Is your metabolism slowing down after 40? You’re not imagining it. Weight gain, stubborn belly fat, low energy, and disrupted sleep are all signs your metabolism and hormones have shifted—and sometimes, the very things you do to “fix it” are actually making it worse.
In this episode, I’m breaking down the 3 common mistakes women over 40 make that slow down metabolism—and what to do instead so you can finally lose weight, boost energy, and feel like yourself again.
Here’s what you’ll learn today:
Why focusing only on diet and exercise leaves your metabolism stuck
The real reason cutting calories doesn’t work anymore (and what to do instead)
Why one-size-fits-all plans like Weight Watchers, keto, or fasting don’t work after 40—and how to create a plan that’s right for your body now
You’ll also walk away with practical tips you can start using today, like how to improve your sleep rhythm, the best way to time your meals for fat loss, and why your metabolism needs more than just diet and workouts.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
