#147 - 50+ Lbs Down In Menopause With Hashimoto’s - Elaine’s Story
Episode 148
Thursday, 11 December, 2025
Welcome back to the Tandem Talk Show with Coach G — in this inspiring episode we welcome returning guest Elaine (previously featured on episode 138) to share the next chapter of her transformation. Elaine candidly walks through the major obstacles she faced before joining Tandem, including surgical menopause, a Hashimoto’s thyroid diagnosis, vitamin deficiencies, and a severe car accident that left her in a wheelchair for 10 weeks. Despite these hurdles, she describes how she lost over 50 pounds through Tandem’s coaching and structured programming. Coach G and Elaine discuss the phases of the program she completed — fat loss phases and the Metabolic Reset Phase (MRP) — and how MRP helped reignite her metabolism, increase calories strategically, build muscle, reduce hunger, and make the weight sustainable. Elaine credits Coach Gus for rebuilding her confidence and making exercise enjoyable, and she describes how movement, strength training, and better nutrition reshaped her body and life. The conversation covers practical changes that produced results: simple, trackable daily goals (calories, protein, water, steps), accessible workouts (starting from home and progressing to the gym), meal strategies and prep, and the mental shift from “living to eat” to “eating to live.” Elaine also reflects on the unexpected social and emotional benefits — new friendships, increased energy, improved cardiovascular fitness, and even signing up for a 10K. This episode offers encouragement and clear takeaways for listeners, especially women navigating menopause or thyroid issues who feel weight loss is impossible. Elaine emphasizes readiness, self-investment, following a coach, and small consistent steps. Coach G closes by inviting listeners to reach out to learn more about Tandem’s Metabolic Reset Program; you can contact Garrett at garrett@tandemnutrition.com for a free call to discuss goals and whether the program could be a fit.
