What happens when you spend your life taking care of everyone else—and put yourself last?

In this episode of Weight Loss After 50, I’m joined by Debbie Weiss, bestselling author, speaker, podcast host, and Certified Caregiving Consultant.

Debbie has been a caregiver for much of her life, and she knows firsthand how caring for others can affect your own health, eating habits, and relationship with food.

We talk about:

• Debbie’s own weight-loss journey and struggles with food
• How caregiving can lead to putting your own needs on the back burner
• Emotional eating, stress, and eating when you’re not physically hungry
• Learning to care for yourself without feeling guilty
• Small “sprinkle-sized” shifts that can make a difference

Near the end of our conversation, Debbie shares a story that beautifully shows why prioritizing yourself matters—even when you’re caring for others.

Especially then.

If you’re a caregiver who has been putting yourself last, this is a must-listen.
