Weight Loss After 50 | Menopause, Metabolism, Hormones, Healthy Eating, Pain Relief, Low Carb Diet
Are you tired of dieting and wish you could finally lose weight? Do you fear you will stay stuck forever repeating the same cycles and never reaching your goals? Do you dream of being able to move easily without pain? Wondering if you’ll ever feel confident again? Scared to start another diet... and fail.. yet again…?
I am so excited you're here! This podcast will help you find peace around food, freedom from guilt and restored confidence in yourself. Imagine experiencing renewed energy to enjoy your day while weight loss happens naturally.
Hi, I'm Robyn. A wife, Mom, Nana Jesus lover, and your faith-led, low-carb lifestyle coach. For 50 years, I tried to lose weight on every diet known to man.
I felt out of control with food — especially sugar and carbs — and no longer trusted my body or myself. Hormonal changes, low energy, and increasing body pain only intensified as I became older.
I finally realized that if I was going to create sustainable weight loss and take my health seriously, I needed to understand nutrition in a way that felt simple and doable.
I realized I didn’t need another strict plan—I needed one that fit me. Something simple, doable, and sustainable. A lifestyle that made health feel lighter and more enjoyable. And now, I’m ready to share it with you.
If you are a woman over 50 who is tired of fighting the food noise, doubting yourself and starting over every Monday AND you want to feel in control again, have energy and move with ease without strict diets and guilt, you are in the right place.
Grab those comfy shoes, pop in those earbuds and let's move like our knees didn't just make that weird noise.

IN THIS EPISODE, Robyn shares addressing the fear of failure after past weight loss attempts and how to shift your mindset to make this journey feel different and more empowering.Past Failures Don’t Define Future SuccessShifting from Perfection to ProgressThis new approach isn’t just about losing weight—it’s about gaining confidence, energy, and the freedom to live life fully, without the weight of past frustrations holding you back. You're creating a new normal that aligns with who you are and where you want to go. Each new day is an opportunity to make choices that reinforce our trust in ourselves. Remember, always start again at your next meal - not Monday, not next week, next month or even next year. Start again at your next meal!Most weight loss programs fail women over 50 because they focus on short-term fixes like restrictive diets and/or intense workouts, which don’t take into account the changes your body goes through with age. We cannot do the things we used to do in our 20’s, 30’s and 40’s. These programs often ignore critical factors like slower metabolism, hormonal shifts, and the emotional dependency on sugar for comfort or energy. Without addressing these underlying issues, it’s no wonder many programs lead to frustration, quick weight regain, and even more exhaustion. You need a plan that works with your body, not against it.Welcome to Sweet Freedom over 50 Podcast. My name is Robyn Polk. I've lost 70 pounds and have kept it off since 2017. Join me each week where I will be sharing reasons why weight loss feels so hard after 50, tips & tricks for weight loss after 50, and strategies for successful long term weight loss.Thanks for listening to the Sweet Freedom over 50 Podcast.
