Intermittent Fasting 2-Year Update | My SURPRISING Results

5:58 AM 3 Comments

 

Two years ago I decided I wanted to lose weight. I wasn't happy at my current weight and wanted to lose at least ten pounds. I decided to try intermittent fasting after watching a few videos about it on YouTube (don't you just love YouTube?)

I ended up losing over 30 lbs and returning to my weight from my youth. The weight loss was surprising enough but I have also been blown away by the other health benefits from intermittent fasting. Watch my two-year update video to hear all about it. I also answer your most pressing questions. I hope you enjoy today's video!

Intermittent Fasting What I Eat in a Day | 16:8 Method

6:34 AM 4 Comments

 


I'm sharing another Intermittent Fasting What I Eat in a Day video for you with two days of meals. 


I do the 16:8 method of Intermittent Fasting, which means I fast for 16 hours and have an 8 hour eating window during the day. I do not do a special diet (like keto), but rather, try to eat a well-balanced regular diet. This video is not intending to give nutritional advice. If you wish to do intermittent fasting, please consult your doctor first. These videos are for entertainment purposes only.

Intermittent Fasting 18-Month Update | The Results are In

5:52 AM 3 Comments

 


Six months have passed since I did my Intermittent Fasting one year update and I have so much more to share with you. I'm dishing on all of the positive changes I'm seeing in my health after adopting intermittent fasting for the past 18 months. 


Disclaimer: Please consult your doctor before trying intermittent fasting, especially if you are currently taking medications. Intermittent Fasting is not advised for women who are pregnant or breastfeeding.


The last time I gave you an update, I shared that I lost 29lbs through intermittent fasting. When I reached that weight, I no longer wished to lose any more, so I made a few changes. Mainly, I introduced cream back into my morning coffee, which I was previously drinking black. I was curious about whether the weight loss would plateau or if I would continue to lose weight. I'm happy to say that the most I ever lost was one more pound and I have happily plateaued at my current weight. 

⚜️ Time Stamps for the video 0:00 Disclaimer 1:11 Did I lose more weight? 3:05 What I adjusted 5:24 Weight loss and clothing 6:19 The biggest change: my face 8:20 IF & inflammation 9:13 The feeling of being done 10:38 Snacking is so not chic 11:33 Consumption snobbery 12:34 Clarity of mind 13:16 Portion sizes 14:52 Weight loss plateau 16:26 The rate it occurred 17:27 What time do I eat? 18:35 Tips to avoid hunger pains 19:15 What time do my kids eat? 20:39 Do I do it every day? 21:00 What about a night out? 22:24 Email from Marianne 25:15 Mrs. Beeton & fasting

Everyone will have different results with intermittent fasting and my results might not necessarily be your results. I have also seen major improvements to my health in other areas too. I used to suffer from chronic sinus infections, which contributed to an overall puffy effect on my face, as you can see in this "before" picture. 


I am not sure if there is a correlation, but my chronic sinus infections have ceased since I began intermittent fasting and you can notice the swelling and inflammation has left my face as is evidenced in this "after" picture: 


You can also see the weight loss dramatically in my old clothing, which used to fit me quite snugly. 


Overall, I am very happy with doing the intermittent fasting 16:8 method. It has become a way of life for me. In today's video I share details about all of the results I've noticed. 


I also answer many of your questions. If you have further questions, please leave them for me in the comments and I can potentially address them in a follow-up video.

Comment of the Week

Haley M. writes, "My nana is a lot of inspiration to me. From her French-style decorating, her stories of travels to Rome and far away countries, and her tips in the kitchen, I love her so much! She’s older and quite lonely now, but she loves to read and keep cultured. I share your videos when I visit her on Tuesdays, and they make her week! We chat about the Chic Assignment topics and it’s just enriched our relationship even more. So thank you, for extending past the Chic Society ❤️"
