Eat More, Weigh Less: Midlife Metabolism with Nagina Sethi Abdullah Rock Your Goddess Life

Founder of Masala Body Nagina Sethi Abdullah joins me to flip weight loss on its head—more protein, smart carbs, spices, sleep, strength. No deprivation. Real results, especially for women 40+. What if sustainable fat loss in midlife starts with adding - not restricting? Metabolism coach Nagina Sethi Abdullah sits down with me to share her science-backed approach that helped her lose 40 lbs (and keep it off for 15+ years): stabilize blood sugar, lower inflammation, and build muscle—while eating foods you actually love. She breaks down her 4-Pillar Fat-Burning Food Framework ("Protein More," fiber-rich fruits/veggies, healthy carbs, and healthy fats), why under-eating and chronic low-carb can tank thyroid and cortisol, and how cinnamon, cumin, turmeric, and cayenne can quietly boost results. They cover sleep as the self-care lever for cravings, time-saving strength training (legs/back focus) to raise resting metabolism, and an abundance mindset that makes the plan stick. Plus: how to enjoy treats (yes, strategically) without derailing progress. You'll learn: how to hit ~30g protein at breakfast, pair carbs for steady energy, use spices to support metabolism, design 3 meals + a snack that kill cravings, and lift smarter (not longer) for lasting body recomposition. Nagina shares her "Sweet Spice Cheat Sheet" with the spice that is in your kitchen cabinet! It helps to lower blood sugar and curb sugar cravings. The cheat sheet includes: 3 health benefits of using this spice 5 ways to use it in your day. An easy recipe using this spice: instagram.com/masalabody Sweet Spice Cheat Sheet:
