Tell us about yourself!
Hi! I am Vicky. I am from Oro-Medonte Ontario Canada. I love dogs and board games!
What was your goal with the 21 Day Intermittent Fasting Program?
Ultimately, I have big weight loss goals, but the idea of IF being good for those with insulin resistance immediately intrigued me. I am 29 and my period has never been regular. It’s been all over the place. Sometimes, it would be months with no period. I was diagnosed with PCOS and insulin resistance and weight loss is VERY difficult for me. I don’t follow the nutrition plan exactly; I aim to make better choices opting for protein, fat, fibre and greens. That being said, I make sure to stick to the eating window times.
I have been doing IF for about 3 weeks and yesterday, I GOT MY PERIOD. A real period and I am so excited!!!! My body is healing. Giving my body a rest period from food is WORKING. I have been on birth control and Metformin and neither of helped as quickly or as well as IF has (or made me feel as good!). I can’t wait to see more changes as they come!!
Did you try anything in the past?
You name it, I have tried it. Weight Watchers, calorie counting, 21 Day Fix and other intense workout programs
Did you have any hesitations before you got started on the Program?
Yes for sure. I wasn’t sure it would work so that was a big one and I thought I would be hungry with not eating until later in the day. This is not true at all! I also wondered if IF was healthy.
What’s the biggest wellness win you have experienced?
Getting my period back – HUGE WIN! I have lost about 6 pounds, too (in 3 weeks!). Woo hoo! Excited to keep going!
Did you have a “Nutrition Nerd” moment?
I have a hard time picking one. I have learned so much about food. I think the biggest one would be learning how insulin works in the body and where it gets stored.
Is there anything else you want to share with the AENpeeps?
I am so excited to see what weight loss goals I can accomplish using IF and how my body continues to react. SO EXCITED!
