Ever blamed yourself for not being able to lose weight? In this eye-opening episode, Dr. Orlena dismantles the guilt and shame around weight loss struggles by revealing why it's literally not your fault. 

Living in what experts call an "obesogenic society" stacks the odds against you from the start. Dr. Orlena explains why the conventional "calories in, calories out" approach fails so many women, especially those over 40, and how hormones like insulin and cortisol are the hidden saboteurs of your weight loss efforts.

Instead of deprivation and constant hunger, discover a revolutionary approach focused on properly fueling your body. Learn the specific fiber and protein targets that can transform your metabolism without counting a single calorie, and why timing your meals and workouts can make all the difference.

If you've tried everything and still struggle, this episode offers both the scientific explanation and practical solutions you've been searching for. Stop blaming yourself and start understanding what your body really needs to thrive.
