are you doing a 2 day fast with me today?

even if its 36 hours, having a full day without food can be a huge health boost

The linked video is titled:

MY EXPERIENCE WITH INTERMITTENT, ALTERNATE DAY FASTING

Here are my notes:

• Rachel believes that although some protocols allow you to eat 500 calories on fasting days, she does not eat any calories
• you can listen to Rachel’s back story which is very inspiring
• she grew up overweight
• she lacked self esteem, she was depressed
• she had the mindset where she thought that she wasn’t good enough and never would be good enough
• she tried many different diets, nothing worked, and gained even more weight up to 236 pounds
• the thing that changed everything was that she could not even walk 2 miles
• her boyfriend was doing 16:8 intermittent fasting, so she learned all about it
• she used TDEE to identify calories and used the lose-it app to count calories
• she started out doing TDEE calories every other day, eating 500 calories every other day
• then moved on to a full fast on fasting days
• after 7 months, Rachel lost 72 pounds
• the best thing about it is you can eat whatever you want as long on eating days as it is under your calories
• then she added exercise
• after 1 year, she was down 98 pounds on fasting and running
• then added in strength training
• she has many tools now and she can tune a lot to allow her to eat socially
• she is a completely different person today
• Rachel worked hard to get where she is

Let’s figure it out!  The Fasting Motivation podcast is not medical advice.
