If you’ve done everything right -- tracking, fasting, skipping the wine, saying no to carbs -- and still somehow gaining weight every year… this one’s for you.
In this off-the-cuff, unscripted episode, I’m breaking down the three real problems we have to solve for lasting midlife weight loss:
Weight Gain (We MUST stop this first.)
Weight Loss (But not the old way because harder dieting and more cardio isn't the answer.)
Sustainability (Because your life is not meant to be a series of never-ending diet plans.)
We talk behaviour change. We talk biochemical change (which I argue is actually EASIER than changing behaviour). We talk about why a $27 PDF plan downloaded from your fave IG influencer isn’t the solution. We talk about why maintenance must be built into the weight loss program itself (not a separate program you do afterward). And why the real fix takes actual critical thinking and problem solving.
I’ll share stories from my own successful weight loss journey, and real client conversations that’ll make you rethink what’s really keeping the weight on.
If you’ve ever looked at an old photo of yourself and thought “I hated my body back then too…”
If you’re sick of miracle-hopping and ready to actually solve this…
If you want to eat real food like a grown-ass woman and never diet again…
Give it a listen!
