In episode 176, Chris and Jill speak with Laurie Lewis, an Intermittent Fasting and Wellness Coach. With intermittent fasting as the foundation, Laurie teaches how to break free from the punishment-diet paradigm we live in. She shows how to tune into our body’s inner compass, have a daily eating window, and experience improvements in every aspect of our lives.
Laurie has Health Coach Certification from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition. Her company is called Fast Forward Intermittent Fasting and she offers customized coaching services.
We discuss:
- Why dieting doesn't work
- What the health benefits of intermittent fasting are

- Clean eating and how that is important
- Why flavored teas or flavored waters do not count toward fasting hours
- How to use intermittent fasting as a way to maintain a weight loss
