207. Why Women Over 50 Are Not Eating Enough PROTEIN (And How to Fix It)

In this episode of Fat Loss School, we’re breaking down exactly how to increase your protein intake without stress or overthinking it—because for many women, this is the missing piece when it comes to losing belly fat, boosting metabolism, and maintaining muscle during menopause. If hitting your protein goal feels overwhelming or confusing, you’re not alone. Most women over 50 were never taught to prioritize protein—thanks to decades of low-fat dieting and carb-heavy meal recommendations. But now?
