He shares his journey with intermittent fasting, beginning with his upbringing in a religious household where he was expected to suppress his emotions. He describes how food became a source of comfort and how this led to struggles with weight throughout his life. Marvin recounts his early attempts at dieting and how he discovered intermittent fasting through podcasts during his long newspaper delivery routes. This discovery marked a turning point, helping him to manage his weight and emotions more effectively.Marvin emphasizes the importance of consistency in fasting, noting that it has been his greatest victory. He discusses how tracking his progress with tools like Happy Scale has motivated him to maintain his fasting routine. Marvin also shares insights into how his taste in food has evolved, preferring more satisfying and nutritious options over processed foods. He highlights the significance of setting small, achievable goals and how these have contributed to his overall success and well-being.Marvin's advice to new intermittent fasters is to start small and not feel ashamed if they can't go all out immediately. He stresses the importance of focusing on one's identity and living from that perspective, rather than striving for external validation. This approach, he believes, is crucial for long-term success and personal fulfillment.Join Gin in the new Fast Feast Repeat app for The Grown-Up Year: 52 Weeks to Listen, Play, and Nourish, as well as a growing collection of intermittent fasting resources.

Jacqui Lewis fasting highway bio update. Came to intermittent fasting the usual circuitous route of Weight Watchers, counting calories, overexercising, and undereating. Discovered fasting through Gin Stevens ' fast-feast-repeat. That was in November 2021, and I never looked back. Since then, I have not missed one day of fasting with the exception of the day I had open-heart surgery. I have fasted through many vacations, many trips, a new job, a death in the family, and the memorial of my mom. Fasting is flexible for me and the greatest thing I've ever found. I went from 145 11/21 to 125 by spring of 22, also losing17 inches of fluff. I stay there at 125…now and then going up to the top of my range, 128. If I get up to the top of my range, I rein it in & pull back on candy, desserts, cookies and non-alcoholic beer. If I get too low, which I have dipped down to 121, I try to drink protein shakes in addition to my one meal a day. In the beginning, I clean fasted, and to this day I always clean fast. It took me two years to tolerate black coffee; now I love it. I still drink creamy coffee in my windows. My windows never get below 14 hours. That's my absolute shortest, and I go anywhere from 18 to 22 hours on a normal day. I generally break my fast with creamy coffee and a handful of nuts. Sometimes I have a snack and then a meal; often, now that I started a new job, I have creamy coffee, nuts, and a meal and later a snack before I close my window  Come and join our Patreon Community or book a one-on-one call with Graeme Graeme is available to work one-on-one with you, and you can book in with him at the website www.thefastinghighway.com To join Graeme's Patreon and get help every week in a group setting and through regular audio pieces exclusive to Patreon members, head to www.patreon.com/thefastinghighwayHis book is widely available on Amazon and all good online book retailers in Kindle, Paperback, and audiobook formats.

She recounts her experiences with various diets and the impact of stress on her weight.

Get ready for another great show with Ben Azadi, author of the new book KetoFlex. Ben has an incredible story—after struggling with obesity and depression in his early 20s, he lost 80 pounds and completely transformed his health. Today he's helping people better understand metabolism, fasting, and the ketogenic diet by simplifying complex science and turning it into practical, actionable habits that don't feel overwhelming. We talk about why eating too close to bedtime can interfere with your body's biggest fat-burning window of the day, why Ben believes in making just one "tweak a week" instead of overhauling your life overnight, and why he says, "You don't lose weight to get healthy—you get healthy to lose weight." We also discuss metabolic flexibility, the role of hyperinsulinemia and seed oils in today's obesity epidemic, why keto isn't meant to be a forever diet, and the simple mindset shifts that make lasting change possible—including Ben's memorable reminder: "If you treat your health casually, you'll end up a casualty." Ben also shares the productivity habits that have helped him write multiple bestselling books while staying focused on his mission of helping others reclaim their health. Ben Azadi is a bestselling author, keynote speaker, and functional diagnostic nutritionist known as "The Health Detective." After struggling with obesity and depression in his early 20s, he transformed his health by losing 80 pounds and reducing his body fat to 6%—an experience that inspired his mission to help others improve their metabolic health. Today, Ben is the founder of Keto Kamp, where he educates people on intermittent fasting, the ketogenic diet, and metabolic flexibility. He is also the host of the award-winning Metabolic Freedom podcast, which was named Keto Podcast of the Year at the 2022 Metabolic Health Summit. TIMESTAMPS: Ben Azadi explains in this podcast some complex scientific insights about sleep, about metabolic health, about how the body's supposed to burn fat while we sleep, about what's going on during the day and how to manage this global obesity epidemic. [01:05] Ben's story of being a very unhealthy depressed young man involves an 80-pound weight loss he experienced. This started his journey toward better health. He will explain the basics of the ketogenic diet. [04:55] If you treat your health casually, you'll end up a casualty. If you are 23 years old or 63 years old, your body will respond when you change the signals you're giving it. [10:10] What does it take to get motivated and inspired to take on the responsibility of managing your own health? [16:31] When you eat too close to bedtime, you're missing out on the most important window within a 24-hour period for fat loss and fat burning. [18:14] If you eat the same meal in the morning and evening with exactly the same calories and micronutrients, the insulin response is different. [22:44] When you are most insulin sensitive in the morning, is that a good time to fast? [28:40] If you put rules and guidelines into your life, that is a really nice method of succeeding. [32:34] Start with whole foods, start with good sleep, start with movement and then build from there. [37:33] Keto Flex is a spin on metabolic flexibility. It's do keto but don't do it forever. [38:22] When you're in ketosis, it signals to your body that you're going through kind of like a famine. It's a stressor to the body. [43:13] How did Ben lose 80 pounds in nine months? You don't lose weight to get healthy, you get healthy to lose weight. [48:54] Are seed oils promoting hyperinsulinemia or are there other things at play here that's interfering with our ability to burn stored body fat? [52:33] The definition of whole food is that it is a single ingredient food. [58:11] What kind of application does the consumption of exogenous ketones have? [58:42] Ben explains his KetoFlex plan here. [01:01:04] Ben shares some of his secrets of managing his busy life, writing books, teaching, podcasting and keeping that 80 pounds off.

It started with a simple question — does intermittent fasting live up to the hype?Ken and Graham both have opinions. And as usual, those opinions don't fully line up.Ken makes the case that the real benefits of intermittent fasting don't kick in until you hit that 16 to 18 hour window — and that for diabetics specifically, the morning hours are full of landmines that can derail a fast before it even gets started. Blood sugar drops during a morning workout, coffee, treating a low — any of these technically breaks the fast and changes the equation entirely.Graham takes a different angle. He's not opposed to intermittent fasting in theory, but his relationship with food goes far deeper than timing windows and eating schedules. And that's where the conversation takes a turn nobody saw coming.What starts as a nutrition debate evolves into one of the most honest conversations Ken and Graham have had about food, culture, identity, and how the way you were raised shapes everything about how you eat — including how you manage your blood sugar. Graham introduces a phrase that might just end up on a t-shirt — TFD for life — and explains what it means to live with a diabetes philosophy that was forged not just by medical advice, but by culture, family, and lived experience.This one goes places. And it's better for it.

I'm a 39-year-old from Buford, Georgia. A wife, mother, and servant leader in the aluminium industry, navigating one of the busiest seasons of life while balancing a demanding career, family, and a commitment to living a life rooted in wellness, purpose, and joy. For decades, food was my comfort, and I struggled with metabolic illness and an unhealthy relationship with eating. In October 2019, as I honoured the 10-year anniversary of losing my son, Jacob, I made a decision that forever changed my life. I discovered clean intermittent fasting, and what began as a weight-loss journey became a complete transformation. Since then, I've lost +/- 165 pounds and reached the maintenance phase, but the greatest victory wasn't the number on the scale. I let go of destructive habits, rebuilt my relationship with food, learned to nourish my body through every season of life, and discovered the freedom that comes from focusing on what I can control. My journey became a complete renewal of mind, body, and spirit, replacing shame with confidence and limitations with strength. After living with PCOS and metabolic resistance for more than a decade, intermittent fasting helped me restore metabolic health, reduce inflammation, and finally break free from years of disordered eating and dieting. It didn't just change my body. It gave me my life back. Today, I'm passionate about encouraging others to invest in themselves because self-care isn't selfish; it's essential. In this episode, I share a personal life update, discuss intentionality, navigate inflammation after surgery, master portion control, and explain why intermittent fasting continues to give me my life back. Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply ready for change, I hope my story reminds you that transformation is possible. It starts with one decision, one step, and the courage to believe your best chapter is still ahead.

Since discovering intermittent fasting in 2020 through a WW community message board, she's reclaimed her health, shed 20 pounds, and found freedom from sugar addiction that haunted her for decades. Despite multiple attempts and setbacks, Belle's journey reveals a powerful truth: the key to lasting change is understanding your own body and making honest, sustainable choicesIn this episode, Belle shares how intermittent fasting transformed her relationship with food and her body. She discusses her long history with weight struggles, from childhood dieting to lap band surgery, and how fasting and giving up sugar finally broke her cycle. You'll discover how she navigates special occasions like cruises, manages cravings, and uses simple tricks—like parking further away or tracking her progress—to stay aligned with her health goals. Belle emphasizes the importance of tuning in to your body's signals, avoiding diet obsession, and crafting a personalized approach that works for YOU.Gin and Belle break down practical insights including her experiment of one—trying different strategies until she found what truly sticks—and how the "quietness" of fasting creates space for self-awareness and honest self-talk. If you've ever felt trapped in the cycle of dieting, or overwhelmed by how to finally get control over sugar cravings, this episode offers hope, clarity, and a reminder: your body's resilience is greater than you think. Belle's advice to new intermittent fasters is to be patient, listen to your body, and trust the process, as reclaiming your health isn't about perfection—it's about patience, listening, and gentle tweaks.Join Gin in the new Fast Feast Repeat app for The Grown-Up Year: 52 Weeks to Listen, Play, and Nourish, as well as a growing collection of intermittent fasting resources.

For years we've been told that if fasting is good, then fasting longer must be better.That simply isn't true.Fasting is one of the most powerful healing tools we have, but it's also a stressor. Like exercise, the benefits don't come from the stress itself. They come from how well your body recovers afterward.In this solo episode, Dr. Mindy explains how to tell whether fasting is supporting your metabolism or pushing your nervous system beyond its limits. You'll learn the five green lights that signal your body is adapting well, the five red flags that tell you it's time to pull back, and simple ways to adjust your fasting practice based on your hormones, stress levels, and stage of life.Whether you're new to fasting or you've been doing it for years, this episode will help you stop guessing and start working with your body instead of against it.In this episode you'll learn:Why fasting is a beneficial stressor, but only in the right doseThe difference between metabolic stress and chronic stressHow your nervous system influences your fasting resultsFive signs fasting is working with your bodyFive red flags that indicate your fasting routine needs to changeWhy sleep, energy, hormones, and muscle are powerful feedback systemsHow to adjust your fasting practice based on your cycle and life stageThe importance of recovery, refeeding, and metabolic flexibilityWhy fasting should always be personalizedResources MentionedDr. Mindy's BooksReset AcademyBurn Fat Like a Girl: Your Natural GLP-1 ResetNervous System Free ResourceLMNTBEAM MineralsStandard Process EZ MagFor more resources related to today's episode, visit the podcast episode page: drmindypelz.com/ep350Connect with Dr. Mindy:Join Reset AcademyWatch the episodes on YouTubeFollow Dr. Mindy on InstagramSubscribe to Dr. Mindy's newsletterDisclaimer: This podcast is intended for educational and informational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional medical advice.

Born and raised in Southern California, she spent the early part of her career immersed in the fast-paced, high-stress world of stage management and event production. However, when it came to building her family, she made an intentional shift into education—a career change that allowed her to dedicate more time to raising her four wonderful children alongside her husband. Together for 32 incredible years, this powerhouse couple is gearing up for their next big adventure: a move to Central Kentucky in 2027 to start a brand-new chapter on their hobby farm.But beneath the surface of a busy, fulfilling life, our guest carried a heavy burden for decades. Her struggle with weight began all the way back in adolescence, a challenging period when she turned to comfort eating to cope with her parents' tumultuous divorce. Like so many of us, she found herself caught in a frustrating, lifelong cycle of emotional eating and dieting protocols that just didn't last.Then, she discovered fasting. Her path wasn't an overnight success story; instead, it was an evolution. She spent a year and a half navigating the waters of 'dirty fasting,' trying to find her footing and figure out what worked. But everything changed in September 2024, when she committed to 'true,' clean intermittent fasting after finding Gin Stephens' Delay Don't Deny. That pivotal shift unlocked a level of freedom, health, and healing she hadn't experienced in years. Come and join our Patreon Community or book a one-on-one call with Graeme Graeme is available to work one-on-one with you, and you can book in with him at the website www.thefastinghighway.com To join Graeme's Patreon and get help every week in a group setting and through regular audio pieces exclusive to Patreon members, head to www.patreon.com/thefastinghighwayHis book is widely available on Amazon and all good online book retailers in Kindle, Paperback, and audiobook formats. global stage and is sought after as a mentor and coach by people from all over the world.Graeme has become one of the leading advocates of Intermittent Fasting on the global stage.

Send us Fan MailKen Swartz, known as “Ken the Scientist,” was working on radiation and fusion research when he experienced a result that didn't fit the science he trusted. With a background in economics, education, and leading multiple research laboratories, his work led him into projects connected to radiation and the MOXY fusion reactor.During that time, he began using Carbon 60 as a radiation protectant — something he already understood from earlier scientific research. A few months in, he started noticing unexpected shifts in his energy and overall health, enough to keep going. Then, about eight months later, a routine visit changed everything. A previously identified age-related vision issue (dry macular degeneration) was no longer visible — something his optometrist had never seen before.That moment, in 2016, led Ken to dedicate his work to the research, study, and production of Carbon 60. Today, he is co-founder of C60 Power, a company focused on producing high purity C60 using certified organic oils and a clean, solvent free process.

On episode 753 of 40+ Fitness! Today, Coach Allan sits down with clinical nutritionist Autumn Bates to dive deep into how our approach to eating needs to change as we age, especially after 40. Tired of hearing conflicting advice about calories, macros, and meal frequency? Autumn Bates shares a science-backed, practical framework that steers away from micromanaging every calorie and instead focuses on a bigger-picture approach to nutrition. In this episode, we explore what real satiety means and how our hormones drive hunger and fullness, why three balanced meals can support both gut health and weight management, and why prioritizing high-quality protein can make eating well simpler—and far more satisfying.

He shares how a Christmas trip and a growing awareness of his health concerns pushed him to make a change at the start of 2024. What began as a few days of fasting in solidarity with his daughter's medical prep eventually led him to Gin Stephens' books, then into intermittent fasting. He began on Labor Day of 2024 with the 28-day Fast Start Day by Day book. He explains that the early days were hard, but having a day-by-day roadmap helped him stay committed when his old habits and fears about hunger tried to pull him back.As Richard kept going, he lost weight, moved through plateaus, and started uncovering the deeper reasons he had used food for comfort, celebration, and convenience. He talks openly about a lifelong pattern of oversized portions, family food traditions, and the mental tug of wanting to “finish what's on the plate,” and how fasting has helped him break that cycle. A CGM also gave him a powerful wake-up call, showing him how certain breads, buns, and sugary drinks spiked his glucose and left him crashing, while simpler meals with protein and vegetables kept him satisfied much longer.Richard's story becomes especially encouraging in the way fasting has changed how he lives, not just how he eats. He's stronger, walking more, running in short bursts again, and even planning hikes and more joyful movement like dancing, because he wants fitness to feel fun rather than punishing. He closes with the advice that new intermittent fasters should jump in and start now, because waiting for the “perfect” time only delays the change they want.Join Gin in the new Fast Feast Repeat app for The Grown-Up Year: 52 Weeks to Listen, Play, and Nourish, as well as a growing collection of intermittent fasting resources.
