Celebrating Menopause with Tracy Slavik

The Girlfriend Doctor w/ Dr. Anna Cabeca

Struggling with weight, hormonal imbalances, or finding the right path to better health can feel overwhelming, but Tracy Slavik’s story is living proof that transformation is possible. After battling polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) and being over 100 pounds overweight—not just once, but twice, she turned her life around by embracing the Keto-Green lifestyle.

In this episode, Tracy opens up about her personal struggles, including infertility and emotional eating, and how the guidance of hormone expert Dr. Angeli Akey led her to lasting change. Her journey offers hope and practical knowledge for anyone seeking to reclaim their health.

Learn how Tracy shifted her mindset from “living to eat” to “eating to live” and how monitoring her alkalinity levels became a game-changer in her wellness journey. Her honest reflections on weight gain, losing control, and finding the Keto-Green program again will inspire you to take charge of your health. Plus, discover the importance of community and support systems when tackling such challenges, and how Tracy found the strength to persevere.

Memorable Quotes:

"I told myself I had no more excuses. I'm done with school. And that would have always been my excuse. I'm studying. I'm doing this. This is my priority. My health became my priority. And I think at that point too, I was just tired of being overweight. And once I started losing the weight, and not only were other people noticing, but I was just noticing how much better I felt. And that for me was the motivator." [00:07:57] – Tracy Slavik

"I'm 45 and I feel the best that I ever have. I think that age is a number, and it doesn't matter what age you are. It doesn't matter where you're at right now. Just start. Take it one day at a time and focus just on you and your journey." [00:31:26] – Tracy Slavik
