Fat Loss School for Women Over 50 | Strategies to Lose Weight and Belly Fat After Menopause with Intermittent Fasting, Carb Cycling, Macros, Exercise, & 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!

In this episode of Fat Loss School, I'll explain how excess sugar sabotages fat loss and long-term health for women over 50 and introduces a powerful 10-day sugar detox starting October 20th.
You'll learn why sugar is so harmful, hidden sources and common sugar names to watch for, and practical tips—like whole foods, hydration, fiber, & daily movement—to reduce cravings and stabilize blood sugar.
The detox is offered to Faster Way VIP members and includes a guidebook and daily action items; listeners are encouraged to join, read labels, and use this episode’s resources to reset habits and boost energy.
