Easy Meals for Weight Loss, According to an Endocrinologist
An endocrinologist argues that age-related weight loss struggles, especially for women dealing with declining estrogen, are best addressed through a whole foods, plant-based diet rather than carb-cutting, since complex carbs like lentils, beans and legumes stabilize insulin and keep you satiated. She flags the widespread mistake of slashing carbs entirely, and instead offers her own go-to meals—bean-heavy chili, quinoa-chickpea salad, and lentil soup—as practical, satisfying options for sustainable weight loss.
