NutriStrong with Coach Bobbi

If your afternoon snack leaves you looking for something else 30 minutes later… it probably needs a little help. 👇

I’m Bobbi — a nutrition + strength coach helping women 40+ navigate perimenopause and postmenopause, lose fat, build muscle and feel more like themselves again.

And I’m probably not going to tell you to just eat less.

Especially when you’re hungry.

Instead, I want to help you build meals and snacks that actually satisfy you.

One of my favorite combinations? Protein + fiber. It helps make a snack more satisfying while giving your body the protein it needs to support muscle.

Here are 4 I keep on repeat:

🥒 Cottage cheese + cucumber + pumpkin seeds

🍎 Greek yogurt + berries + chopped almonds

🌯 Turkey + cheese + peppers + a pear

🥚 Hard-boiled eggs + an apple

Nothing fancy. Nothing you need to meal prep for three hours on Sunday. 😂

Just protein + fiber + foods you actually like.

Simple nutrition. Strength. Movement. Better habits. And support from other women navigating this season too.

Nobody warned our husbands this was a 10-year group project. 😂

Hot flashes. Sh*tty sleep. Mood swings. Brain fog. Random rage because someone is chewing too loud.

And just when he thinks, “Surely we’re almost through this…”

Sir. We could be YEARS away. 😂

Welcome to perimenopause.
Thoughts and prayers to everyone living in this house.

Tag the man who just found out. 😂

No perfect meals. No cutting carbs. No eating chicken and broccoli on repeat. 😂

Just a lot of protein, fiber, plants and balanced meals…with plenty of room for the foods I actually enjoy.

I’m Bobbi — a nutrition + strength coach helping women 40+ navigate perimenopause, lose fat, build muscle and feel more like themselves again.

And I’m probably not going to tell you to eat less or start another diet.

I’m going to help you figure out what you can ADD to your day to better support your body in this chapter of life.

Because the goal isn’t perfection. It’s having more energy, feeling strong, feeling good in your body and still enjoying your life.

And speaking of adding things… 👀

We have something fun starting in The Stronger Side for October! We’re kicking off a new monthly focus designed to help you actually practice some of these habits — with a whole group of women 40+ doing it together.

Follow for realistic nutrition + strength for women 40+.

The scale is moving…but that’s not even my favorite part of this client check-in. ❤️

We started simple: protein + fiber at breakfast.

Then she started planning lunches.
Keeping protein + fiber snacks on hand.
Paying attention to when she was actually hungry.

And now?

She told me she’s waaayyy less hungry and snacking less.

When she noticed dinner wasn’t always as balanced as she wanted, she didn’t throw out the whole day or decide she needed to “do better.”

She figured out what she could control and made a plan.

👏 THIS is the stuff I love.

Because sustainable fat loss after 40 isn’t about eating perfectly.

It’s learning how to fuel your body, understand what it’s telling you, and make choices that work in your actual life.

If you’re over 40 and tired of wondering what the heck you’re supposed to be doing with nutrition, strength and fat loss, come figure it out with us. ❤️

If fat loss feels harder after 40, your first instinct might be to eat LESS.

Less carbs. Less fat. Smaller portions. Fewer calories.

But eating too little can leave you hungry, craving snacks and eventually eating more than you planned.

Sometimes the answer isn’t eating less. It’s giving your body more of what it needs—especially protein, fiber, plants and healthy fats.

These help keep you full and satisfied, support muscle and make managing cravings easier.

Here are 8 foods I love for women over 40:

1. 🥚 Eggs — Protein + choline to support muscle, brain and nervous system health.

2. 🐟 Salmon — Protein + omega-3 fats for heart health.

3. 🥣 Greek yogurt + cottage cheese — Protein + calcium to support muscle and bone.

4. 🥦 Leafy greens + cruciferous veggies — Fiber, vitamins and lots of food volume to help fill your plate.

5. 🫐 Berries — Fiber, nutrients and something naturally sweet.

6. 🥩 Lean red meat — Protein, iron, B12 and zinc.

7. 🌱 Ground flax + pumpkin seeds — Fiber, healthy fats and important minerals.

8. 🥑 Avocado + olive oil — Healthy fats that add flavor and satisfaction to meals.

Are these foods going to magically melt belly fat or “balance your hormones”?

Nope.

But they can help you build meals that give your body what it needs, keep you satisfied and make hunger and cravings easier to manage during your weight loss journey.

And when you’re not fighting hunger all day, it’s a whole lot easier to stay consistent with the habits that support fat loss.

You don’t need to eat perfectly. You need a way of eating you can actually keep doing.
