In this episode of Intermittent Fasting Stories, Gin talks to Stacy Michalec from Cedar Rapids, IA.
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. If you know you’ll want to stay forever, we also have a lifetime membership option available.
IF is free. You don’t need to join our community to fast. But if you’re looking for support from a community of like-minded IFers, we are here for you at ginstephens.com/community.
Stacy is a flight attendant for Southwest Airlines. Stacy tried every diet, detox and diet pill, always looking for the "next thing."
Stacy found IF in September of 2017 through Melanie Avalon's book, What When Wine. This helped Stacy to understand IF and why it worked. She began with 16:8, and quickly moved to 20:4, with some ADF (Alternate Day Fasting). Stacy has lost 15 pounds, going from 158 to 143 pounds, and focuses on maintaining a weight range instead of a specific weight.
Stacy enjoys the energy IF has brought her, along with the freedom from ever having to diet again. And, after years of grueling workouts, she now does the workouts she enjoys!
Stacy's advice to the new IFer: "Start slow if you need to; your body will adjust! Staying busy is key. Ride the wave of hunger. It will pass."
