Hello, my beautiful people, happy Monday. We are getting back at it. It's time after the Thanksgiving

fun to get back on track. And I thought this question from my lovely girl, Lexi, that we're

going to talk through here in a moment will be fantastic on intermittent intermittent fasting, my thoughts on it and kind of building off the former episode I did on intermittent fasting pretty recently. This one's going to have some new stuff in it, though, so definitely keep listening. Before I dive in, I have a review. I want to highlight from Voodoo Child 4. The scale has started to move in the right direction. She says,

I discovered this podcast about a month ago and I love the no-nonsense real approach Lauren takes on.

And postmenopausal tried many, many, many diets and I have even had bariatric surgery,

been an athlete inactive all my life and through all of this, I'm still overweight.

I don't eat much thanks to the bariatric surgery, but I still wasn't losing weight and my surgery was seven years ago, so honestly it only takes you so far. I started tracking my food back in July to try to figure out what I was doing wrong. Low protein, so I up my protein, but no weight loss. What was I doing wrong? So I went in search of a podcast to help me understand what was going on.

I mean, how could I not figure it out after all of these lifetime of diets? I started listening to

Hot Healthy, Never Hungry on my daily walks, started from literally episode one, and slowly started

understanding what a real healthy diet and lifestyle look like. I'm excited to say that I joined the

Fall Fit Challenge and the scale started moving. Halfway through and I get it now. It clicked. I'm excited to say that I joined the fall fit challenge and the scale started moving.

Halfway through and I get it now. It clicked. I will follow Lauren off of a clip.

By the way, I'm also eight pounds down since I started listening slow but steady and I'm loving it.

Oh my gosh. This review like truly just set me over the edge. I am beyond obsessed. And, you know, honestly,

one of my favorite, favorite things is what a woman is struggling, similar to what I did in the free

series we did recently on here, The Missing Piece. Whenever I have a client who's like,

I'm doing a lot of things right, like, what's the missing piece? Hence why I made the series, the missing piece. I love when you guys like grab a plan, work with us privately. And then this light bulb comes off. And you're like, oh my gosh, like this was the missing piece or this is what was holding me back. Or maybe it was like two or three things. And, you know, oftentimes it's more simplicity. It's something missing on your plate. It's the balance of your portions and it's like two or three things and you know oftentimes it's more simplicity it's something missing

on your plate it's the balance of your portions and it's like not rocket science and I love this review

because I think it just really embodies that you can always teach an old dog new tricks meaning

like you've done all these diets like guess what like we're here to do it a different way and honestly

like one of my favorite quotes is if nothing changes, nothing changes. And I'm so glad you trusted us. This is iconic. I'm so proud of you. Eight pounds. I mean, girl, you're almost 10 pounds down, almost 10 pounds down club. And I'm just so appreciative of you being a listener. I'm so appreciative of this review. And I'm just proud of you,

girl. This is fantastic and you're such an inspiration to other people. If you are like Voodoo
