EP 240. My 10 Pound Weight Gain: The Shocking Truth

Written By Jennifer Dent Brown

This episode is different. It’s stripped down, unedited, and deeply real.

I’m calling it a naked episode—just me, my mic, and the unfiltered truth about what really happened when I gained 10 pounds in 2024.

Despite teaching this work for over a decade… Despite knowing exactly what to do… My body stopped responding. I was exhausted. I was gaining weight in places I never had before. My sleep was wrecked. My stress was sky-high.

It wasn’t a food problem—it was a full-body reinvention moment.

In this episode, I walk you through how perimenopause became the catalyst for my transformation, what I did to heal my adrenals and reverse insulin resistance, and how the REINVENTION framework was born.

If you’ve lost weight before but can’t keep it off… If your body feels foreign and nothing seems to work anymore… If you’re tired of fixing your food and ready to fix the root—this is for you.

Inside This Episode, You’ll Learn:

  • The real reason I gained 10 pounds (and why it wasn’t about food)

  • How perimenopause and stress hormones hijack your weight loss

  • The identity shift required to reclaim your health in your 40s and beyond

  • Why traditional weight loss advice no longer works for your current season

  • How the Learn & Lose program is radically different from anything I’ve taught before

It’s time to step into something different. If you’re ready, let’s begin.
