Think eating less and exercising more is the secret to fat loss after 50?

 

Think again.

 

In this episode, I’m joined by Silver Edge Coach and Program Manager Monica Jacobs — and we’re blowing up one of the biggest myths in the weight loss world:

 

That starving yourself is the fastest path to fat loss.

 

(Spoiler alert: It’s actually the fastest path to a broken metabolism, zero energy, stalled fat loss, and feeling like garbage.)

 

This episode is your crash course in what actually works for sustainable fat loss after 50 — and why your old diet tricks might be doing you way more harm than good.

 

We break down:

- Why eating more (not less) is often the key to fat loss over 50  

- How to rebuild a sluggish, diet-damaged metabolism  

- The real reason your scale isn’t moving (it’s not what you think)  

- Why cardio might be killing your results  

- And the exact blueprint we use with our clients to help them build lean, strong, fat-burning bodies — for life  

 

Bottom line? If you’re tired of feeling like your metabolism has left the building… this episode is for you.
