Are you trying really hard to lose weight—harder than ever actually—but the weight keeps piling on since you hit your 40s? You’re not alone; this is a common problem for so many of us. In today’s episode, I’m going to share the 3 common mistakes you may be making that are causing you to put on weight and how to correct them. I’ve mentioned in past episodes that at 45, I gained 10 lbs overnight, and I believe I was causing myself more problems that were contributing to my weight gain. It’s all about stress.

By addressing these issues, you can boost your metabolism, balance your hormones, and shed stubborn weight. In health! Lara   Want to learn more? Here are your next steps!
