I Used to Lose 10 Pounds in a Week. Now I Sniff a Cinnabon and Gain Five. Here's What Changed.
from The Unhinged Father · host The Unhinged Father
Robbie was once at 315 pounds. He's been grinding — five days a week at the gym, cardio, 2400 calories max during the week — and still can't break below 270. He's not asking for sympathy. He's asking why the hell his body stopped cooperating sometime around age 30, and what he and every other dad over 35 is supposed to do about it.This is an honest, slightly frustrated episode about the specific challenge of staying healthy when you're older, busier, and your metabolism has apparently decided to take early retirement. No miracle solutions. No supplement ads. Just the real math of weight loss after 30 and why the mental game matters as much as the physical one.Topics covered: why weight loss after 30 is categorically different from weight loss in your 20s and what to do about it, Robbie's current approach including calorie counting, lifting and cardio, and the weekend flexibility that keeps him sane, the mental math he does before every food decision, why your physical health is directly connected to your patience as a parent, and the message to younger listeners — build the habits now before your body stops forgiving you for not having them.Send a message about the episode!
