She grew up in the Philippines and moved to the United States in 2013. She realized the way she grew up mimicked intermittent fasting through her cultural routine of eating at distinct mealtimes with no snacking—a lifestyle that maintained her weight and health without struggle. Growing up with this ingrained discipline, Mona was always conscious and appreciative of her body's well-being. However, the true challenge presented itself after the birth of her daughter.Mona shares the stress and challenges she faced postpartum, with 2020 bringing the added complexity of the COVID-19 pandemic. The fear of judgment and stigma associated with mental health in her culture led her to seek alternative coping mechanisms to medication and therapy.Mona began her journey with intermittent fasting after a childhood friend mentioned it to her. She found the Intermittent Fasting Stories podcast and knew that the lifestyle was science-backed.Despite losing only a small amount of weight on the scale—around five pounds—Mona feels more joyful and content. She shares her experience of body recomposition after childbirth, regaining confidence in her appearance, and the joy of fitting back into her preferred clothing sizes.To wrap up the episode, Mona emphasizes how her newfound approach to food, self-care, and parenting has enriched her life. She encourages listeners to embrace minimalism, whether in diet, lifestyle, or parenting, and to realize the profound impact that simplicity and gentle approaches can have. Her final advice for anyone starting their intermittent fasting journey is to keep it simple, listen to your body, and trust in the process for a transformative experience.Get Gin’s books at: http://www.ginstephens.com/get-the-books.html, including her latest bestseller 28-Day Fast Start Day-By-Day, the Ultimate Guide to Starting (or Restarting) Your Intermittent Fasting Lifestyle so it Sticks, New York Times Bestseller, Fast.

She struggled with her size from an early age, and she reflects on how her family influenced her body image. After various military relocations and a series of disappointments with weight loss programs, Tamra discovered intermittent fasting in 2019. Tamra struggled to make intermittent fasting into a lifestyle, however, and it wasn’t until 2023 when Tamra was finally ready to commit to IF for good. Her approach has lead to a weight loss of 39 pounds in around 7 months. Through an alternate-day fasting (ADF) regimen, Tamra has transformed her relationship with food, focusing on healthier choices and paying close attention to ingredients when she shops.The power of community is a recurring theme throughout the episode. Tamra speaks about the support group she's formed within Facebook, her daily conversations with friends, and the support of the Delay, Don’t Deny online community.Tamra shares her non-scale victories—improved energy, fewer headaches, and even the disappearance of skin tags—which highlights the multifaceted benefits of her lifestyle changes.Gin and Tamra emphasize the importance of exercise for health and longevity, focusing on gaining strength rather than just losing weight, and Tamra shares her dedication to running and light strength training.As the episode draws to a close, Tamra leaves the listeners with the advice that has served her well through her transformation: commit to real, substantial lifestyle changes, find a supportive community, and set realistic goals. And most importantly, always find joy in the journey towards a healthier life.Get Gin’s books at: http://www.ginstephens.com/get-the-books.html, including her latest bestseller 28-Day Fast Start Day-By-Day, the Ultimate Guide to Starting (or Restarting) Your Intermittent Fasting Lifestyle so it Sticks, New York Times Bestseller, Fast.

She struggled with her size from an early age, and she reflects on how her family influenced her body image. After various military relocations and a series of disappointments with weight loss programs, Tamra discovered intermittent fasting in 2019. Tamra struggled to make intermittent fasting into a lifestyle, however, and it wasn’t until 2023 when Tamra was finally ready to commit to IF for good. Her approach has lead to a weight loss of 39 pounds in around 7 months. Through an alternate-day fasting (ADF) regimen, Tamra has transformed her relationship with food, focusing on healthier choices and paying close attention to ingredients when she shops.The power of community is a recurring theme throughout the episode. Tamra speaks about the support group she's formed within Facebook, her daily conversations with friends, and the support of the Delay, Don’t Deny online community.Tamra shares her non-scale victories—improved energy, fewer headaches, and even the disappearance of skin tags—which highlights the multifaceted benefits of her lifestyle changes.Gin and Tamra emphasize the importance of exercise for health and longevity, focusing on gaining strength rather than just losing weight, and Tamra shares her dedication to running and light strength training.As the episode draws to a close, Tamra leaves the listeners with the advice that has served her well through her transformation: commit to real, substantial lifestyle changes, find a supportive community, and set realistic goals. And most importantly, always find joy in the journey towards a healthier life.Get Gin’s books at: http://www.ginstephens.com/get-the-books.html, including her latest bestseller 28-Day Fast Start Day-By-Day, the Ultimate Guide to Starting (or Restarting) Your Intermittent Fasting Lifestyle so it Sticks, New York Times Bestseller, Fast.

She first heard of fasting around 2018-2019, but she wasn’t ready and filed the information away. During the early stages of the pandemic in 2020, she heard about it again and was ready to dig in a bit more.The discussion shines a light on Marion's battle with disordered eating, a struggle to break free from the dieting cycle, and her extensive research into the fasting lifestyle, with notable references to books by Jason Fung and Gin's book, Fast Feast Repeat. Marion's intermittent fasting journey is as much about self-discovery and health as it is about weight management.Marion describes the improved clarity of thought and increased productivity that comes with being in a fasted state. Their conversation underscores the personalization and flexibility of fasting schedules, as Marion adjusts her patterns to suit her professional teaching duties and rigorous exercise regimen.Marion has enjoyed improved skin, more muscle tone, an energy surge that fuels her passion for running, and a younger biological age, all while maintaining a naturally intuitive approach to her fasting regimen—a cornerstone of Marion's fasting experience. Gin's message about the importance of not comparing one's fasting experience to another's resonates throughout the episode, endorsing a journey tailored to individual needs and responses.As the episode draws to a close, Marion offers heartfelt advice to newcomers in the fasting community. Her key takeaway encourages individuals to trust their instincts, eschew rigid adherence to fasting schedules, and focus less on the numbers on a scale and more on the transformative journey that lies ahead. Marion's story is a beacon of hope for listeners, evidencing the profound capability of intermittent fasting to revolutionize one's lifestyle when approached with patience and self-compassion.Get Gin’s books at: http://www.ginstephens.com/get-the-books.html, including her latest bestseller 28-Day Fast Start Day-By-Day, the Ultimate Guide to Starting (or Restarting) Your Intermittent Fasting Lifestyle so it Sticks, New York Times Bestseller, Fast.

She was born with digestive issues, and in her teens, she was diagnosed with IBS and hypothyroidism. This began a long road of food obsession for Lisa, as she desperately tried everything to help her IBS symptoms. Though she did not struggle with her weight, Lisa felt the pressure to maintain it. She spent years following diet programs, taking diet pills, and counting calories. Lisa was all-consumed and miserable. In May of 2022, Lisa came across an article on how autophagy could help with hypothyroidism. This ultimately led her to Fast Feast Repeat. Lisa calls her IF journey a mental health journey in healing her distorted thinking. She now enjoys freedom, awareness, and the ability to listen to her body. Lisa’s advice: Fast clean.

Shannon was thin and active as a child but gained weight after discovering she had hypothyroidism. With the overwhelming stress of going through a court trial after being wrongly accused, Shannon ate out of emotion. At the same time, the pandemic hit, and by 2021 she reached her highest weight of 182 pounds. In March of 2021, Shannon’s therapist shared Fast Feast Repeat with her. Shannon has lost almost 20 pounds, takes a lower dose of her thyroid meds, and has experienced incredible freedom. The mental clarity of IF helped Shannon get through a very difficult trial in which she was exonerated. Shannon’s advice: Be consistent with IF. Figure out how to center your window on when you best like to eat. Weight is not the only goal and IF is not a marathon.

In this episode of Intermittent Fasting Stories, Gin talks to Angie Kelly from the Chicagoland area. Are you ready to take your intermittent fasting lifestyle to the next level? There’s nothing better than community to help with that. In the Delay, Don’t Deny community we all embrace the clean fast, and there’s just the right support for you as you live your intermittent fasting lifestyle. You can connect directly with Gin in the Ask Gin group, and she will answer all of your questions personally. If you’re new to intermittent fasting or recommitting to the IF lifestyle, join the 28-Day FAST Start group. After your fast start, join us for support in The 1st Year group. Need tips for long term maintenance? We have a place for that! There are many more useful spaces beyond these, and you can interact in as many as you like. Visit ginstephens.com/community to join us. An annual membership costs just over a dollar a week when you do the math. If you aren’t ready to fully commit for a year, join for a month and you can cancel at any time.

She tried her first diet in eighth grade, which began more than twenty years of yo-yo dieting. By 2011, Angie was at her highest weight and gave up. In February of 2020, Angie’s sister shared Delay, Don’t Deny with her. Angie felt that IF was the answer she had been searching for and started right away. While she hasn’t lost a lot of weight, Angie has healed her relationship with food. She has come to love herself, listens to her body, and has found her value in something more than the scale.

Shannon did not struggle with her weight until after her second pregnancy in 1998, when she tried her first diet. This would lead to decades of diets, calorie counting, weight loss, and weight gain. By April of 2022, Shannon was at her highest weight of 183 pounds. She stumbled upon IF through a Facebook group and read Delay, Don’t Deny in one day. Shannon began her IF that day! She has lost 25 pounds, and though she would like to lose more, Shannon is happier than ever and has found peace with food. Shannon’s advice: Fast clean only. Read Gin’s books. Nail the fast first and give yourself grace. Do you enjoy Intermittent Fasting Stories? You’ll probably also like Gin’s other podcast with cohost Sheri Bullock: Fast. Feast. Repeat.

IF made complete sense to Marlena and she began her journey right away. Marlena has lost 36 pounds. Her knee pain is completely gone and she feels calm around food. Marlena’s advice: Read Gin’s books! Keep going. Know that IF takes time. Do you enjoy Intermittent Fasting Stories? You’ll probably also like Gin’s other podcast with cohost Sheri Bullock: Fast.

But when the pandemic hit, she found herself eating out of boredom and gained more than 15 pounds. When things got back to normal, Grace went back to consistent fasting and lost what she gained. Maintaining her weight loss has been easy. Grace has taken control of her eating and is more mindful about food. Beth heard of IF in 2014 from a yoga instructor, but thought it sounded crazy. In 2022, Beth heard an episode of the IF Stories podcast, and decided to give IF a try. She read Fast Feast, Repeat and began the 28 Day FAST Start. Beth has lost 20 pounds, her joint pain is gone, she feels good in her body, and loves sharing the IF lifestyle with Grace. Grace’s advice: “Keep the faith.
