GIN STEPHENS
About this episode

In this episode of Intermittent Fasting Stories, Gin talks to Triple J from Anniston, AL.

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 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

Triple J works for the federal government, he’s a minister at his church, and he wears a lot of other hats, as well. Triple J shares his inspiring journey of health transformation through intermittent fasting and lifestyle changes. Starting from a background of spiritual fasting, Triple J faced significant health challenges, including type two diabetes and a high A1C level. Through a combination of keto and intermittent fasting, he successfully lowered his A1C and ultimately came off all medications and put his diabetes into remission. He discusses the importance of clean fasting, listening to his body, and adapting his diet to maintain his health. The conversation also touches on his heart surgery and the ongoing journey of recovery and family legacy. At one point in his journey, Triple J experienced some self-sabotage, and he needed to work through that challenge. He explains how community support has been instrumental in achieving health goals. He emphases the power of mindset and having patience in the process. Triple J highlights the significance of sharing experiences within a supportive community and offers encouragement for those starting their own health journeys. As the episode ends, Triple J tells new intermittent fasters to be patient—with both yourself, and the process. Don’t try to do everything all at once, and know that good things take time and can’t be rushed.
