Metabolic Makeover: Why Starving Yourself After 50 is the Worst Fat Loss Plan Ever
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.
