Before I had heard of Dr. Mindy
Menopause did not go well for me. I gained 50 lbs in two years just because I existed. It was beyond discouraging to try so many things and have none of them work. They didn’t work because they didn’t deal with my root problem, which was metabolic syndrome. I was insulin resistant, though my blood work showed “normal” I was no such thing. I had deteriorating health on all fronts due to low sex hormones. I finally found HRT therapy that alleviated much of my rapid decline, but didn’t do anything for my expanding middle. My daughter found Fast Like a Girl and her results were immediate and impressive. She got her menstrual cycle back and her moods began to balance, so I had to try this. I devoured that book, watched videos for days, read The Menopause Reset, and was on my way! I had Epstein Barr Virus, so I used that fasting schedule when I began. I lost 24 lbs that first two months. I am 18 months now into this sustainable lifestyle and 55 lbs gone, years added back to my life, no Epstein Barr active, loads of energy, lifting weights regularly, feeling stronger, happier, better, and in control of my health. I can’t say enough about how effective this way of cycling fasts and eating for hormonal health is. I am 54 years old and have so much hope, resources, and tools to make my golden years the most healthy and best years yet!! This is not a program, it is a way of being, so my advice is be patient, stay the course, and be prepared to look back in a year and have your mind blown. This is so much more than just weight loss!--
