🚨 Thinking about trying intermittent fasting?
Before you jump in, here’s what needs to happen first if you want results (and not hormone chaos ⏰):
1️⃣ Balanced nutrition first – Get consistent at eating enough calories and especially enough protein. Fasting is NOT about under-eating.
2️⃣ Stable blood sugar meals – Build the habit of eating whole foods, lean protein, veggies, and smart carbs at regular times. If you’re still snacking on junk, fasting won’t fix it.
3️⃣ Monitor your blood sugar – If your glucose (or energy) is spiking or crashing, or cortisol is through the roof, you’re fasting too long and stressing your metabolism.
4️⃣ Hormone readiness – Women over 40 need to support thyroid, adrenal, and s*x hormones before adding fasting stress. Otherwise, you risk fatigue, cravings, and stalled progress.
5️⃣ Get rid of diet mindset! Fasting expecting fast or extreme results will backfire!
✅ Bottom line: Intermittent fasting works best when your nutrition, blood sugar, and hormones are already dialed in. Start with balance, then fine-tune with fasting.
