Fat Loss School | Lose Weight + Improve Hormones & Metabolism with Healthy Food, Intermittent Fasting, Carb Cycling, Macros & Mindset

Welcome to the Fat Loss School podcast! If you’ve been struggling with extra pounds, menopausal belly fat, feeling overwhelmed by too many diet options, are on the borderline with health issues, and are frustrated by past weight loss failures - especially if you’ve hit the fabulous fifty mark - then grab a seat because this podcast is your ultimate fat loss classroom. I am Amy Bryan, 30 year educator and certified FASTer Way to Fat Loss® online nutrition and fitness coach. I’ll be your teacher and guide to show you that losing fat and gaining energy - plus maintaining it long term - is truly possible even at our age. I know because I’ve been there. In my 30s & 40s, I did all the diets, tried all the gimmicks, over-exercised, lost and gained the same pounds over & over. At 50, I had accomplished so much except in this one very important area and was through wasting time and energy on temporary fixes! This podcast will teach lifestyle changes that shed the fat in a healthy way that you can sustain long term and change your health trajectory so you age with energy, independence, and confidence. Think of these few minutes together as a study hall with cheat sheets for fat loss and include topics like intermittent fasting, carb cycling, mindset reframing, and more. Grab your notebook, because class is officially in session, and it’s time to rewrite your wellness story! Connect with me at https://linktr.ee/amybryanfasterway

Do you hear conflicting messages on which foods are healthy or fattening and feel overwhelmed and confused? One day eggs are the villain, the next they are a superfood. You were told not to eat shrimp because they are too high in cholesterol. Now we know that dietary cholesterol does not result in unhealthy blood cholesterol - so enjoy your high protein shrimp! This episode of FAT LOSS SCHOOL explores some true and false claims of the healthiness of certain foods by sharing from Dr. Mark Hyman's book FOOD: What the Heck Should I Eat?  You may not have the time or inclination to read books on nutrition, but I do, and I've got you covered. You will know more about healthy food claims after these few minutes together...and then you may be intrigued to read the book to learn much more! 
FOOD: What the Heck Should I Eat? by Mark Human, MD is available at most all bookstores and here: https://amzn.to/48PEe9u
