Mistakes are proof you’re trying.
I just want to make it clear that the fact that you’re taking action improving your health, transforming your body, and sticking with it is better than most.
Mistakes are going to happen.
We all have made mistakes in our life and in what we eat. I’m certainly no exception to making these mistakes.
I’ve made mistakes with my journey into intermittent fasting and all things health, and I’ve coached thousands of people, so I’ve seen or heard just about every mistake known to man.
With the recent launch of my program, The 3-Week Intermittent Fasting Diet, I decided to write a series of articles on Intermittent Fasting to not only promote the program, but to educate you on all things fasting.
The good, the bad, and the ugly, because the majority of my readers and customers are women and it’s very important you do your due diligence before jumping into Intermittent Fasting.
In this article, I’m going to discuss 12 intermittent fasting mistakes to avoid on your journey.
1. Too Much Dairy
Heavy cream, hard cheeses, butter, and cream cheese is delicious and considered a staple in the Keto diet. The problem is not everyone can tolerate dairy, and this can lead to weight stalls.
Half of the people I’ve helped over the years have some intolerance to dairy. This intolerance can lead to inflammation in the body. Inflammation drives up cortisol which hurts weight loss and overall health.
I also think most people don’t even know they have a dairy problem. They are blaming their weight loss plateaus on other things in their diet or life.
I recommend going dairy free for 30 days. Then slowly add back in some dairy to see how you feel and how it affects you on the scale. You might be surprised by what you find.
2. Quitting Too Soon
Intermittent fasting isn’t easy because, duh, you’re either going all day on fewer calories than usual or going longer than usual without any food at all. No matter what flavor of fasting you choose, the eating style requires a lot of discipline — especially when you feel hungry (or hangry, as my wife calls it).
Feelings of exhaustion and irritability you notice initially should go away after the first week or so. If they don’t, it’s possible the method of fasting you’ve chosen doesn’t quite suit your lifestyle and you may need to reconsider your approach.
Good thing, I’ve put together the easiest way to fast, metabolic style with delicious healthy simple, easy to make meals
3. Being Afraid of Fat
We all have been lied to that fat is bad, and it’s going to kill us. Ancel Keys started this dogma decades ago, and the low-fat mantra has prevailed ever since.
Doctors and researchers tell us if we keep ….
