You are right on the money about insulin. Intermittent Fasting is fantastic. I’m gradually losing a couple of pounds per month and I’m eating normal stuff.
Dr. Jason Fung did a series about IF on YouTube which is based on his research and experience as a kidney doctor. I highly recommend it.
Absolutely. My eyes have been opened after reading Dr. Fung's book. I've been struggling just to lose 5-10 pounds for a couple of years. Reduced diet and increased exercise didn't work. I started IF two weeks ago and have lost 6 pounds already. I do expect to plateau but persistence will win out.
The first thing I had to do was get my head right and accept the fact that I can no longer eat the way I used to. I don't look at chili dogs the same way. Or potato salad. Once you have the keys, unlock the door and even if it weighs a ton...keep pushing.
