If you’re still exercising on an empty stomach and you’re going through hormonal changes or post menopausal, this episode is essential for your fat loss strategy.

You’ll learn why for you—working out hungry can slow fat loss due to hormonal changes leading up to and following the menopause transition. Learn why exercising on empty for you can drain your energy and trigger the very overeating you’re trying to avoid.

Heather breaks down how years of fasting, skipping meals, or “saving up calories” can quietly sabotage your body’s ability to to lose fat and skew your relationship with properly fueling your body, and how to rebuild both through intentional, compassionate fueling.

You’ll discover how to:

Recognize the hidden signs of under-fueling (fatigue, cravings, plateauing).
Understand why your body needs fuel to burn fat efficiently.
Reconnect with your hunger cues and rebuild self-trust.
Apply the new Fueling Your Workouts worksheet inside the 2026 Follow-Through Planner to find your personal pre- and post-workout strategy.

By the end, you’ll know exactly how to shift from burning out to fueling strong—so your workouts finally work with your fat loss goals, not against them.
