233. Macros 101: How Tracking Protein, Carbs, and Fats Can Help with Fat Loss After 50

Macro tracking can feel confusing at first, but it doesn’t have to be. In this FAT LOSS SCHOOL episode, I’m breaking down the basics of protein, carbohydrates, and fat—and explaining why tracking macros can be a more useful fat-loss tool than simply counting calories.

You’ll learn what macros are, why each one matters, how protein supports muscle preservation after 50, whether you should stay under your macro targets, how to handle protein supplements, fiber, restaurant meals, alcohol, and exercise, and why eating less and exercising more is not always the answer.

I’ll also explain why your macro targets should be customized to YOU rather than copied from a friend or pulled from a random online calculator.

Inside the FASTer Way program, you receive customized macro targets, weekly meal plans and menus, strategically programmed workouts, and coaching to help you put it all together without having to figure it out on your own.

If you’re a woman over 50 who wants to lose fat, preserve muscle, improve body composition, and finally understand how to fuel your body, consider this your Macro Tracking 101 class.

In this episode:

  • What protein, carbs, and fats actually do
  • Macros vs. calories for fat loss
  • Why eating below your targets can backfire
  • How much protein matters after 50
  • Whole foods vs. “if it fits your macros”
  • Protein powders and supplements
  • Fiber-rich foods
  • Tracking macros while eating at restaurants
  • Alcohol and fat-loss goals
  • Why strength training and nutrition work together
  • How customized macro targets make the process easier

This is Part 1 of my Macro Mini-Series, so be sure to listen to the upcoming lessons on practical macro-tracking tips and carb cycling.
