Carrie opens up about gaining 60 pounds in her 40s, trying every diet, and finding traction only when medical support, mindset work, and daily habits lined up. Together, we walk through her plan using turzepatide, how GLP‑1s quiet food noise and delay gastric emptying, and why patience matters when the body rebalances before the weight comes off. We dive into the coaching side most people never get at quick clinics: identifying emotional eating triggers, taming sugar cravings, and building sustainable routines—20,000 steps, smarter snacks, and better sleep. When cravings crept back late in the week, low‑dose naltrexone (LDN) helped smooth out appetite and improved sleep through endorphin release, which made workouts and clean eating easier to sustain. We also cover root‑cause thinking with hormone panels and food sensitivity testing, so you’re not fighting hidden issues that keep progress stuck. Confidence counts too, especially after major weight loss. Carrie chose a natural aesthetic route with Sculptra to stimulate collagen gradually instead of instant‑volume fillers, aiming for lift and balance without looking “done.” We talk through timelines, expectations, and why a slow approach can feel more authentic. If you’re navigating midlife changes, this conversation offers a roadmap that blends science, compassion, and consistency—less hype, more results. Want support on your journey?
