In this episode of Intermittent Fasting Stories, Gin talks to Troy Peterson from Madison, WI.
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.
Troy is a professional truck driver and also a musician. He shares his early life experiences growing up in a tavern environment, his battle with alcoholism, and his experience with substance abuse, ending with a recovery process via a twelve-step program and inpatient rehab at the age of 34.
Gin and Troy talk about the importance of non-scale victories and the remarkable improvements in Troy’s physical, mental, and spiritual health since he started intermittent fasting. They touch on the misconceptions about eating windows and the metabolic benefits of finding a balanced approach to fasting.
Troy’s story is not just about intermittent fasting – it’s about personal growth, self-discovery, and the sometimes difficult path to self-improvement. He highlights how his commitment to change has led to his body feeling satisfied and on a path to better health.
Advice from Troy:
Initially, early on, I wanted to preach on this to anybody that listened. Now, I have a link on my phone and a picture of Gin’s book just saved in my photos, and I can just show people. If you really want to know what I’m doing and about the changes you see in me, this is it. If you really want to know, get this book, read the book, and then we can talk about it. As for IF, just trust in it. No matter how it works in the first week or the first month or whatever, just trust in it.
