You’re not alone. In this episode of Fat Loss School, Amy sits down with Dr. Andrea Grayson, author of The Sweet Tooth Dilemma, to discuss the science behind sugar cravings, emotional eating, blood sugar balance, and why so many women struggle to break free from the cycle of cravings and overeating. If you’ve ever found yourself craving sweets after dinner, reaching for sugar when stressed, or wondering why your willpower seems to disappear around cookies, candy, or desserts, this conversation is for you. Together, Amy and Dr. Grayson explore what is really happening in the brain and body when cravings hit—and how women over 50 can create a healthier relationship with sugar without relying on restrictive diets or sheer willpower.
