Episode 317: Beth and Grace

GIN STEPHENS
About this episode

In this episode of Intermittent Fasting Stories, Gin talks to Beth and Grace, a mother and daughter who each live the intermittent fasting lifestyle. 

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

In 2018, Grace learned about IF from a friend and began her IF journey. 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. It is tough at the beginning, but it evens out the further you go.”

Beth’s advice: “Read Fast Feast Repeat. Get into the IF community. Don’t give up!”
