If you’ve been eating less, watching your portions, and being “good”... but the scale won’t budge, this episode is for you.
I’m sharing why eating less can actually stall weight loss after 40 and what to do instead to break through a plateau.
Most women think discipline is the answer. The truth? It’s not just about the food on your plate—it’s about your weight identity, the deep beliefs you have about your body, and how you think weight loss should work.
When you shift both your nutrition strategy and your identity, you can finally see results that last.
Inside this episode, you’ll also hear about my client who was stuck in a plateau, even though she was following my Satisfaction Scale perfectly. What we discovered about her eating habits will surprise you and might be exactly what you need to hear right now.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
-
Why eating less backfires after 40 (metabolic adaptation explained in simple terms)
-
The role your weight identity plays in keeping you stuck
-
What I track in a 10–14 day Nutrition Review for my clients
