In this episode of Intermittent Fasting Stories, Gin talks to Michelle Chow from Hamilton, Ontario. 

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. 

Michelle is an adult educator. She struggled with her weight throughout her childhood, and was teased for it. She became obese after college and stayed that way well after having her children. 

Michelle began her IF journey in 2020 when her sister was diagnosed with breast cancer. Her sister heard that IF would help with chemotherapy, and Michelle began IF to support her sister in her journey. Michelle’s sister wound up not needing chemotherapy, but because Michelle felt so great, she decided to continue with IF. She has gone from 248 pounds to 140 pounds! 

Michelle’s advice: “Take measurements in the beginning. Give yourself time to get used to IF. Read Delay Don’t Deny. You’re not denying, you’re simply delaying!”
