Episode 251 John Beaver a remarkable transformation and living a sustainable Intermittent Fasting Lifestyle

John Beaver, now 55 years old, came to Intermittent Fasting in August of 2020 – partly searching for a solution to his increasingly troublesome migraines and partly looking for some change to a lifelong struggle with weight and obesity.   The results were beyond expectations on both fronts!  The migraines have faded to infrequent occurrences, and his weight began to drop off almost immediately, dropping from a beginning weight of 293 pounds to less than 180 by April of 2022.  As life went on, and John moved forward into more of a maintenance mode, his weight settled back up just a bit in sync with his lifestyle.   By 2023, he maintained in the 195-200 pound range consistently while typically working with a 5-7 hour eating window, guided by a sense of flexibility around living life – tempered with the knowledge that he had changed his life with this new way of coexisting with food. He first appeared on The Fasting Highway podcast in Episode 54 during his weight loss phase in March of 2021, and later for a touchpoint in July of 2023 on Episode 183. John is the proud father of two sons.  His older son has also been an intermittent fasting success story – having lost over 100 pounds by changing this lifestyle since 2020.  John’s younger son lived with severe cerebral palsy and has been a massive part of the “why” for all the changes in his life.
