| 0:00.0 | Developing how I eat as part of my identity means that I eat during the summer the same way I do |
| 0:08.2 | during the winter, the spring, or the fall. Now, of course, there might be some food options that |
| 0:14.2 | are available in the summer because, you know, fresh vegetables or different things, but how I see |
| 0:20.7 | myself as an eater, what types of |
| 0:23.6 | food I eat overall does not change throughout the year. |
| 0:34.2 | Welcome to another episode of the fasting method podcast. This is Coach Terry Lance, and I am coming to you today solo. I wanted to do a little bit of a kind of introduction to a topic that we're going to be talking about over the next month at TFM. So if if you are part of the Tfm community, or if you've |
| 0:58.0 | been thinking about joining the community, just wanted to give you a little heads up about our |
| 1:03.1 | upcoming topic of summer socializing and vacations. Now, some people might question, why would this be important to me in this |
| 1:12.4 | fasting journey? And yet, it is probably one of the most typically asked questions. How should |

| 1:27.4 | fasting schedule or eating appropriately once during this summer? How could I possibly keep up with my fasting schedule or eating |
| 1:29.2 | appropriately once it becomes summer? So we are already into summer at this point, but we've got |

| 1:41.8 | would start a little bit and tell you how I used to navigate summer and vacations. |
| 1:48.8 | Early in my adult life, I was a middle school teacher. |
| 1:53.0 | So summer was freedom to me. |
| 1:56.1 | It meant no longer having to go to work every day. |
| 1:58.9 | Now, of course, at some point, I started taking |
| 2:01.0 | college classes to get my master's degree and things, but summer really just kind of spelled |
| 2:07.5 | freedom to me. Didn't have to get up early. I didn't have to do lesson plans. I didn't have to |
| 2:14.2 | face a hundred of middle school students every day. |
| 2:18.0 | So it was really this kind of exciting time. |
