Intermittent Fasting: How & Why I Got Started

It was the end of March, 2022, and I was closing in on my sixtieth birthday. And I was starting to freak out and knew I had to take action. Intermittent fasting seemed to make the most sense to me, and over the course of the following year I lost more than fifty pounds.

On this page I’ll share what I did to lose the weight, how I continue to stay on my intermittent fasting schedule, pitfalls I’ve experienced, and resources to help you have a better understanding of what intermittent fasting is about and how it just might work for you.

Intermittent fasting has helped me change my relationship with food, and if that’s something you think you need, I hope I can help.

Welcome!
