Gale is the author of The Trudie Fine Mystery Series and a retired teacher. She first learned about intermittent fasting when she heard Gin speak at a publishing summit. Gale bought a copy of Fast Feast Repeat immediately and embarked on a thoughtful process to understand and adopt fasting.
Gale’s story highlights how childhood and teenage experiences shaped her relationship with food and body image, leading her to experiment with various diets before finding a sustainable routine with a daily eating window.
Throughout her five-year journey, Gale has experienced significant health improvements, including better thyroid health, no more skin tags, and improved dental checkups. Gale also offers insights into living a flexible lifestyle while enjoying social occasions and maintaining balance.
For those new to intermittent fasting, Gale advises easing into the practice, trusting your body, and focusing on finding a lifestyle fit. She encourages beginners to listen to their bodies, celebrate non-scale victories, and enjoy the journey without striving for perfection. Her story is a testament to patience, self-discovery, and the profound health benefits of intermittent fasting.
