If you are in your 40s, you have belly fat and you are getting frustrated that nothing is working for you, welcome to
Lose Belly Fat After 40.
Today we talk about what happens when you stop looking at your body weight and start looking at your body fat levels, muscle mass and visceral fat instead.
This is for you if you want to feel like you're in control of your weight, your diet, your exercise and your routine instead of feeling like it controls you/
This is also for you if you want to live as healthy as you can for as long as you can.
In this episode you will hear
- How to WIN a body composition scale:
- What is body recomposition
- Ways to track body composition
This changes everything!
Discover the shifts you will experience by switching from weight loss and tactics that are not sustainable, to a focus on your body composition instead, that will help you to create a healthy lifestyle.
Hear about the ways dieting and weight loss hurt your body, your metabolism and your longevity.
Trust me! I am 44 and this summer, I wear a bikini with the most confidence and least insecurity I ever have.
That is the power of tracking body composition instead of body weight or BMI: it will help you find peace with your body image, while nourishing yourself and get better at resting.
This is everything you need if you are a working mom in her 40s who wants to lose weight, especially in the midsection or a busy dad who wants to get rid of the belly fat.
And with this episode relaunching the podcast, I am GIVING a scale so you can do all of this.

Whether you are constantly traveling for work, or going to be on the road for vacation with your family this summer, being away from home can make it very challenging to stay consistent with healthy eating.
Today I share with you how I used AI to analyze menus of fast-food restaurants to find healthy options and low carb meals by looking for high protein diet options for one of my clients who wants to lose belly visceral fat.
For weight loss, there is nothing like a homemade, whole food meal.
In this episode, you will not only get the top picks for quick and easy meals from fast-food chains that won't completely derail your body composition goals, for when you are on the go or in a pinch, I actually give you the criteria that I used to find "healthy" options, so you can apply that to the fast-food chains that are in your area.
So you can use AI to fit your preferences or food sensitivities.

What if I told that sun exposure is one of the most underutilized levers for body composition?
It is affecting visceral fat, muscle strength and function, and metabolic health through 4 distinct biological system.
Today we talk about how the sun stimulates the production of vitamin D, Nitric oxide and melatonin, and how sunlight sets our circadian rhythm.
You will learn how belly fat, fat and muscle respond to the sun, and you will learn how to harness the life-giving and energy-giving power of the sun.
This is my encouragement to not hide from the sun this summer and not block your skin from making these amazing signaling molecules, especially if you want to lose weight and have more energy.
Nerd alert: this is evidence-based advice.
