Introducing Intermittent Fasting | ‘Gluten Free Weigh In Podcast’
Episode #1 – Introducing co-host Melissa to ‘Gluten Free Weigh In!’ Melissa describes herself as someone who has always been on a diet and is now committed to eating gluten free since her diagnosis with eosinophilic esophagitis. She seems to have found a way of life that really works for her. Intermittent fasting has allowed Melissa to “change WHEN to eat, so she doesn’t have to change WHAT she eats.”*
- About Melissa: I’ve been over 200 pounds since I was 19, approaching 300 by my late 40s. Dieted so many times I’d lost over 1000 pounds in my life, because I always regained + more when the calorie restriction failed.
- Recommitted to fasting in October 2022 and have been doing ‘Alternate Daily Fasting’ since March 2023 with good success! Many ‘Non-Scale Victories’ and hopefully many more to come!
- Age 51 Height 5’6” (well maybe 5’5.75”!)
- Start weight 295 (give or take 5 pounds)
- Current Weight W 167
- Goal Weight to be determined.
- Down from size 4X to size 10
