Feel Better. Live Free. | Healthy Weight Loss & Wellness for Midlife Women

As a woman in her 40’s I so appreciate Ruth sharing her knowledge of her science based research geared specifically to women just like me. It’s motivational and inspiring. I’ve learned so much! My favorite episode is The Science of Sugar Addiction

Real examples, easy explanation, doable life style. Do yourself a favor and listen to this is. There are so many other resources available. Ruth made the hardest thing I battle achieveable.

I was initially interested to hear what she said since a lot of the basics I listened to the podcast I’ve agreed with. I listened to her time- limited sales pitch in her free video and I’m shocked that they would charge $600 just for support to help someone with a “ramp” program to go on and off of keto, but was also equally shocked when she mentioned being on vacation for six weeks and eating out the entire time! That comment alone was shocking to me since it showed what a different life she must be living and it makes me wonder how out of touch the pricing and everything else is. I was really hopeful that this was something besides a moderate version of keto- which I’ve seen other people say as well, but hopefully this support group helps people who are very overweight, but again the fact that she would be honest enough to talk about eating out and being on vacation for six weeks when so many people are financially struggling seemed extremely out of touch and makes me wonder what else is out of touch as well! I also wonder what kind of support group she had since she kept talking about reading books and doing the research and going through it all and find it a little bit ironic potentially that she’s selling a program saying it can’t be done or it’s hard to be done by yourself? Maybe she mentions this later in the program and I haven’t gotten to it yet, but that’s something that definitely stuck out as well! Was optimistic this was more than just a way for her family to make money and take more long vacations. Somewhat disappointing :(

I really was excited to listen to this but quickly realized it’s just a keto diet dressed up as a healthy lifestyle. Lots of bad/buzzy fake science such as how seed oils prevent you from losing weight, that you can convert to being a “fat burner”, and of course the promise of not counting calories. Women of a certain age know even eating low carb you still have to monitor calorie intake to lose weight and keep it off.
