Beyond Fasting

“It really allowed me to see how I'd eat out of boredom with absolutely no hunger involved”

I had heard of IF for quite a while but never really explored what that was. All I knew was that people I knew we're doing it for days and that didn't sound appealing. 
When Mindvalley came up with this challenge, and I knew and respected that forum, I decided to join the group not knowing what to expect.
Then came Ronan!!! Questions answered, motivation & knowledge abound...and enthusiasm that is contagious! 
The 16:8 was easy for me to do but sticking with this concept started showing me my mindless desire to eat at times that were opposed to my goals. It really allowed me to see how I'd eat out of boredom with absolutely no hunger involved.
Being part of such an interactive, kind, and spiritual group has been totally enjoyable. 
I'm not one to sit and watch most videos. But with Ronan I looked forward to learning more and just witnessing such a wonderful personality filled with information and never being judgmental!
My goal has been to lose weight, but this became secondary.
 I started to feel better, sleep better, have less gastric issues that have plagued me for over a year, and just became more mindful of what I was doing. I only lost a few pounds in 28 days, but again, for the first time, that was secondary to how I felt. 
I also noticed slight changes in my body, regardless of the minimal weight loss! 
I'm slowly refining what I eat in my window, and feel I'm more in control, based on how I feel!
I've totally enjoyed being a part of this group with such supportive people! I'm so glad the connection is continuing and I look forward to continued good health, progress, and being of support to others!
Thank YOU Ronan and Mindvalley!!!!
