EPISODE 63: How G L P 1s Changed Her Life After Ea EPISODE 63: How G L P 1s Changed Her Life After Early Menopause & Breast Cancer with Lois Essenfeld @loisessenfeld In this episode, I’m joined by Lois Essenfeld, a certified Institute for Integrative Nutrition Health Coach and Functional Diagnostic Nutrition trainee, to talk about her long health journey through severe endometriosis, medically induced menopause, hormone-positive breast cancer, difficult menopause symptoms, and eventually discovering G L P 1 and p€p tide therapy. Lois was diagnosed with severe endometriosis in her 20s and went through surgery that removed most of one ovary. She was then placed into medical menopause with Lupron and spent more than 20 years on birth control. Years later, at age 48, she was diagnosed with hormone-positive breast cancer and underwent a double mastectomy. Her experience with Tamoxifen was extremely difficult, and although switching medications helped mentally and emotionally, she continued to struggle with hot flashes, night sweats, joint pain, inflammation, weight gain, and feeling disconnected from her body. Because of her history, hormone replacement therapy wasn’t an option for her. Then she discovered functional health, FDN, and eventually G L P 1 therapy. After starting a low dose of tirzepatide, Lois noticed a dramatic improvement in her joint pain and inflammation within days, followed by improvements in her hot flashes, night sweats, and overall quality of life. Now, Lois is passionate about learning more about p€p tides and helping other women navigate their own health journeys through midlife. In this episode, we cover: ✅ Lois’s experience with severe endometriosis and why it took years to get the right diagnosis ✅ Being put into medical menopause at just 26 ✅ Her fertility journey and becoming a mom after losing most of one ovary ✅ Her experience with hormone-positive breast cancer at 48 ✅ Why Tamoxifen was so difficult for her ✅ Switching from Tamoxifen to anastrozole ✅ Hot flashes, night sweats, joint pain, inflammation, and weight gain during menopause 🌿 Follow Lois at @letitgowellness and visit the link in her bio to download her free 5-page Healthy Aging Roadmap. ⭐️ comment “PODCAST” to get it!
I’d start writing down what’s been changing becaus I’d start writing down what’s been changing because the second someone asks when my sleep, cravings, energy, hair, anxiety, libido or body composition changed, I’m going to forget everything I’ve experienced since 2019. I’d ask for copies of my labs and look at the actual numbers. I want to see my ferritin, thyroid markers, fasting insulin, A1C, vitamin D, B12 and sex hormones because “everything’s normal” doesn’t help me if I still feel awful. I’d ask whether hormone support makes sense for me, and I wouldn’t wait until every perimenopause symptom became unbearable before bringing it up. I’d train to build muscle, pay attention to how I feel after eating and stop buying random supplements without knowing what they actually do. And yes, I’d consider a p3p tide if it were appropriate for me. I’d just want a plan for protein, protecting my muscle, managing side effects and what happens next. If a provider listened to all of this and still told me to “eat less,” I’d ask for my copay back and leave lol. If you want me to help you make sense of what’s happening instead of sending you down another internet rabbit hole, comment EDIT below and I’ll DM you The Body Edit. 👀
Most of my girlies come to me saying 😭 “I’ve trie Most of my girlies come to me saying 😭 “I’ve tried everything”. “My doctor says my labs are normal” “I don’t know what’s happening to me”. Bless it, sister. I know what’s happening to you. That’s why I run a DUTCH test and HTMA on every client that joins my Easy Perimenopause program. The hormone problems reveal themselves. Then we go to work. 100% I won’t let you fail 🤗 ⭐️ comment “FINALLY”.
I didn’t choose this life. Okay, yes I did. I didn’t choose this life. Okay, yes I did.
Estrogen gets most of the attention when progester Estrogen gets most of the attention when progesterone is often overlooked entirely. Yet healthy progesterone levels support deeper sleep, a calmer mood, more predictable cycles, fewer menopause symptoms, and a greater sense of stability throughout the month. Supporting progesterone naturally isn’t about adding one trendy supplement. Your body needs consistent nourishment, stable blood sugar, adequate protein, quality sleep, strength training, and enough recovery. The outcome goes far beyond fat loss. You feel calmer, sleep better, have consistent energy, understand what your body needs, and finally stop feeling like your hormones are running your entire life. If you’re ready to feel like yourself again, comment EDIT below, and I’ll DM you The Body Edit🔥🔥
I was on a call with a new client yesterday and wi I was on a call with a new client yesterday and within 10 minutes I knew her ferritin was too low. She was exhausted most of the day, freezing in a normal room temperature, and losing more hair than usual. She’d decided she was getting older and needed to be more disciplined, which is convenient because women have been trained to blame themselves before asking whether anyone has run the right labs. Her ferritin was low. No amount of eating less, adding cardio, or pretending coffee is breakfast was going to fix what we found. You can follow a “perfect” weight-loss plan and still struggle when your body doesn’t have what it needs to produce energy, train properly, recover, and maintain muscle. This is exactly why I created The Body Edit. I’m not handing you another meal plan and telling you to work harder. I’m teaching you the exact process I use to identify what’s interfering with your results and what to do next, because guessing your way through midlife clearly isn’t working. If you want the only program where I put this entire process in one place, comment EDIT and I’ll send it to you. 🫶🏼
EPISODE 62: How G L P 1s Helped Her Lose 150+ Poun EPISODE 62: How G L P 1s Helped Her Lose 150+ Pounds After Bariatric Surgery with Alissa Meisel @alissaameisel In this episode, I’m joined by Alissa Meisel, an occupational therapist, board-certified health and wellness coach, and founder of Meisel Health, to talk about her incredible 150+ pound weight-loss journey and how bariatric surgery, G L P 1s, p€p tide therapy, and lifestyle changes became different tools along the way. Alissa has spent years struggling with her weight, dieting, exercising, and trying to figure out why nothing seemed to work long-term. After infertility treatments contributed to significant weight gain, she ultimately underwent sleeve gastrectomy in 2020 and lost more than 100 pounds. Years later, despite continuing to exercise, prioritize protein and hydration, and do everything she had been doing to maintain her weight, she began gaining weight again. That’s when she began exploring G L P 1s and p€p tide therapy, which became another tool in her health journey and helped her lose an additional 30 pounds. In this episode, we talk about the physical AND emotional side of weight loss, why mindset matters, what happens after bariatric surgery, and how feeling comfortable and confident in your body can impact every area of your life, including your marriage and intimacy. In this episode, we cover: ✅ Alissa’s lifelong struggle with dieting, weight, and an all-or-nothing mindset ✅ How her college years changed her relationship with food and exercise ✅ Her experience with infertility treatments and gaining over 100 pounds ✅ Why she ultimately chose sleeve gastrectomy in January 2020 ✅ What life was really like after bariatric surgery, including severe complications and the mental/emotional challenges she experienced ✅ The lack of support she felt after surgery and why she created a roadmap for other women ✅ Regaining 20 pounds years after losing more than 100 pounds ✅ Why training for a half marathon didn’t produce the results she expected ✅ How G L P 1 therapy and p€p tide therapy became another tool in her journey Comment “PODCAST” 🎙️ Or listen to “the Peptides for Women Podcast” on Apple/ Spo
