If you're a woman over 50 frustrated by menopause belly fat, weight gain, a changing metabolism, or the feeling that “eat less and exercise more” just isn't working anymore, consider this episode your field trip to a different way of thinking.
In this episode of FAT LOSS SCHOOL, Amy Bryan takes you on a road trip from frustrated and confused to creating a sustainable healthy lifestyle after 50—using the lessons that completely changed her own approach to nutrition, exercise and aging.
Despite having three college degrees and eventually holding the top job in a school system, Amy admits she knew almost nothing about nutrition. She thought eating fat made you fat, didn't understand carbohydrates, wasn't prioritizing protein, and believed fasting was simply a way to eat fewer calories. And after more than 20 years as a runner, she thought better results required running longer, farther and faster—yet she weighed more at her third half marathon than her first and eventually found herself dealing with pain and injury.
The education that followed changed the road she was traveling.
You'll learn why sustainable fat loss after 50 involves much more than cutting calories and adding cardio, including the roles of protein, macros, intermittent fasting, carb cycling, strength training, HIIT, walking, sleep, recovery and mindset.
Amy also explains why transformation after menopause shouldn't be measured only by pounds on a scale. Progress may also look like inches lost, more muscle and strength, better energy and sleep, improved mobility and stamina, changing cravings, greater nutrition knowledge, more confidence, and a healthier relationship with food and exercise.
And most importantly, you'll see the ultimate destination:
Not another diet you eventually quit—but a healthy lifestyle that becomes simply how you live.
