In this episode, I’m joined by Silver Edge Coach and Program Manager Monica Jacobs — and we’re blowing up one of the biggest myths in the weight loss world: That starving yourself is the fastest path to fat loss.

Spoiler Alert: Eating More & Exercising Less Worked Better For Her Than Dieting Ever Did
Send us a textWelcome to a special replay episode of the Over 50 Health & Wellness Show! With registration officially open for our upcoming 21 Day Metabolic Makeover Challenge (kicking off April 21st!)… I thought this was the perfect time to bring back one of my all-time favorite conversations. In this episode, you’ll meet Nicole Hansen — a Silver Edge client who knows exactly what it feels like to be stuck in the never-ending cycle of dieting, cardio, frustration… and zero results. Nicole spent decades doing everything “right.” → Eating 1200 calories a day. → Doing hours of cardio. → Feeling exhausted, defeated, and convinced her metabolism was just… broken. Then she joined our 21 Day Challenge. What happened next might just flip everything you thought you knew about fat loss after 50. Spoiler alert? Nicole started eating more food. Started doing less cardio. Started lifting weights. And started feeling stronger, more energized, and (yes!) losing fat in a sustainable way for the first time in years. Her story is inspiring, relatable, and proof that it’s never too late to turn your body into a fat-burning, muscle-building machine. Ready to Start Your Story? Registration for the 21 Day Metabolic Makeover Challenge is *NOW OPEN*! Challenge kicks off April 21st — and it’s just $21 to join.
