In this episode, we'll explore why managing insulin resistance is crucial for lasting health and fat loss, and how simple lifestyle tweaks can make a powerful difference.

Do you feel more like a hamster on a wheel…working so hard but getting nowhere. And the scale isn’t moving.

FASTer Way trainer Coach LeAnne Ash is today's guest sharing about eating gluten and dairy free. Gluten can trigger adverse reactions in some people because the peptides in gluten are resistant to stomach acids, making them hard to digest. Symptoms can range from mild indigestion to more serious health conditions. As for dairy…cows milk is appropriate to fatten up a child. But about 70% of the world’s adult population can’t digest dairy - leading to inflammation, autoimmune diseases, gut issues, and more. LeAnne is going to school us on how great we can feel - and how lean we can get - when we choose to bypass inflammatory foods like gluten and dairy.
Here is LeAnne's favorite sourdough bread recipe: https://moonandspoonandyum.com/gluten-free-sourdough-bread/

If quirky, fun, and silly things make our lives, work, and relationships richer, why are we not adding FUN to our nutrition and fitness routines? If you look at exercise, food prep and cooking as dreaded chores, you are FAR less likely to workout and cook. But if you add some gamification, some silliness, and some fun into those things, you’ll be far more likely to do them in the first place and quite possibly start to enjoy them and feel amazing and proud that they are done! This episode will share ideas for adding some fun and silliness to your routine, habits, workouts, food prep, etc. You’d better believe you’ll be more likely to DO the hard things when you begin associating them with warm, delightful feelings.

If you are doing all of the right things to lose weight - like eating healthy and exercising often - but not seeing change in inches and pounds lost, you may have what my guest today calls “weight loss resistance.” Nicki Williams, host of Happy Hormones podcast, will share the first strategies to check, then the “Fiesty Four” hormones, and, finally, lifestyle habits that can have you stubbornly holding onto fat rather than burning it for fuel. Today is a fast paced but thorough identification of areas to consider addressing to reignite your fat loss results. Get your notebook ready!

If your diet plan or program isn’t letting you choose the course that you want, then I encourage you to find a new program! If you are a rebel like me…you question WHY a rule makes sense for you or are constantly looking for alternatives to the rule. If you are like me, you have found it nearly impossible to stick with a rigid plan - maybe even moreso in our 50s. We are grown, sophisticated, educated women and not interested in one-size-fits-all formulas for weight loss or miserable crash diets that we can’t sustain long term. We want to be able to customize and individualize. We want guard rails instead of strict rules. If this sounds good to you, I’m glad you are here because today I will be sharing all of the ways you can customize the FASTer Way to Fat Loss® for your unique needs, likes, limitations, and goals.

You’ve heard the phrase “physician heal thyself” and today my guest is a physician who indeed healed herself by reversing her pre-diabetes diagnosis - and lost weight in the process. I asked her to teach us about her warning signs, her method and lifestyle changes, and specific recommendations for this audience of other fabulous-over-fifty women. We know that more and more of our friends and family are being diagnosed with this disease of lifestyle. School is in session and we’re learning about reversing and preventing pre-diabetes and inevitably type 2 diabetes!
