Who this is for

If any of this sounds like you, you're in the right place.

In perimenopause or menopause

You feel the shift and the old rules no longer work.

Watching your metabolism slow

You want to eat like a grown woman, not a rabbit.

Done with restrictive diets

Keto, fasting, 1,200-calorie plans, celery juice — over it.

You want high-protein food that actually tastes good

Not chicken and rice on repeat. Real food, real flavor.

Cooking for a family, not just yourself

You want meals the whole table will eat, not a separate 'diet plate' for you and something different for everyone else.

The problem

You did everything right but nothing's changing

I've spent 25+ years coaching women who've tried everything to feel better in their bodies. Keto, fasting, celery juice, the 1,200-calorie hamster wheel. Most of them were starving, stressed out, and struggling to lose fat even when they were doing everything right.

The truth is, when your body feels punished, it holds on. It stops trusting you. Cravings ramp up. Sleep gets worse. Fat loss stalls. And you end up thinking there is something wrong with you when really there is something wrong with the rules you have been handed.

Why cottage cheese

One of the most GLP-1 activating foods on the planet.

When your protein, fat, and carbs are balanced, your blood sugar stabilizes, your hormones calm down, and your body finally feels safe enough to let go of fat. That is macro balance. It is the foundation of everything I coach.

Cottage cheese is loaded with slow-digesting protein and the exact amino acids your body uses to make its own GLP-1, the hormone behind satiety, blood sugar control, and cravings.

And yes, I know. I used to say "I don't like cottage cheese" too. Then I started turning it into bagels, bread, pizza, cookies, and dips, and suddenly I could not stop.

No shots, no restriction, no crazy rules. Just real food doing what it was designed to do.

Ham and cheese biscuits shared by Marla A. West

Protein-packed banana bread. Moist, cozy, and just sweet enough. Perfect for breakfast, snacks, or 'just one more slice' moments. I couldn't wait to eat a slice and it is sssooo good.

Cottage cheese pancakes shared by Genia Ainsworth

Made these delicious cottage cheese pancakes from Simone Lovell's 'Queen of Cottage Cheese Cookbook.' Xmas breakfast then I froze the rest for later. Like New Year's Day.

Cottage cheese bagels shared by Megan Randall

Well, made these cottage cheese bagels a little skinny but they still taste so good. And I promise the recipes are much prettier in @simonenlovell's 'Queen of Cottage Cheese' cookbook!

Protein pancake bowl meal prep shared by Melanie Gagnon-Kirby

Made this Protein Pancake Bowl (6 servings) from a new cookbook I just recently got, 'They Call Me the Queen of Cottage Cheese.' I have made this recipe 3 times already and it is so good, and it makes my mornings so much easier to be able to prep 6 servings for the week ahead of time.

Golden protein waffles shared by Genia Ainsworth

OK, this is the Golden Protein Waffles from Simone Lovell's 'They Call Me the Queen of Cottage Cheese' cookbook!

Cranberry nut cottage cheese bread shared by Terri Fisher

This is my Cranberry Nut Cottage Cheese Bread. It's slightly modified from the original recipe, I added cranberries, pumpkin seeds, hemp seeds, cinnamon, one scoop of vanilla protein powder, and swapped the rolled oats.

Cottage cheese parfait shared by Sonya Lowe

Cottage cheese parfait from the cookbook for breakfast today! Used Simone Lovell's superfood granola. Nothing processed and so good for me!

Questions

Everything you might be wondering.

Yes. Every recipe is built around protein, fat, and fiber to help stabilize blood sugar and support the hormonal shifts that happen in your 40s and 50s. This is exactly the way I coach my clients through peri and menopause.
I hear this all the time; I used to say it myself. Every recipe transforms cottage cheese into something you'd never guess it was in, blended into batters, folded into dough, baked into bagels, bread, pizza, and cookies. Most people can't taste it at all, they just notice how much fuller and more satisfied they feel.
No special equipment required. A blender or food processor helps with a few recipes, but everything can be made with the basics you already have in your kitchen.
Yes. Every recipe includes a short ingredient list and clear step-by-step instructions, no advanced cooking skills or professional techniques needed.
Free recipes online are scattered, inconsistent, and rarely built around macro balance. This cookbook is 100 recipes specifically designed around the protein-fat-carb balance that supports fat loss and hormone health for women 40+, tested and organized so you're never guessing.
It's a digital download, a file you can read on your phone, tablet, computer, or e-reader, with a quick-jump glossary so you can find any recipe in seconds.
A print version may be available in the future. Digital buyers will get a discount on it if and when it's released.
