"A kick-ass book on menopause. Do yourself a favor and pick up this
gem."-Dr. Jen Gunter, bestselling author of The Vagina Bible and
The Menopause Manifesto Menopause and perimenopause are no laughing
matter but that doesn't stop Amanda Thebe from approaching her 50s
with a sense of humor. In this hilarious and personal account, the
fitness trainer shares how she lost weight, dealt with her
depression, improved her sleep, and overhauled her diet to survive
and thrive during menopause. Now you can, too! Includes a Bonus
Strength Training Guide for Women Over 40 At a time when menopause
has become an urgent topic of public discussion, with the likes of
Michelle Obama revealing their struggles for the first time,
personal trainer Amanda Thebe shares her journey with bold and
big-hearted writing that will be familiar to readers of Glennon
Doyle. Readers will come away from the book with: A better
understanding of your own hormones and how they factor in menopause
and your overall health; Confidence to speak your truth about your
menopause symptoms to your doctor, other health professionals, your
family, and friends; Zero bull-sh*t tips for nutrition, fitness,
vagina health, sex, and more. Amanda Thebe was working as a
personal trainer and fitness coach when, at age 43, she started
experiencing debilitating exhaustion, dizziness, and depression.
The busy mother of two boys was used to traveling the world and
climbing mountains. Now, she struggled to climb out of bed. After
several failed doctor's appointments, Thebe saw her gynaecologist,
who finally named the source of her struggles: perimenopause, the
period of 5-10 years before menopause, when a woman's fluctuating
estrogen levels put her at risk of depression, anxiety, headaches,
and more ailments related to female hormone health. Empowered by
information, Thebe began her journey back to her former self,
overhauling her approach to diet, mental health, and exercise. In
Menopocalypse, she explains how to deal with migraines, hot
flashes, weight gain, exhaustion, poor sleep, vaginal dryness, and
mood swings-offering tips that have worked for her and others. She
shares information about hormone therapy. She even shares her own
strength-training routine, complete with a suggested workout
schedule, easy-to-follow instructions, and pictures of herself
doing the exercises, so you can feel empowered, fit, and ready to
tackle the day. Menopause isn't fun, sexy, or cool, and a woman
might spend one-third of her life in it-but that doesn't mean women
should suffer in silence without support. Let the outspoken and
honest Amanda Thebe be your guide to surviving-and thriving-during
menopocalypse.
