Episode 155 Heather Dramnitzke A lightbulb moment leading to a very inspiring intermittent fasting journey. A recap of the first year doing IF.

Heather is a 43-year-old mom of 2 and has been married to her husband, Branden, for 10 years.  She is a Kindergarten teacher from Southwestern Ontario, Canada. At the end of October 2021, a friend sent her a video of Graeme in a podcast interview.  She listened to it and had a “lightbulb” moment and immediately ordered Graeme Curries book, “The Fasting Highway”.  After reading Graeme’s story in less than a day, she immediately started clean fasting on Monday, November 1st, 2021.  It was the perfect day to start!  She started OMAD with clean fasting, and the clean fast made all of the difference in the world. Something just clicked for her, and she has clean-fasted every single day for over a year now. In the past, Heather had a lot of success with a Ketogenic diet, but the stressors of teaching online during a pandemic took their toll.  She regained some of the weight she had lost with Keto and was feeling a sense of desperation about her weight.  IF gave her the freedom to eat a wider variety of healthy foods and eliminated the guilt that came along with eating out or enjoying “treats'' once in a while.  She has shifted towards more of a low carb/paleo eating style and includes things in her window that she had previously thought were off limits for the rest of her life because they weren’t considered “Keto.”  She limits sugar, bread, pasta, etc., and focuses on real, whole foods.  She is still working towards her ultimate weight goal, and realizes that this is her lifestyle now, so it will take as long as it takes, and that’s ok!  She can’t imagine NOT clean fasting every day for the rest of her L*IF*E!
