Stop. Dieting. Forever.™ | Fat Loss for Women over 40
Stop. Dieting. Forever.™ is the weight loss podcast for women over 40 who are ready to stop fixing food noise and start changing what actually drives weight gain: emotional eating, stress, self-sabotage, and inconsistent habits. Hosted by Jennifer Dent Brown, Certified Health and Life Coach, this show is based on over a decade of coaching women since 2014. Jennifer has coached hundreds of women to lose weight, rebuild self-trust, and create sustainable change. Here’s the promise: This podcast helps you become the woman who naturally keeps the weight off. Not through dieting. Not through willpower. Not through starting over. Most weight loss advice starts with what to eat. This starts with you. Because your healthiest body doesn’t come from a better meal plan. It comes from learning how to regulate emotions without food, build consistency without perfection, and create habits that fit your real life. Inside each episode, you’ll learn how to: Stop emotional eating at the source Break all-or-nothing cycles Build habits that actually stick Support fat loss during perimenopause and menopause Reduce stress that blocks weight loss Create sustainable routines Become the woman who keeps the weight off This approach supports women losing weight naturally and women using GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, or Zepbound. If you’re on a GLP-1 and still struggling with emotional eating or consistency, this podcast shows you how to build the mindset and habits medication doesn’t teach. This isn’t about willpower. It’s about identity, nervous system regulation, and simple daily practices that compound. That’s what gets results. This podcast is for women in their 40s, 50s, and beyond who want sustainable weight loss without dieting, restriction, or food drama. You’ll learn: Why weight loss feels harder after 40 How women over 40 lose weight without dieting How to stop emotional and stress eating What habits matter most for fat loss How hormones affect weight loss How to maintain results long-term But this podcast isn’t meant to be something you only listen to. It’s meant to be something you apply. That’s why Jennifer also offers the Stop. Dieting. Forever.™ Newsletter, a complimentary weekly companion to the podcast focused on turning insight into action. Each week, you’ll receive an episode guide that includes: Practical weight loss takeaways Simple reflection prompts One next step you can actually use So instead of consuming and moving on, you start implementing and changing. If you’re ready for real support to lose weight without dieting, you’re in the right place. Join the Stop. Dieting.

EP 286. How to Fix Sleep, Hormones, & Stress in 12 Months So You Can Feel Amazing In Your Body Again
I went to my gynecologist with fatigue, brain fog, and hair loss. He told me to take a vacation. My primary care doctor ran basic labs and said my thyroid was fine. But I didn't feel fine. And neither do you.
This episode is about what happens when "normal" lab results don...
I need to tell you something your doctor won't: GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Wegovy don't just suppress your appetite. They can fundamentally change your relationship with food, and if you don't deal with the grief that comes with that, you'll either quit the medication and regain everything or stay on it feeling like you're living in grayscale.
...How to Become Unrecognizable in 2026: The 5 Decisions Women Over 40 Need to Make Now
If you're doing what you did last January and getting what you got last February (disappointed, frustrated, right back where you started), this episode is for you.
If you’re ending this year quietly disappointed in yourself, this episode is for you.
Not because you failed. Not because you need fixing. But because overachieving women are rarely taught how to end a season without turning it into a self indictment.
This episode is a conversation about the pressure no one talks about. The kind that shows up when goals go unfinished, bodies change, and life asks more than expected.
No motivation...

Weight-loss drugs like Ozempic®, Wegovy®, and Mounjaro™ or GLP-1 can reset your appetite—but only you can rewire your brain.

If you’re planning dessert halfway through dinner, you don’t have a sugar addiction—you have a satisfaction deficit. In EP 271, I unpack why your brain chases dessert (anticipation addiction, dieter’s mindset, and distraction), how to create satisfaction on purpose, and the simple experiments that end constant food thoughts. This is identity-based weight loss for grown women who want results without food drama.
