Hello there, ladies! It's Michele here, your 60-something guide to health after the big 5-0. In today's episode, we're having a good old chat about taking care of ourselves in these golden years.
Listen, I know what you're going through. Those hormones playing musical chairs, feeling like your muscles are on vacation, and all those "experts" telling you what to do—it's enough to make your head spin! I've been there too, and that's why I'm sitting in this chair today talking to you.
We're going to break down intermittent fasting into bite-sized pieces that make sense for real women like us. No complicated rules—just simple ways to give your body the rest it deserves between meals. And those workouts? Lady, we're not training for the Olympics! We're just looking to jumpstart our metabolism, keep our bones strong so we can play with those grandbabies, and get up from the floor without calling for help!
Many of my clients come to me having tried every diet under the sun. They've been counting points, cutting carbs, and feeling guilty about every morsel. Well, not anymore! In my kitchen, we focus on nourishment, not punishment.
I want you to know something important: it's never too late to start, no matter where you are today. Whether you're struggling to climb a flight of stairs or you've never lifted anything heavier than a grocery bag, you belong here.
Every little thing you do today—taking the stairs, lifting those small weights, saying no to that second helping—is a gift to your 80-year-old self. And trust me, she'll thank you for it!
So pop in those earbuds while you're folding laundry or walking the dog, and let's figure this out together. Subscribe to our podcast, join our community of wonderful women just like you, and remember: you're not starting over, you're simply beginning an amazing, new chapter.
I'll be right here, cheering you on every step of the way!
