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!

Our standard American diet is making us fat, sick, and starving for real satisfying nutrition. We don't find that real nourishing and satisfying food in Snack Wells, Lean Cuisines, or even protein bars. We are missing the mark if we are trying to get healthy and lose fat with processed food-like substances. Today's lesson reminds us that nature's way of eating is also nature's way of preventing obesity.

Today’s lesson comes from a recovering emotional eater…we’re talking bags of M & Ms and pints of ice cream. Who can’t relate to over-eating on sugary foods like those? Her lesson is on rewiring your brain based on patterns and threats (or triggers) and is tied to her occupation (and I can’t wait for you to hear what her job was). Stick with us to the end for a fun freebie to help with your own emotional eating triggers.

I have questions all of the time that are so basic…not complicated questions like "how do I carb cycle" or "how do I determine my macros" but “is there an app or a Facebook group?” and “where do I sign up and what happens next” …just really basic info and I realize that I skip those important pieces of basic information in my enthusiasm to share the features of our program or the results. So, on today’s podcast episode I want to share exactly how my online class works for women over 50 looking to lose inches and pounds of fat in the next 6 weeks.
