She experienced childhood incidents that shaped her body image and self-esteem, including beginning her first diet at the age of 11. In college, she learned to accept her body and broke the cycle of yo-yo dieting.Jen discovered intermittent fasting through brief mention of it in a book by Dr. Will Cole. Initially skeptical, she found her way to intermittent fasting in August of 2023. Jen's initial weight was 224 pounds, and she is now the lowest weight of her adult life, at around 160. She is really enjoying living her goal lifestyle, and will let her body settle wherever it’s happy.Her eating window is typically from 2 PM to 7 PM. Jen's relationship with food has evolved, focusing on emotional and mental well-being.

I do commend Ms Stephen’s for her hard work in inspiring and supporting intermittent fasting, which has worked well for thousands now and for me too so far. However in her material there is an undertone of competition with other intermittent fasting experts, communities and coaching programs which is distracting. Also there is an attitude that her way is the only way to intermittent fast, when it seems that flexibility is key to adhering to fasting and to tailoring fasting to differing needs, lifestyles, and people’s biologies. Other programs, like The Fasting Method have much more scientific backing (studies referenced in The Obesity Code by Dr Jason Fung) and use behavioral strategies to help inspire adherence. Also Gin almost always takes over her interviews, gushing about her own experience, detracting from the interviewee’s experience. Sorry but it can be hard to listen to at times. But I do usually take away at least one or two tips from each story, so I grit my teeth and listen.

Inspiring stories but unscientific and annoying
