Listen, I know where your head is right now, it’s a common theme of women over 40. Summer is coming and you are looking at your wardrobe thinking about what you are not going to wear again this year. The shorts that have been at the back of the drawer. The swimsuit you keep meaning to try on. I get messages from women every single April and May who are frustrated that another year has gone by and they are in the same place.
Realize 6 Weeks is still enough time to make a real visible difference. Not a crash diet. The right things.
If I was trying to help you feel less frustrated, these are the things I would tell you to do.
1st -Id get brutally honest with tracking and would get your calories and protein right. Not 1200 calories. Not starvation. A moderate deficit of around 300 to 400 calories below your maintenance with protein at 0.8 - 1 gram / pound of goal body weight. This alone would change everything for most women because most are either eating far too little and stalling their metabolism or not tracking at all and not knowing where they are.
2nd- I would get you into strength training 2-4 days a week with progressive overload. Not endless cardio. Lifting. Because muscle is what reshapes the body and drives the metabolism.
3rd- I would get you to 10K steps every single day. Not as a punishment. As her biggest fat burning lever outside the gym. Walking has such a huge impact on fatloss and is highly underrated.
4th I would clean up your blood sugar. Protein and fibre at every meal, reducing ultra processed foods, walking after eating when you can. Stable blood sugar means lower cortisol which means less belly fat storage.
5th- I would protect your sleep like it was part of the program. Because it is. Poor sleep undoes almost everything else.
Six to eight weeks of this done consistently will produce real results. Not twenty pounds. But visible, lasting change that sets the foundation for the rest of the year.
