Jalene Ellis Weigand is a 53-year year old wife, preschool teacher, nanny, life coach, owner of a small  natural body product company and a mom of many rescued animals. To keep herself in shape over the years, she tried all the fad diets and popular exercise programs. After so many years of  drastic calorie restrictions and adrenal fatigue from exercises, she found herself no longer able to maintain a healthy body. After experiencing the hardships of 2020, and then going through menopause...she found herself living in a body she didn’t even recognizes anymore. She was in complete denial of the amount of weight she had gained by hiding in stretchy yoga pants and the forgiving fabric of maxi skirt. 

After seeing some pictures of herself posted on social media, she could no longer hide and decided it was time for her to find her way back to health. She hadn’t stepped on a scale in years and decided it was time to take a look. She was surprised to see a 35 pound gain since the last time she had weighed, which felt like a lot on her 5’3 size body. It definitely was time to find some answers she decided.

After getting no answers from her primary physician, she did a deep dive into the holistic and integrative health care system. She found a team of women who were able to find the root cause of her weight gain, sluggish metabolism, and low energy. She was working with a local obgyn who had a podcast on women’s health, this podcast had a guest, Laurie Lewis, who is an intermittent fasting leader.  That day Jalene started her intermittent fasting journey. She found Gin Stephens, Dr. Jason Fung, and Graeme Currie.  She successfully has lost all of her menopausal weight gain, reduced her inflammation, and is now wearing the same size of clothes she wore in her 20’s. Clean intermittent fasting is Jalene’s forever lifestyle as she’s approaching her two year fasting anniversary and wants to share her story in hopes of helping other women who feel at a loss after menopause.
