“Here’s a stat that will stop you in your tracks: over 90% of women over 40 never lose their belly fat.

Think about that for a second.Nine. Out of ten.

I’m guessing you’re nodding your head like, ‘Yup, that’s me. I’ve tried everything—eating clean, cutting carbs, doing the workouts—and this stubborn belly fat just will not budge.’

You start to wonder: ‘Is my body broken? Is this just my new normal? Do I have to give up and accept this version of me?’

I want you to hear me loud and clear: you are not broken.

What you’re up against is something called metabolic resistance. And once you understand what’s blocking your body from burning fat, you can finally start working with your body instead of fighting against it.”

In this episode I cover the 5 biggest factors preventing fat loss and causing metabolic resistance in women over 40 (and no it’s not carbs) and of course how to over come them!
