Delay, Don't Deny: Living an Intermittent Fasting Lifestyle

Product Information

this is funny considering that a lot of the book is her saying, "this is what worked for me," while absolutely slamming people who don't follow her methods of fasting.

There are two ways to manage your fasting days; you can do a full clean fast, which involves only drinking approved beverages, or you can eat a limited amount, only taking in 500 calories on those down days. Anyway, the point of this post, is to tell you that I always fasted with heavy cream in my coffee, bullet proof coffee, and sometimes homemade bone broth, which unbeknownst to me made my fasts extremely difficult. Fasting for two consecutive days will impact your energy levels and can slow your metabolism, making it difficult for you to lose weight. There are celebrations, holidays and vocations and you are allowed to enjoy them as long as you remember to get back on track right after.Many of them were stories of yo-yo dieting and weight loss where they ultimately "ended" with intermittent fasting, but they had only been doing it for a few weeks or months. When she implemented Intermittent Fasting, permanent weight loss became a reality for the first time.

But I can still have a cheeseburger, pizza or dessert if I want to as long as I stick to the clean fast and trust the process.

Also if you want to learn even MORE check out Gin's Podcast with Melanie Avalon ( The IF Podcast) and if you want to get inspired there's also Gin's solo Podcast ( Intermittent Fasting Stories). Also though I recommend this book ANY way you feel like reading it, I DO recommend you listen to it in Gin's voice. Aside from weight-loss, one of the things I'm most grateful for is how much time and energy I've regained as windows of time have opened up to focus on things other than preparing meals, eating, or thinking about food.
