In this episode of Dieting From the Inside Out, I’m diving deep into the 5 most common struggles middle-aged women face on their weight loss journey—and more importantly, how to overcome them with real solutions.

Whether you’ve battled all-or-nothing thinking, emotional eating, food obsession, body image issues, or the effects of decades of diet culture, this episode is for you. I'm giving you a breakdown of each issue, practical strategies, and the mindset shifts needed to finally get off the diet hamster wheel—for good.

Topics we cover:

- Why “I blew it on the weekend” thinking is keeping you stuck

- How to stop using food to numb your emotions
