In this episode of Intermittent Fasting Stories, Gin talks to Willow Sanders from Northern California.
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.
Willow is a Doula and a busy mother of four kids. She grew up in a home where sugar was strictly forbidden. She recalls sneaking it, and as an adult had no control over it.
Willow was put on her first diet at age twelve, followed by another diet at age fourteen. By the time she was twenty, Willow found herself at over 200 pounds. Countless diets would continue until Willow turned forty, when she could no longer lose weight no matter how hard she tried.
In early 2020, friends shared Delay, Don't Deny with her. "It sounded like magic," she recalls. She began with 16:8, and gradually moved to 20:4. Willow does not weigh herself, so instead of a goal weight, she has a goal body. She is now a size six, and is happy with what she sees in the mirror.
Willow's advice: "Read the books! Listen to the podcasts! You need to know why you're doing IF. Remind yourself: hunger is not an emergency. And as Gin says: delay, don't deny!"
