00:10:33 - In the 5-0 Method, you have a formula for water intake. Do you have such a thing for calories?

00:16:44 - How much sleep do you recommend?

00:18:49 - Regarding sleep, I sometimes have hot flashes and racing thoughts that keep me awake. I’ve been getting up and reading until I feel sufficiently drowsy to fall asleep. Is this derailing my sleep efforts?

00:27:59 - I’m 49, and weight loss has slowed down with every passing year due to several factors. How long of “no weight loss” would be considered a plateau, and what do you suggest to break it? I’m concerned that I’m eating too many calories.

00:46:11 - I’m getting lots of moderate exercise, but sleep and mindset are things that challenge me. This is hard! How can I keep making progress?

00:53:10 - I’m new here. What is your weight loss philosophy?
