Jackie Moravek

In this episode of Intermittent Fasting Stories, Gin talks to Jackie Moravek from Michigan.

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.

Jackie is a stay-at-home-mom from Kalamazoo, Michigan. Jackie shares that she struggled with her weight after having children, and she would follow Weight Watchers or Diet Bet to lose the weight.

Jackie learned of IF through her church, where they did a yearly fast as a congregation. Then a friend told her about Fast Feast Repeat.

During early days of the pandemic, "all we did was cook and bake," she remarks. Jackie began her IF journey in the Summer of 2020. She began with 18:6, and gradually moved to 20-22 hour fasts.

Intermittent fasting took away the guilt she felt and allowed her to enjoy the foods she loved. Jackie has lost 30 pounds, sleeps better, has more energy, and feels mentally and emotionally balanced.

Jackie's advice to the new IFer: "Don't feel that you have to change everything all at once. Start small. Increase your fasts gradually. Do one healthy habit at a time!"
