EP 92: Are you a midlifer struggling to lose and/or maintain weight? The latest version of the “muffin top” is making you crazy. You are told to eat more protein, intermittent fast, move and you feel like you are doing many of the things and still “ugh”. You want a cupcake for dinner after a cluster fck of a day, me too! What if someone taught you how to actually listen to your body and its feelings? Do you listen to what your body is really asking for? Did you know that if you can define a really authentic “why” when it comes to weight loss and healthy midlife lifestyle, you could make some big changes? Looking for 6 easy midlife rules to transform what you think about food, your body, feel better and shed a few pounds, this episode is for you!
