Meet Star McEuen from Arizona!  Star is a 41yo mom of SIX and now grandmother, wife, Fasting Coach, Influencer, Author and downright badass.  Most Star's life was focused on her weight- she always wanted to be “skinny and/or fit”.  She had tried every “diet” out there to lose weight, did all the at home workouts, went to the gym, became a personal trainer herself, hired a nutritionist...and they all lead to the same place, failure, disappoint and defeat. She turned 35 years old and no matter what she did to lose weight before, nothing was working this time and the weight just pilled on. Star's last recorded weight was in May of 2019 at 210lbs. She was at the darkest point in her life - depressed and deteriorating health, tired and felt out of options.  Then in August of 2019, she found intermittent fasting (IF) through her high school best friend who had been sharing about her IF journey on social media.  She read Delay, Don't Deny by Gin Stephens and started with a clean fast aiming for a 19 hour fast and 5 hour eating window practicing an OMAD (One Meal A Day) lifestyle. By February 2020 she had reached her first goal weight of 140lbs. In April of 2020 she started implementing one "meal-less" day a week and by August of 2020 (one year of IF) she had lost a total of 81lbs and has maintained that loss every since! IF has taught Star to be mindful of everything that goes into her body and to eat for nutrition and purpose, it has taught her to think nutrients NOT calories. She is no longer a prisoner to food, food is not the enemy -  too much circulating insulin is the problem. IF helps us regulate All our hormones and helps us learn how to trust ourselves around food again. IF truly is THE health plan with a side effect of weight loss -  everyone should be an intermittent faster whether they have weight to lose or just for the health benefits alone! https://www.instagram.com/lovemyifinglife/ https://www.amazon.com/Women-Action-Takers-Gained-Losing/dp/1956665056 Support the show https://fastandfabulouspodcast.com Support the Show. https://fastandfabulouspodcast.com https://www.buzzsprout.com/1911888/subscribe https://patreon.com/user?u=97837207 For my absolute FAVORITE clean fast safe electrolytes, Trace Minerals: https://creatoriq.cc/4cIHaXD #TraceMineralsPartner
