Think counting calories will help you lose weight? Sarah Williams is about to shatter that myth completely. Your body doesn't work like a simple math equation, and the reason your diet keeps failing has nothing to do with willpower.

🎯 What You'll Discover:

• Why protein burns 25-30% of its own calories just being digested (carbs only burn 8%)

• How insulin keeps you in fat-storage mode for up to 6 hours after eating carbs

• The shocking truth about your liver's 100-gram carb limit and what happens to the excess

• Why your cells become more insulin resistant as you age, making weight loss harder every year

👤 Perfect for: anyone who's tried calorie counting and wondered why the scale won't budge despite eating less.
