19: Carb Cycling- The Answer to Fat loss in your 40s
To truly understand how this works for women over 40, you must first understand Body Shape Change.
Whereas weight loss is about the reduction of mass i.e. how much you weigh on the scale.
Body Shape Change focuses on the shape of the body, the curves, the leaning out of your midsection and to dewobble your wobbly bits!

The amount of calories is important but so is the macro content of that food i.e. protein, carbs and fat.
There needs to be a balance or a proportion of how you consume each of these to reach your body goals.
Carbohydrates are simply one of the macronutrients you need to fuel your body. Along with proteins, fats and
How does it work? Yup, here comes the science.
