbean Sea.

Oh, my goodness.

You know, it's turquoise. It's just breathtaking against the beautiful blue sky and the green palm trees. That's what I'm

looking at right now. That's where I'm talking to you from. And this is where my inspiration is coming

from. So here's the deal. This is what I want to talk to you about today. And I'll tell you why I want to

talk about it. Many of you know that I just finished a class called the Science of the Mind and Body

where we really worked a lot with anti-inflammatory foods. We worked a lot with our minds,

why in the heck we eat when we're not hungry, how to handle our emotions, how to feel our

emotions, instead of eating our emotions. You know, all the things that you listened on the

podcast only that directly get coached by me. And I have to tell you, that's pretty fascinating

and pretty eye-opening for all of us. But this is one of the

things that I noticed, and I might have talked to you about this before, is that I would say all of

the women, basically who were in this class, were really pretty angry at their bodies due to

menopause and the symptoms of menopause.

And of course, probably maybe one of the reasons that you listen to this podcast, and I would

say the major reason why all of these women joined this class is because of weight gain.
