Episode 529: Fat Loss vs. Weight Loss — Why the Difference Matters After 40
About this episode
The number on your scale is one of the least useful pieces of health data you have. And chasing it is likely the reason you feel like you're failing.
The scale can't tell you what you actually lost — and for midlife women, that distinction is everything. Courtney explains the critical difference between fat loss and weight loss, why muscle preservation is non-negotiable after 40, and what measurements actually reflect the progress you're working for.
