Cheryl tried everything: keto, vegan, carnivore, general calorie restriction, and like so many women, she kept losing and regaining the same weight over and over again.

At nearly 70 years old and starting at 198 pounds, she decided to try something different.In this episode, Cheryl shares how she lost 52 pounds, improved her metabolism, and (most importantly) learned how to maintain her results for life.

We talk about:

- Why most fat loss approaches fail long-term

- The missing piece almost no one teaches: maintenance

- How her mindset, confidence, and identity completely shifted

- What she actually eats day-to-day (including carbs 👀)

- Why it’s never too late to take control of your health

This is more than a weight loss story: it’s a story about taking ownership of your health, rebuilding your metabolism, and showing up fully for your life.If you’ve ever felt stuck, like nothing works, or like it’s “too late”… this episode is for you.
