Eps 418: Why ‘Eat Less, Move More’ Stops Working After 40 with Jason Nelson
About this episode
This episode discusses why traditional weight loss strategies fail for women over 40 and offers insights on how to adapt to changes in the body during midlife.
The harder many women push after 40, the worse their bodies seem to respond. Somewhere after 40, “eat less and move more” starts creating more exhaustion than results, and so many women end up blaming themselves for it. If your body suddenly feels unfamiliar after 40, this episode will help you understand what’s really happening and where to start next.
