Episode Synopsis
Send us a textIf you’ve ever found yourself losing weight… only to gain it back again, this episode is for you.So many midlife women feel frustrated, disheartened, and convinced that something is “wrong” with them — especially when the strategies that once worked suddenly stop working. But the truth is, it’s not a lack of willpower. And it’s not your fault.In this episode, I share the personal and professional journey that helped me finally step off the yo-yo dieting cycle — and why midlife is often the turning point that forces us to do things differently.We explore why repeated dieting can quietly erode muscle, energy, and confidence, and why sustainable weight loss in midlife requires more than just adjusting calories or exercise. I break down the often-missing component that keeps pulling women back to the start line — mindset — and why without addressing it, lasting change is almost impossible.You’ll hear about:Why the “temporary mindset” keeps you stuck in the lose–gain cycleHow restriction and deprivation set us up for overeating and burnoutWhat it really means to build a healthier relationship with foodThe concept of an energy budget — and how it creates freedom rather than restrictionWhy consistency doesn’t mean perfection (and why 80/20 works)How motivation is created through clarity, belief, and small steps — not waiting for a sparkThis episode is about hope, self-trust, and learning how to work with your midlife body rather than fighting it.If you’re tired of starting over and ready to understand what actually works now — this conversation may be exactly what you need.Let’s Stay Connected:Replay recent webinar (limited time only): Make This the Year You Lose The Weight for the Last time.Find out more about the Midlife Reset Program: HereJoin the Opt to Thrive mailing list: HereFollow Dr. Corina on Instagram: @drcorinasimsopttothriveConnect on Facebook: Opt to Thrive (Dr Corina Sims)Opt to Thrive official websiteIf you enjoyed this episode, please rate, review, and share it with a friend who may enjoy it too.🫶
