#66 Please STOP cutting food on rest days like you need to earn it.

Should I eat less on my rest days? I get asked this constantly, and everyone wants a clean yes or no.There is not one. And the fact you are looking for a blanket rule is part of why the effort is not showing up on your body.This episode is for women over 40 who are tired of chasing rules that were never built for them.What I cover:Why should I eat less on rest days is the wrong questionThe earn your food mindset, where it comes from, and why it blocks progressWhether you have actually nailed tracking, and why cycling before that just adds chaosWhy you should never cycle your proteinWhy rest days build muscleThe only two cases where calorie or carb cycling genuinely helpsWhy relieving your perimenopause symptoms can start with simply eating enoughWhy learning your own body is what frees you from needing a coach foreverThis is not about a magic rule. It is about learning which rules are yours.
