Getting Kind of Old

My gut needs healing again.

I noticed that I did up my sugar intake in the past few months, and my gut is not invincible, though I wish it was. Plus, during perimenopause, hormones fluctuate, which then causes differences in cortisol levels, as well as differences in insulin resistance. 

It's recommended to:
-Do strength training
-Up protein intake
-Decrease carb intake
-Exercise regularly

So I think I'm going to take these guidelines more seriously. I got too confident b/c my energy was really awesome for a bit there. But now I need to make some lifestyle changes once more, especially if I want to not gain too much weight during this next phase of my life.
