Bonus Episode -Karen Hobson Fasting in her eighties living proof you are never too old . A true inspiration for us all.
Bio by Karen Hobson
It has been nearly 2 years since my first interview with Graeme -Episode 166 March 2023.
I am now 82 and have been on maintenance since then. I initially lost 54 lbs. I was down to 128. During these last 2 years, my weight has gone between 129 and 132. The highest it has been was 134. I have been weighing daily to determine what foods cause water gain. My clothes still fit the same. Doing a 40-42 hr fast is the only way I can lose the water weight. It seems more challenging for me to do the longer fasts now. With my 60 years of diet history, I don’t want to find myself back up in weight again. IF is my way of life
, and it has been so since August 2017.

Episode 248 -Karen Gaul Fasting in her seventy's proving you are never too old to transform your health.
BIO
I'm 71 years old & have been dieting since the age of
9! Yes, 9 years old. It's hard to believe, but it's true.
My mum had taken me to our family GP with concerns about my development as I was somewhat more significant than my peer group. If more thought had been given, then both mum & the GP would perhaps have realised I was at the start of puberty...earlier than most, but accurate. My early puberty resulted in decades of see-saw dieting, following in the footsteps of my mum, who was a serial dieter...I hadn't known anything other than Mum on a diet. Like so many, I had a hundred & one reasons to diet & can probably tell you my weight at different stages of my life. However, my dad dying of Alzheimer's in 2012 was a massive factor in my decision not to be in the same situation in my older years...at
this stage, I was almost 60! It was time to change all aspects of my life, including sleep, nutrition, movement & mindset. A lower-carb way of life was part of those changes & today, I feel amazing. But a diagnosis of cancer last year made me realise if I hadn't worked so hard, my recovery post hysterectomy & subsequent treatment
may have had an entirely different outcome.

Episode 247-Christine Field A transformation of mind body and soul losing nearly 200 pounds living an intermittent fasting lifestyle
Bio By Christine Field
Rhode Island USA
I have been intermittent fasting for just under seven
years, in addition to trying countless other methods of weight loss. Not all those years were successful because I was doing it wrong and cheating the system. Well, cheating myself is more like it.
Initially, I did it wrong. Unclean. Uneducated about how
to properly fast, etc., the same things you hear your guests say. I have been overweight my entire life. As a child, I was always the biggest one. I believe that I suffer from insulin issues that go undetected through typical medicine. I have strong reactions to sugar to this
day. It’s awful. And I still hope to get it out of my life entirely someday.
My highest weight was 358 pounds. My current weight is
178. I am 5’8”. I went from a size 26 Womens to a size 6. It’s genuinely UNREAL to live in this body.
A couple years ago, I bought Gin’s book and started
listening to her podcasts. That led me to your podcast. Although I love you both, I relate more to your life story in some ways.
I clean fast every day. I have been doing this for about
3 years now. I give myself a 4-6 hour window. I now incorporate two days of shorter fasts because I was getting too thin for my frame. My tastes have changed. My life has changed.
Fasting reconnected me with life again. Taking the food
away and all the accompanying noise put me in a place of openness and readiness to live my best life. I glow. I wake up every day ready to tackle life. I started noticing that the later I ate, the less refreshed I woke up, even if I had fasted.
You often speak about how your weight affects your
parenting. I resonate with that deeply because I have three sporty children. I coach basketball. I run a football league. I want to be agile and fit. I want to be a great example of health and fitness to them and other children as well. I am that now.
Since our last talk, I break my fast most days with
fermented food. I crave it now if I don’t have it. STRANGE! I follow that up with a protein, then vegetables, then carbs.
I am imperfect. I accept that much now. There is no
perfect plan. You live and do your best and that’s what I do. I do not kill myself working out anymore. This is also
new. I set a step goal for myself and enjoy walks whenever I can. I also do a strength video every other day. I fit it in wherever I can.
Another new tip- I’ve stopped thinking so much about what I don’t feel like doing. I just do it. The thinking screws me all up!!

I am a person who lost 60 kg (132 pounds) and successfully kept it off. I will tell you exactly how I did it, and what it is like to live an intermittent fasting lifestyle. I cover my journey, about an ordinary Australian bloke who has found a way to lose weight that is sustainable. Along the way, I found some amazing health benefits as well. I interview dozens of others, who wanted to try it for themselves and have had similar success.
