Episode 19 -Donna Waiariki, a mother of 7 children who lost 27 kg (59 pounds) with intermittent fasting and also found relief from Fibromyalgia.

33 minutes

Donna is 55 years old, originally from New Zealand and now calls Perth Western Australia home. She is a busy mum of seven children and they range from age from 33 down to a set of twins who are 14. Like so many people, she tells us that she feels like she has been dieting her whole entire life. After the birth of her twins, she put on quite a bit of weight and at one point got up to just over 100 kg (220 pounds) which is the heaviest she had ever been. Donna explains that in 2017 she read a book called The Obesity Code by Dr Jason Fung, and from there she just started searching for information about intermittent fasting and how to do it.

While searching for the information she came across the book Delay Don't Deny by Gin Stephens which she found when reading, it was like talking to an old friend. Donna started her fasting protocol with an 18-6. She fasted for eighteen hours and had a six-hour period where she ate in her day. After a few months, Donna started to see some differences and the weight started to fall off at a good rate.

Twenty-one years ago, Donna developed fibromyalgia. This was a huge shock and she explains that it took quite a few years to come to terms with that. She explains during this episode how fasting has changed her outlook on life and how her fibromyalgia management has greatly improved with intermittent fasting.

Donna and I talk candidly about why loving ourselves first is so integral to living a sustainable intermittent fasting lifestyle. Donna wraps up the show by giving some great advice for newcomers to the lifestyle and has some great tips for busy mums.
