Season 1

Episode 297: Melissa Janish


In this episode of Intermittent Fasting Stories, Gin talks to Melissa Janish from Monument, CO.

Are you ready to take your intermittent fasting lifestyle to the next level? There’s nothing better than community to help with that.  In the Delay, Don’t Deny community we all embrace the clean fast, and there’s just the right support for you as you live your intermittent fasting lifestyle.

You can connect directly with Gin in the Ask Gin group, and she will answer all of your questions personally.  If you’re new to intermittent fasting or recommitting to the IF lifestyle, join the 28-Day FAST Start group.  After your fast start, join us for support in The 1st Year group.  Need tips for long term maintenance? We have a place for that!  There are many more useful spaces beyond these, and you can interact in as many as you like.

Visit ginstephens.com/community to join us. An annual membership costs just over a dollar a week when you do the math.  If you aren’t ready to fully commit for a year, join for a month and you can cancel at any time. If you know you’ll want to stay forever, we also have a lifetime membership option available.

IF is free. You don’t need to join our community to fast. But if you’re looking for support from a community of like-minded IFers, we are here for you at  ginstephens.com/community.

Melissa works in special education. Beginning at sixteen, Melissa tried a wide variety of diets. She would lose weight, then gain it back, plus more. She reached her highest weight after having her four children.

In the Summer of 2019, Melissa discovered IF through a friend. Through the challenges of Covid and job stress, Melissa has been living the IF lifestyle. She has more weight to lose, but her relationship with food has been healed. Melissa no longer uses food for comfort.

Melissa’s advice: “Start simple. Don’t focus on weight loss at first, but instead focus on a healthy lifestyle. The weight loss will come.”
