Fat Loss School for Women Over 50 | Lose Weight After Menopause with Healthy Food, Intermittent Fasting, Carb Cycling, Macros & Mindset

Have you ever found yourself elbow-deep in a bag of chips and thought, “Wait, am I even hungry?” Or maybe you’ve tried to “be good” all day, only to eat your feelings the moment stress hits?

You're not broken—you're human. But understanding why we reach for food when we're not physically hungry is the first step to breaking the cycle.

That’s why I’ve invited a special guest—a health psychologist who specializes in emotional eating....

Are you drinking enough water? Before you say yes, let me hit you with a fact that blew my mind: The average American drinks nearly 40 gallons of soda per year, but less than half of what experts recommend in plain water. 🤯 And dehydration—even mild—can tank your energy, your mood, and yes, your fat loss progress. Today on Fat Loss School, we’re diving into Hydration 101—how much water you really need, why it’s a non-negotiable pa...

Do you feel like you are doing everything right - like eating very little and exercising - but your weight won’t budge? I have been there! I was a runner adding more & more miles to my routine but the scale was going in the wrong direction! It turns out I was likely under-fueled and over-exercising…so my body was stubbornly holding onto fat instead of releasing it to burn for fuel. Here’s my story that changed everything nearly...

Today I want to give you a behind-the-scenes peek at what a FASTer Way day actually looks like.

Because let’s be real—when people hear “intermittent fasting” or “strength training” or “macro tracking,” they sometimes picture a life that’s rigid, intense, time-consuming… and maybe even miserable.

That’s not what we do here.

The truth is, the FASTer Way lifestyle is super flexible, fits into your life whether you're retired or runnin...

I'm sharing the best gift I could ever give myself: a strong, lean body and a confident mindset heading into the final year of my 50s.

Today we'rehaving a little heart-to-heart about a common trap almost all of us fall into—scale obsession.

Tell me if this sounds familiar...

“I just want to get back to my high school weight.” “I was happiest at 135.” “If I could just lose 20 pounds, I’d feel good again.”

I get it. We've been trained to think our weight is everything. But here’s the truth:

💥 The number on the scale doesn't tell much about your body. What really ...

Today I want you to hear straight from the women who’ve been living this FASTer Way lifestyle.

These are my real clients. Women over 50 who were frustrated, stuck, or skeptical—until they found a sustainable strategy that actually worked with their bodies, not against them.

Intermittent fasting can be a very effective fat loss strategy. But if you're doing it wrong—or too aggressively—it might be backfiring on you.
