Coach❤️Theah 30 day Challenge - going low carb, primal, learning to about Protein Days and how to fast. We are down to the last 5 days of the challenge and I want you to learn how to fast for a day.
Fasting definition “To abstain from”.... you can fast from food, alcohol, chewing gum, exercising, running etc...
❤️What are the health benefits
❤ Reduces Hunger ❤ Boosts Weight Loss ❤ Suppresses inflammation
❤ Improves mood ❤ Improves Focus ❤ Repairs slow metabolism
❤ Help with diabetes ❤ Improves Cholesterol ❤ Increases testosterone
❤ Regrows brain cells ❤ Lower blood pressure ❤ Strengthens your immune system
❤ Fights off cancer cells
This is why I started fasting and you should consider it too....
✔It's Free
✔Saves you money (think if you give up eating out 1 meal per day
✔Anyone can extend their fast (think you start fasting when you sleep, if you are getting 8-9 hours of sleep, you are fasting for 8-9 hours already
❤️So... Monday will be a fasting day?
Option # 1: Alternate day fasting – Eat on Sunday - Skip Monday
❤ Liquids allowed: Coffee, Tea
❤ Modified: you can have bone broth, Jell-o
Option #2 - 24 hours fast – don’t eat for 24 hours (Time restricted eating)
❤ Clock your stop eating time on Sunday and wait 24 hours to eat on Monday
❤ Liquids allowed: Coffee, Tea
❤ Modified: you can have bone broth, Jell-o
❤️Other "modified fasts" choices if you are a beginner...
❤ Alternate day fasting – on ADF days you max your calories to 500-700 calories
❤ Protein Sparing Modified Fast - this is when you eat high protein, little fat & carbs (I prefer this modified fast because it helps you maintain muscle mass)
❤ Fat Fast - this is when you consume fat only during your fast
❤ Twice a week method (5:2 method) - 2 days per week you drop calories to 25%
❤️Where are we on our fasting journey?
✅Stage I: Follow a 7-day detox off sugar, refined carbs and transition your body to being fat adapted following my 21 day plan
✅ Stage II: Stop snacking – Eat 2- 3 meals a day, reduce refined carbohydrates, sugars and starches and add more fat to your meals – your eating window should be 16:8 (fasting for 16 hours, including sleeping time, eating for 8 hours)
✅ Stage III: Skip breakfast or skip dinner (whichever you prefer) This will start to stretch you eating window to 18:6. This should feel very comfortable
If you have followed my 30 day plan ~We are at Stage IV 🙌
🆕Stage IV: Reduce your eating window. A 20:4 intermittent fasting plan is ideal for fast weight loss. This gives your body 20 hours of fasting. With this plan, you’re eating window could be 10-2 pm, 12-4 pm, 1-5 pm, 2-6 pm, etc...

Coach❤️Theah Daily Tips:
❤️ What to drink during your fast: Water... hot or cold
❤️Coffee, Tea, Water, Lemon water, Electrolytes, carbonated water
❤️ Stevia & Monk Fruit
❤️ These items will break your fast from an autophagy perspective but, not from a weight-loss/fat burning prospective
❤️ Bone Broth
❤️ Heavy Cream or other fat in your coffee or tea
if you IF (Intermittent fast) and skip breakfast, your first meal should still be focused on lean protein.
❤️ Bone Broth, Turkey, Chicken Breast, Eggs, Egg Whites️ (60-90 minutes later have some lower glycemic carbs)
