@dedicated2fit: You gotta be smart about your choices in perimenopause. If you’re a woman over 40 trying to lose fat, your protein intake matters more than ever. 💪🏼✨ As estrogen declines, we naturally lose muscle mass — and muscle is what keeps your metabolism strong. The goal? Prioritize lean, high-quality protein sources that support fat loss, muscle retention, and hormone health. #busymoms #fitafter40 #highprotein #midlifewomen
