Are You Eating Enough Protein for Fat Loss? Free Tracker for Women 45+

You’ve been told to “just eat clean.”
So you cut the sugar, sipped the green juice, grilled the chicken...
But the scale? Still shady.
Your energy? Still spotty.
Your jeans? Still tight.

Let me hit you with this truth bomb:
Most women over 45 are wildly under-eating protein.

And it’s sabotaging your fat loss, your focus, and your fire.

You’re not lazy.
You’re not broken.
You’re not doing it all wrong.

You’re just missing a piece no one taught you to track.

You’ve been white-knuckling your way through calorie counting and cardio, wondering why nothing sticks...when really, your body is crying out for the right fuel.

And that fuel? Starts with protein.

Here’s what no one’s telling you:

Your “healthy” smoothie might only have 12g of protein…
When your body? Needs closer to 100–130g a day just to thrive in midlife.

Protein isn’t just for bodybuilders, t’s your secret weapon for:

  • Flattening your belly

  • Revving your metabolism

  • Staying full (without sugar crashes)

  • Protecting your lean muscle

  • Supporting hormone balance

The problem is, most women don’t even know how much they’re getting.

That’s where this comes in 👇🏽

Here’s the quick and dirty method I teach inside my wellness coaching:

  1. Track it: Don’t guess...know. Log your protein for 3 days using my free tracker.

  2. Adjust it: See the gaps? Close them with high-impact foods and my personal go-tos.

  3. Thrive: Once you’re consistently hitting your number, your cravings drop, your energy climbs, and yes, your inches shrink.

No magic. No counting calories. Just intentional fuel

I want you to see the truth for yourself.
