Tired of doing everything “right” but still struggling with weight gain in midlife? It’s not your fault. Your hormones, metabolism, and body are changing—and traditional dieting is actually keeping you stuck.

In this game-changing episode, weight loss expert Nagina Abdullah breaks down the science of midlife weight gain and reveals what actually works for burning fat, reducing bloating, and regaining energy—without restriction or dieting harder.

Inside this episode, you’ll learn:

  • The number one hidden reason for stubborn belly fat after 40
  • Why calorie-cutting and low-carb diets backfire in midlife
  • How to eat more (not less) to fire up your metabolism
  • The three metabolism-boosting foods that fight inflammation and belly bloat
  • Why perimenopause and menopause change how your body stores fat—and what to do about it

If you’re tired of feeling stuck and want a science-backed way to lose weight for good, this episode is a must-listen.
