This week we are talking about one of my favorite topics, intermittent fasting! Why is it a topic I love? Because it is a seriously effective method to lose weight, end dreaded weight fluctuations and enjoy incredible energy all day long. You’ve probably heard how great it is for weight loss but it might surprise you to learn that it can truly enhance your beauty leading to better skin, hair, nails, and more. Beauty from the inside out. It also offers several phenomenal health benefits, it’s amazing. Laurie Lewis of Fast Forward Wellness and Certified Coach, specializing in Intermittent Fasting shares her insights and experience with intermittent fasting and how it literally changed her life by resolving her menopausal issues and 50 pound weight gain.
If you’ve thought about trying it but have resisted because you fear it will be too hard or you’ll starve, it’s actually much easier than you think and it’s not about starvation! After you hear my fantastic conversation with Laurie, you will be highly intrigued and motivated to give it a try. Our bodies need a rest and recovery period from digesting food in order to run at an optimal level for cell regeneration, fat burning and disease control. However, it must be done properly to be effective.

That’s the objective – not just living a long life but feeling good and being happy while enjoying a beautiful quality of life.
