What if weight loss didn’t have to mean cutting carbs, counting every calorie, or starting over every Monday?
Today’s guest, Amanda Nighbert, RD, is here to show you a better way.
A registered dietitian with over 20 years of clinical experience, Amanda is the creator of the wildly popular LEAN program (Living Energized and Nourished), which helps women in midlife lose weight in a way that’s actually sustainable—no extreme diets, no all-or-nothing thinking.
In this episode, we talk about:
Why 1200-calorie diets and low-carb rules don’t work long-term
How to fuel fat loss with realistic, everyday meals
The protein mistake most women are making
And how to stabilize cortisol and insulin for lasting results
Amanda breaks it all down clearly and realistically—so you can stop spinning your wheels and start supporting your body in a way that works for this season of life.
