Are you tired of eating less and moving more, only to see no real results? What if the key to lasting fat loss wasn’t harder work, but smarter strategy?

In this episode of Salad with a Side of Fries, host Jenn Trepeck welcomes Joe Hoye, a sought-after coach known for his bold, backwards approach to health. With a background in the medical field and a track record of helping women over 40 rebuild their metabolism and break free from diet culture, Joe shares how eating more, exercising less, and prioritizing recovery can completely transform your body—and your mindset.

This conversation is compelling for women in midlife who feel stuck in a cycle of restriction and frustration. Joe breaks down why fat loss (not weight loss), building muscle, and mindset matter more than the number on the scale. From simplifying nutrition and supplements to balancing workouts with rest and recovery, this episode is your permission slip to do things differently—and finally feel good doing it.

The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, who discusses wellness and weight loss in real life, clearing up myths, misinformation, and bad science surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let’s dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store.

IN THIS EPISODE:

(02:24) The focus of Diet Detox simplifies nutrition and fitness: eat more and exercise less
(06:30) Joe's journey began at 13, inspired by his mother, leading to a focus on helping women over 40
(16:31) Eat less, move more is not effective for health. Focus on fat loss, not weight loss
(20:12) Exercise without recovery is detrimental, discussion of 3 days/week resistance training and compound movements
(28:46) Nutrition choices that follow a healthy weight loss plan for fat loss. Calories, protein, and carbs
(31:25) Joe talks about supplements and the most critical elements to focus on
(36:52) Stress management

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

Fat loss is about balance, not extremes—sustainable results come from eating enough, exercising smart, and prioritizing recovery over overtraining.
Muscle is the key to metabolism—building and maintaining muscle supports fat loss, boosts energy, and improves long-term health, especially for women over 40.
Nutrition and mindset drive transformation—focusing on protein, recovery, and identity shifts empowers women (especially moms) to create lasting change that ripples through families and communities.

QUOTES:

(03:39) “We might not see the ideal results in the first few weeks, but over time we can get there.” Jenn Trepeck

(15:46) “When we change a mom's life, we change the lives, not just of an entire family, but of an entire community. - Jenn Trepeck

(16:33) “We have to understand that muscle is everything when it comes to our metabolism. And our metabolism is everything when it comes to weight loss.” - Joe Hoye

(30:30) “If you're having trouble sleeping, the best thing that you can take for sleep is a complex carbohydrate before bed: oats, sweet potatoes, brown rice, something like that. Don't knock it before you try it. And then, tell me how well you slept, because I guarantee you it's better.” Joe Hoye

(31:11) “It's pairing everything together. It's thinking about things in terms of their purpose, and we are talking about whole, actual food.” - Jenn Trepeck

GUEST BIOGRAPHY:

Most coaches tell women to eat less and move more—Joe Hoye does the opposite. Through Diet Detox, he simplifies nutrition and fitness, helping women eat more, exercise less, and focus on what truly matters: breaking free from self-sabotage, shifting their identity, and achieving forever weight loss.

With a background in surgery and years of coaching experience, Joe has helped over 1,000 women ditch restrictive diets, rebuild their metabolisms, and reshape their lives. His bold, backwards approach proves that lasting change isn’t found in another diet—it’s found in a total mindset shift.

Named as one of the top 100 menopause influencers of 2024 and as the Host of Midlife Makeover summit, the largest online health summit for women 40+, Joe is an influential figure with a track record to back it up!
