I'm a 67 Italian lady and eat the Mediterranean diet. I live in a city where I walk all over the place, never use a lift and use a bicycle as my transport. Unfortunately I've recently had two losses in 9 months which brought for me a lot of sadness and I stopped caring for myself. I've put on a few kilogrammes and now finding it difficult to lose them again. You have inspired me. You've given me the kick start and today I'm starting intermittent fasting. Thank you.
Thank you Soo much! You are a shining light and helping so many women. I'm a 69 year old woman in good health, but have some aches and pains - osteoporosis and osteo arthritis I'm trying to manage. I need to try the fasting not eating after a certain time. I'll keep watching your videos!👍😊
I've been doing this for 2 months and I lost 14 pounds. I'm shocked. Spiritually I gave my life to Christ but emotional trauma caught me off guard. I gained weight...way too much. Then menopause got me! But intermittent fasting has truly helped. I'm happy to find your page. You are awesome and admirable. God bless you.

Intermittent fasting changed my life too I am 68, no longer have pre-diabetes, high cholesterol or any other medical issues I start eating around 11am breakfast Around 4pm lunch/dinner Around 6pm organic apple & few organic prunes I walk 4-6km every day, swim & do stretches (yoga) My GP was so surprised, said to continue doing everything the way I am doing it, because it's obviously working ❤
Go You 🙏❤️ I am 63 and aiming for where you are although not diagnosed with the medical issues you have had I am significantly overweight so know I need to change that Yesterday! 😘😘Keep going Well Done 🙏❤️
I am a 67 Mexican lady and I am overweight; I was taking care of my husband for some years (he passed last year)but i did not have life. I live in Mexico and I have been doing nothing for me and I don’t feel well. I watched recently a video of you and I thought if she did it I can do it !thank you so much to share your journey ❤

I came across your videos in March 2023 when I had just turned 57 and have been following you since. You, my dear, have no idea how much you have inspired me. Today, I feel the most healthiest I have ever been. Thank you for sharing your journey, your experience and your knowledge. Congratulations on your interview on TV and the launch of your book. Well done, you! You deserve everything good that comes your way. You are going to change lives!
I'm 36 and love your channel!!! You're such a breath of fresh air! With a 16 year old daughter and 2 young sons (age 3 and 1) i want to PRO AGE... not anti age! Aging is so beautiful when done gracefully and you have embodied that! You're so lovely! Thanks for being a light and someone to look up to ❤
Just found you and know that you're the inspiration I've been solely looking for. I'm late 60's and diabetic and NEED to change my life! I've stagnated! And I'm committing all those terrible sins...eating late, not sleeping until early hours, then not being able to wake up until late 😢 missing the day/days, blood sugar up and down, back pain, leg pain, indigestion, arthritis, raised BP you name it...I've got it! I suffer from mild depression and have a clutter problem because I just can't get self-motivated....so I need you and your book! ❤
I am SO HAPPY I have come across your videos on TH-cam! You are my new hero and inspiration! I’ve gained at least 60 lbs since my son passed in 2017 and have become so inactive and depressed BUT I hate who I see in the mirror. So, let the new journey begin! Thank you 🙏🏻 so much for putting your story/videos out there! I’m so grateful.
Sorry for your loss Heidi. Be gentle with yourself and it’s perhaps worth knowing that sometimes with grief we can gain weight as a form of protection and comfort during these hard moments. Many good wishes
IF completely freed me from diet culture and obsession. I never step on a scale. I eat what I want -- and I want less junk, more real food. It was revolutionary. Never going back. I read Fast, Feast, Repeat. Changed everything.
That book changed my life! I’ve lost weight many times and always gained it back plus more. I could never maintain weight loss but now I have for about a year! I’m going to do this the rest of my life, I’m almost 69. I also watch intermittent fasting stories with Gin Stephen’s for inspiration.
I just found your channel, and I am totally inspired. At the age of 67, I went back to full time teaching because that is where I found my joy. However, at age 69, I do find that my energy is waning, and it is hard to keep that "school" schedule. I am also gaining weight, and I feel miserable. I am going to start jumping rope and stop eating at night. Your bathing suit video is my inspiration!
Wow God bless you! I’m a retired teacher and keeping weight off after my forties was a challenge. There’s always so much food at school… someone brings in donuts, there’s a baby or wedding shower, it’s teachers appreciation day! LoL
So wonderful. I am 45 and my mom is 70. I will be sharing your videos with her. What a beautiful thing your son said to you. ‘You can’t find her because you are her’ ❤
Thank you so much for your inspiration! I came across your profile about two and a half months ago and have been doing interval fasting for two months now - I've lost five kilos since then and feel fresher, lighter, more positive and more beautiful! Greetings from Austria ☀️ Silvia (47)
Hi Gail, I am from America in Arizona. I recently joined a group called TOPS (take off pounds sensibly) I have been looking for the best way for me to lose weight. I love intermittent fasting. I have pretty much lost my addiction to food but and still figuring out the best way to integrate intermittent fasting into my lifestyle. I also have been working out at a gym and working up to 7 days a week but I have SO much more energy, strength and vitality. I found you and have been following you for about 2 - 3 weeks now. I'm so grateful to have found you! I am 73 but I am vibrant and I LOVE my life! Just working on losing the extra pounds and I am on my way! Thank you for being you!
Your beauty transcend your age, skin texture, etc. because it comes from your inside. Thanks for sharing your experiences. I’m 68 yrs old and enjoy and learn from all your videos. God bless you.❤
I am a 53 year old menopausal women who developed chronic fatigue syndrome at the age of 20. I was told there is no cure, and since 20 I have lived the life of a 90 year old women. After having been bed ridden for 3 years, I came across TH-cam videos of Chronic fatigue syndrome sufferers getting better, and after a lot of research, started on my own journey toward youthfulness. It is amazing how we can train our brains to change, even after 22 years. I am inspired by women like you to share my journey to wellness here for free to any and all women who need a pathway to follow. Thank you so so much for your videos, and your life devoted to wellness, and helping others!!!
Curious…Did you have a spiritual awakening? I’m 57. Been in a dark night of the soul for the past few years. Trying to find my way back to the light has been hell. Your lovely energy and transformation is inspiring and look forward to reading your book. 💕
Give your heart to Jesus dear friend. Trust in Him and He will strengthen you and bring you through difficult times. His peace is different to that which is in everydalife. 🙏🌷 21/04/24 @ 15:40 UK
Thank you Gail ! You are amazing ! I am a 55 years young Canadian and I have started my transformation (55 is the transformation angel number) in January 2024. So far, lost 20 pounds using intermittent fasting and was already plant based (too much wine and eating my emotions ). When I found your channel , I was soooo happy ! There are a couple of women on TH-cam that could be interesting ; Chantal Di Donato (she is plant based too and moved to northern Portugal in 2019 ….small world). A super book to support intermittent fasting is Fast.Feast.Repeat !
I’m 55 and so ready to make the change. I love getting older but like yourself I have been burying emotions and my self esteem with food and just drifting in the abyss. It’s great to find like minded women and inspirational women here. Count me in for this transformation!!
@@patriciaboivin66 bonjour Patricia, choisis l’horaire qui te convient le mieux en fonction de tes activités. Beaucoup de gens saute le déjeuner et le dîner la semaine du moins car c’est plus fluide dans l’horaire . Mais c’est à toi de décider. Je jeûne tous les jours - sauf quand j’ai une activité importante comme un brunch en famille)- de 19:00 ou 20:00 jusqu’au lendemain 14:00 ou 15:00. Je casse mon jeûne avec un repas style déjeuner et je soupe avec ma famille à 18:00 ou 19:00. Voilà ! Je te conseille vraiment le livre Fast.Feast.Repeat de Gin Stephens . Elle démystifie beaucoup de choses …. Une question fondamentale : pourquoi tu jeûnes ? Ça deviendra ton levier !
Thank you, this is needed so much. 2 breast cancer diagnoses, a mastectomy, chemo, radiotherapy, empty nest syndrome, friends moving and passing away and retirement had my mind and body at a standstill. I am slowly changing my life, starting with getting up very early to feed my beloved feral cats, walk my dog and start my day with gratitude, green tea and now exercise. I need to eat more healthily and get more exercise, and I now finally have the time to take care of myself.
Thank you for sharing your journey it’s very inspiring, I’m with for the long haul . I’m eat so much after my dinner I’m full but still carry on eating till 10.00 ( even though it’s only fruit ) I needed someone to tell me what I already knew but ignored , I needed someone to voice how awful it makes you feel trying to get to sleep fighting all that food in tummy so bless you . I can do it !! No eating after my dinner . I’ll let you know how I get on . I’m 65 and a vegetarian so your food menu is also an interest to me . Thank you 😊
Ive just turned 30, but loving have discovered your channel as you are an inspiration for bettering your soul and lifestyle no matter what age in my opinion. Thank you for such lovely videos. ❤
Your transformation is so amazing. You are such an inspiration!! I committed to my Self Care, because i took care of everyone else. 2024 is all about me!!
I began a similar journey myself 2 years ago and lost 80 pounds using intermittent fasting and I've been improving other areas of my life largely alone and unguided as there hasn't been other role models to learn from in this area. So glad to have found you and your channel. Just preordered your book as I'm still working on myself in all areas and could still use some direction. Can't wait to get the book. Sept can't get here quick enough!
I'm 57 and have lost and kept off 15lb for 4 years combining a plant-based diet with IF (16/8.) It might not sound like a lot of weight to lose but, post menopause, nothing else worked and, although I was never technically overweight, my weight was creeping up towards the outer range of my healthy BMI. IF and plant-based eating brought it right back to where it should be and, crucially, it's stayed there and brought all my health numbers (BP and so on) into the normal to optimal range. I'm a convert for life! Thank you for being such an inspiration.
This is just so inspiring. I've tried Intermittent fasting before but i always would do it from 10pm to 2pm the next days, as i could never go to bed hungry. I want to try this now. ❤ I also want to get your book!! I'm 59 and really struggling.
So glad I have found your channel. Looking forward to following you while I try to transform myself at 66! I have already lost 8 pounds over the last 6 weeks by cutting out snacking between meals (particularly chocolate which was my addiction), and will try cutting down to two nutritious meals a day (from three) ❤❤
Thank you so much, I can feel your positive vibes.I am 62 years old and i was so depressed and now i am working on it.Hope to watch your coming videos soon.
I'm 54 just starting my midlife journey to wellness. When you described your previous self I can relate. I'm beginning better eating and intermittent fasting and herbal teas. I really want to lose at least 50 lbs and need to do more self care exercise which I just started. I'll be a year into the change in about 3 weeks and this last month has been such an anxious one. Things need to change.
I absolutely love this channel! It's so good to see other people here who just accept ageing as a natural part of their life. So beautiful thank you 💘 Intermittent fasting saved my menopausal arse (sorry for the language but that how bad it was) so big shout out to Mindy Pelz
I truly know that what you are saying is true. For me, it's just getting out of bad habits and bringing in this new way of life. Your spark is testament to it all. ❤
Just ran across your video, wow just what I needed! Have my last 7 pounds to goal, struggling....I need to move more & get back into intermittent fasting, @ 75 I love my longer silver hair! You look awesome!!❤
Stumbled across your video and have been binge watching more of your videos. I find you so inspiring! I am eating more plant based than ever nowadays as I’ll be 55 this November! Thank you for sharing your videos and your knowledge!
Your face has been popping up all over my TH-cam recommendations and I was drawn to your bubbly personality and beautiful silver hair, so tonight I clicked on this video and within minites I have subscribed to hear more as a fellow silver sister since the first lockdown and loving it. 😊
There is so much I would like to say to you, your channel popped up just when I needed it. My inner guidance was leading me in the right direction however because I gained 25 lbs in the last year and I wanted to lose it as fast as possible I started following a very strict Intermittent fasting which has been stressing me out. Listening to the information you share here proves I was on the right track originally. Thank you so much!! Im learning how my body works again, now that I am 54 which is so different than before. Thanks for all that you shared. 😊
I’ve ordered your book Gail & cannot wait to dive into it ! I just wish Sept 26th wasn’t so far off but I won’t wish the best months of the year away worrying about that now that I know you will be regularly posting on here. I am 61 this May & want to look & feel better not younger just the best that I can be into my proper “pre” old age age ! At the moment I have some nasty aches & pains that have set in so I’m taking your advice & re-starting my IF way of eating which I’ve done before with great success & great effects . I think I slowly stopped eating that way when I hit my target weight & felt that I had to accomplish so much to just stay in maintenance mode with no real gains ? I should’ve realised that the gains I achieved were being taken for granted & I could have my cake & eat it which of course is a journey to disaster without IF !! ….and who doesn’t love cake ?!! So I’m so pleased I’ve stumbled upon you because I’d love to get back on the wagon & start living my best life again. To be able to do anything, to not feel inflamed joints hurting & have a higher percentage of my bulging wardrobe available for me to wear because it fits me again which It certainly doesn’t at the moment ! Thank you Gail 👍
Ive just found your channel, and been doing I F (8-14) inbthe past and worked for me but then I stopped (big life changes, lost the focus). Now I know, that finiding you again is my wake-up call to start again for a healthier me! Im 40 and i dont wanna gain more weight! Already carry some extra😬. So its never too late, as long as you start and not only just planning in your head! You were right about the spark in your eyes in the old video compared it to this one! You are glowing, inside and out! Stay blessed! And thank you for your mission for us! 🫂🌷👌
What a transformation! Love your personality! Thank you for great advice. It is true, it's not about one big change but a lot of single small steps. And staying consistent❤
Thanks for your Light! Just found you yesterday and I'm following you❤ I've been using IF for a few years but consistency has been my biggest issue. So THANK YOU for inspiring me to get on the train and stay there! I'm 57 and ready to take the leap! Be blessed!!! 💞Krissy from Michigan
You are an inspiration! I am so happy I have found your channel. Just having an example of the person who were able to turn their life around is incredibly important. Double bonus is that you are vegan. So many ideas! I am trying to go vegan for ethical reasons reasons, and your videos will definitely help me with that. Also, I have preordered your book! It is going to come out few days before my birthday, and will be a nice birthday present from me to myself 😊 Looking forward to reading it! Thank you again!
I've followed Nick's channel for years now and really value his insight and perspective he offers us. Most of us are going through life so fast that we don't stop to get the kind of perspective he is able to offer. One of the most truely kind souls I have ever witnessed. So elated that you mentioned him!
Congratulations on your book and your channel. I love watching your clips on fitness, food, fashion, and fun. You definitely have your sparkle back. Props to your son for his words of wisdom.
Oh my goodness i I absolutely LOVE Venerable Nick and have met him twice along with Venerable Michael. What an inspiration they are. With the millions of videos on TH-cam I knew something special pulled me into yours. Now I know what it was. I am 70 and let myself go also. You are so right, the road to self care starts in the mind. I do have The Buddhist Cleanse and meditation book and journal. Now you also have inspired me to become a healthier soul mentally, physically and spiritually. Thank you Sister for sharing and thank you brothers Nick and Michael for always being within me. Blessings.
I’ve followed Nick for a few years now and have thought about trying two meals a day after watching him talk about it but haven’t yet. I came across you last week and am catching up on all your videos and IG posts. Will be buying the book too 😉
Thank you for this advice from your personal experience... it accords with what I have tried with Keto eating and intermittenet eating recommended by my GP. You are inspirational. Buddhism is also about manifesting your future self.
You’re looking great, I feel fat and sluggish so I need to give this intermittent fasting a try. I’m 58, 5 ft 2 and 10stone 4 so I’ve jumped into the overweight category of the bmi, I have just come back from a weeks holiday (eating and drinking fest ) in Tenerife, no excuses now, thanks for your motivation, best wishes, Lisa
I've been watching your posts for some while not entirely sure what to make of them but this video has won me over! I am turning 60 next month and definitely feel out of kilter. I have always struggled with my weight and with the long term stress of caring for elderly parents have become very anxious. I am also coming to terms with being an empty nester. I do eat very healthily but my exercise has dropped away to the bare minimum. Now is definitely a good time for me to tackle these issues. I will be tuning in regularly to hear more of your story and helpful tips.
Love your Channel Gail. You are inspiring many women to live a healthy and happy life I too discovered Intermittent fasting a year ago. Eat 2 meals a day, the odd piece of pizza, icecream. Makes you feel energised for sure. I am 68. Important to rid the body of inflammation. 😊
I am very grateful for coming across your You Tube short videos and your channel. You are a fabulous breath of fresh air. I'm so inspired by everything you have done so far. Thank you!
I paused the video at 2 minutes in order to buy your book. Looking forward to September, already! 😁 I have followed you for a while but this morning I knew that today was day 1 of my new pathway. I have practised most of the things you have mentioned, but they have definitely‘slipped’ and this has caused a rapid decline in the health of my body and mind. I look forward to beginning again, ith you as my guide. Totally inspired! ❤
You're an inspiration! I"m a 47 yr old perimenopausal woman . Like you, I have always enjoyed hiking and being outdoors, plus have a regular yoga and meditation practice. Not sure if it's hormonal but I feel like I have hit a wall, energy zapped, losing my motivation for exercise and things in general. Sleep is becoming worse and I just don't feel like myself. Anyways, I have found your videos to be really inspiring and will get myself a copy of your book. Your transformation is beautiful! I can feel your energy 🙏
It’s funny how you ended with positively changing life. The pandemic Medicaid is over here in the US so I got disqualified from that free healthcare. Now my insurance on the platinum level is over $1200/month. Instead of my 1st reaction- I have to work more, get a side job! I decided to sell my excess stuff and sell art. I’m in a botanical drawing class to jump start the art. It’s a long journey but it needs to be done because someday the house must be cleared and sold. I’m making my way to manifesting that art studio surrounded by a small garden. I was a professional stone carver but didn’t have the confidence to carry on. The spiritual practice of yoga also really helped me grow up and shed resentments. Love your shine 🫶🏼
I’m 67. I’ve been called mutton dressed as lamb more than once. I’ve watched your videos and the one where you say “I’m 56, I don’t care if you think I’m older, died, dug up and steamrolled” or words to that effect. I loved it. Your hair looks gorgeous, you are classy and look amazing. 😊
I turned 55 last month. I am so glad you popped into my feed. You sound like one of my daughter’s friend’s mum whom I love so I feel like we are already friends! I love your fasting window but I like to exercise in the mornings without eating anything. So my window has to be different. This video is inspiring me to really cut that morning coffee with cream to get the benefits of a real fast through the morning! Can’t wait to see some more. Thanks for doing this!!!!
I recently found you on TH-cam. Loving all your content so far. My only complaint is I wish I could watch in full screen. Thank You for your inspiration and sharing your journey with us!
Wow! What a wonderful positive transformational inspiration video for such a disciplined practice {intermittent fasting} Thank you for providing many women around the world the courage for that first step, to goal, is achievable.
I’m caring for my 94 year old father-in-law … it’s going on two years now… my life feels like it’s standing still. So much meal planning and prep … and sitting. I’ve got to summon up the discipline to do this!
My mantra "the book is coming...the book is coming" so grateful for this post... intermittent fasting is something i want to look into... great beginning...can you recommend a cookbook....i have watched all you videos from your start and gleaned what i can... Thank you once again....have a great day❤
I just turned 43 today and I just came across your videos this past week...You are very inspiring...not many with your attitude and encouragement, Thank you!!
I love your inspirational videos. Keep the coming. Iam a 60 something who like you had has gained a few extra lbs I love your positivity and how you've been manifesting your life . Amazing thank you. Xx❤
Love your energy!! You are real. Thanks for sharing your thoughts, your habits and your eagerness to give out the best of you❤. Kisses from Zaragoza (Spain)....
I’m 55 and have been through a lot mentally and physically. You’re really inspiring me! One thing I can’t do is caffeine. Do you think it’s a big part of what has helped you? I know it’s great for weight loss.

That book changed my life! I’ve lost weight many times and always gained it back plus more. I could never maintain weight loss but now I have for about a year! I’m going to do this the rest of my life, I’m almost 69. I also watch intermittent fasting stories with Gin Stephen’s for inspiration.
Just ordered!!
I just found your channel, and I am totally inspired. At the age of 67, I went back to full time teaching because that is where I found my joy. However, at age 69, I do find that my energy is waning, and it is hard to keep that "school" schedule. I am also gaining weight, and I feel miserable. I am going to start jumping rope and stop eating at night. Your bathing suit video is my inspiration!
Wow God bless you! I’m a retired teacher and keeping weight off after my forties was a challenge. There’s always so much food at school… someone brings in donuts, there’s a baby or wedding shower, it’s teachers appreciation day! LoL
So wonderful. I am 45 and my mom is 70. I will be sharing your videos with her.
What a beautiful thing your son said to you.
‘You can’t find her because you are her’ ❤
I just ordered your book! I’m 60! This is my year to make changes!
Me too. 60. How did that happen?!
I'm in South Africa...am almost 60. Started IF four weeks ago. Apart from losing weight, I feel great!
Let’s do this! BAM!🎉🎉🎉
I can’t wait!! Starting tomorrow
Thank you so much for your inspiration! I came across your profile about two and a half months ago and have been doing interval fasting for two months now - I've lost five kilos since then and feel fresher, lighter, more positive and more beautiful! Greetings from Austria ☀️ Silvia (47)
Amazing!!! I’m so happy for you. Thank you for commenting and sharing your experience. 🤗
I think your bubbly happy attitude helps too. You’ve got this youthful look and feel especially with that twinkle in your eyes.
Hi Gail, I am from America in Arizona. I recently joined a group called TOPS (take off pounds sensibly) I have been looking for the best way for me to lose weight. I love intermittent fasting. I have pretty much lost my addiction to food but and still figuring out the best way to integrate intermittent fasting into my lifestyle. I also have been working out at a gym and working up to 7 days a week but I have SO much more energy, strength and vitality. I found you and have been following you for about 2 - 3 weeks now. I'm so grateful to have found you! I am 73 but I am vibrant and I LOVE my life! Just working on losing the extra pounds and I am on my way! Thank you for being you!
This is exactly how I have been eating for what’s and people think I am crazy. I have never felt better!!!❤
I'm 63 and also an Intermittent Faster. I Love your channel, thank you!
Your beauty transcend your age, skin texture, etc. because it comes from your inside. Thanks for sharing your experiences. I’m 68 yrs old and enjoy and learn from all your videos. God bless you.❤
Great video!! Love your message!! We don’t have to get old and diseased. We can live our best life to the very end!! Thank you 🙏🏼🙌🏽💃
Dream on, I have never seen any examples of this. This lady could go tits up at any time, as could we all, thanks.
I am a 53 year old menopausal women who developed chronic fatigue syndrome at the age of 20. I was told there is no cure, and since 20 I have lived the life of a 90 year old women. After having been bed ridden for 3 years, I came across TH-cam videos of Chronic fatigue syndrome sufferers getting better, and after a lot of research, started on my own journey toward youthfulness. It is amazing how we can train our brains to change, even after 22 years. I am inspired by women like you to share my journey to wellness here for free to any and all women who need a pathway to follow. Thank you so so much for your videos, and your life devoted to wellness, and helping others!!!
Curious…Did you have a spiritual awakening? I’m 57. Been in a dark night of the soul for the past few years. Trying to find my way back to the light has been hell. Your lovely energy and transformation is inspiring and look forward to reading your book. 💕
Sending love to you! May your healing, self love and empowerment be glorious and blessed.❤❤❤
Dark and light are the same and exactly where you need to be.
Give your heart to Jesus dear friend. Trust in Him and He will strengthen you and bring you through difficult times. His peace is different to that which is in everydalife. 🙏🌷 21/04/24 @ 15:40 UK
I’m only 37, but I love watching your videos! You inspire me. Keep up the great work, beautiful!
Thank you.
Thank you Gail ! You are amazing ! I am a 55 years young Canadian and I have started my transformation (55 is the transformation angel number) in January 2024. So far, lost 20 pounds using intermittent fasting and was already plant based (too much wine and eating my emotions ). When I found your channel , I was soooo happy ! There are a couple of women on TH-cam that could be interesting ; Chantal Di Donato (she is plant based too and moved to northern Portugal in 2019 ….small world). A super book to support intermittent fasting is Fast.Feast.Repeat !
Thank you. I will check them out.
I’m 55 and so ready to make the change. I love getting older but like yourself I have been burying emotions and my self esteem with food and just drifting in the abyss.
It’s great to find like minded women and inspirational women here.
Count me in for this transformation!!
bonjour qu elles sont tes heures de repas? Je ne sais pas par où commencer, merci
@@patriciaboivin66 bonjour Patricia, choisis l’horaire qui te convient le mieux en fonction de tes activités. Beaucoup de gens saute le déjeuner et le dîner la semaine du moins car c’est plus fluide dans l’horaire . Mais c’est à toi de décider. Je jeûne tous les jours - sauf quand j’ai une activité importante comme un brunch en famille)- de 19:00 ou 20:00 jusqu’au lendemain 14:00 ou 15:00. Je casse mon jeûne avec un repas style déjeuner et je soupe avec ma famille à 18:00 ou 19:00. Voilà ! Je te conseille vraiment le livre Fast.Feast.Repeat de Gin Stephens . Elle démystifie beaucoup de choses …. Une question fondamentale : pourquoi tu jeûnes ? Ça deviendra ton levier !
"55 years young"..... love this!!
I'm no longer "67 years old", from now on I'm "67 years young". Thank you!! 😊
Thank you, this is needed so much. 2 breast cancer diagnoses, a mastectomy, chemo, radiotherapy, empty nest syndrome, friends moving and passing away and retirement had my mind and body at a standstill. I am slowly changing my life, starting with getting up very early to feed my beloved feral cats, walk my dog and start my day with gratitude, green tea and now exercise. I need to eat more healthily and get more exercise, and I now finally have the time to take care of myself.
Thank you for sharing your journey it’s very inspiring, I’m with for the long haul . I’m eat so much after my dinner I’m full but still carry on eating till 10.00 ( even though it’s only fruit ) I needed someone to tell me what I already knew but ignored , I needed someone to voice how awful it makes you feel trying to get to sleep fighting all that food in tummy so bless you . I can do it !! No eating after my dinner . I’ll let you know how I get on . I’m 65 and a vegetarian so your food menu is also an interest to me . Thank you 😊
Ive just turned 30, but loving have discovered your channel as you are an inspiration for bettering your soul and lifestyle no matter what age in my opinion. Thank you for such lovely videos. ❤
Wow, thank you!
Your transformation is so amazing. You are such an inspiration!! I committed to my Self Care, because i took care of everyone else. 2024 is all about me!!
I began a similar journey myself 2 years ago and lost 80 pounds using intermittent fasting and I've been improving other areas of my life largely alone and unguided as there hasn't been other role models to learn from in this area. So glad to have found you and your channel. Just preordered your book as I'm still working on myself in all areas and could still use some direction. Can't wait to get the book. Sept can't get here quick enough!
I'm 57 and have lost and kept off 15lb for 4 years combining a plant-based diet with IF (16/8.) It might not sound like a lot of weight to lose but, post menopause, nothing else worked and, although I was never technically overweight, my weight was creeping up towards the outer range of my healthy BMI. IF and plant-based eating brought it right back to where it should be and, crucially, it's stayed there and brought all my health numbers (BP and so on) into the normal to optimal range. I'm a convert for life! Thank you for being such an inspiration.
This is just so inspiring. I've tried Intermittent fasting before but i always would do it from 10pm to 2pm the next days, as i could never go to bed hungry. I want to try this now. ❤ I also want to get your book!! I'm 59 and really struggling.
This is wonderful thank you. I'm 43 now and feeling my body lose strength. I will keep watching ❤
So glad I have found your channel. Looking forward to following you while I try to transform myself at 66! I have already lost 8 pounds over the last 6 weeks by cutting out snacking between meals (particularly chocolate which was my addiction), and will try cutting down to two nutritious meals a day (from three) ❤❤
Thank you so much, I can feel your positive vibes.I am 62 years old and i was so depressed and now i am working on it.Hope to watch your coming videos soon.
I'm 54 just starting my midlife journey to wellness. When you described your previous self I can relate. I'm beginning better eating and intermittent fasting and herbal teas. I really want to lose at least 50 lbs and need to do more self care exercise which I just started. I'll be a year into the change in about 3 weeks and this last month has been such an anxious one. Things need to change.
I absolutely love this channel!
It's so good to see other people here who just accept ageing as a natural part of their life. So beautiful thank you 💘
Intermittent fasting saved my menopausal arse (sorry for the language but that how bad it was) so big shout out to Mindy Pelz
As woman we always forget to love ourselves. Love watching you. Breathe of fresh air
Amen Sista!! Congratulations!!
I have been on my own mental & physical reclamation journey 🥳💯
I truly know that what you are saying is true. For me, it's just getting out of bad habits and bringing in this new way of life. Your spark is testament to it all. ❤
Your son was right! You are that inspiring woman! Thanks for your uplifting messages!💐
I am so very delighted to have discovered your channel!
Just ran across your video, wow just what I needed! Have my last 7 pounds to goal, struggling....I need to move more & get back into intermittent fasting, @ 75 I love my longer silver hair!
You look awesome!!❤
Stumbled across your video and have been binge watching more of your videos. I find you so inspiring! I am eating more plant based than ever nowadays as I’ll be 55 this November! Thank you for sharing your videos and your knowledge!
Your face has been popping up all over my TH-cam recommendations and I was drawn to your bubbly personality and beautiful silver hair, so tonight I clicked on this video and within minites I have subscribed to hear more as a fellow silver sister since the first lockdown and loving it. 😊
There is so much I would like to say to you, your channel popped up just when I needed it. My inner guidance was leading me in the right direction however because I gained 25 lbs in the last year and I wanted to lose it as fast as possible I started following a very strict Intermittent fasting which has been stressing me out. Listening to the information you share here proves I was on the right track originally. Thank you so much!! Im learning how my body works again, now that I am 54 which is so different than before. Thanks for all that you shared. 😊
I’ve ordered your book Gail & cannot wait to dive into it !
I just wish Sept 26th wasn’t so far off but I won’t wish the best months of the year away worrying about that now that I know you will be regularly posting on here.
I am 61 this May & want to look & feel better not younger just the best that I can be into my proper “pre” old age age !
At the moment I have some nasty aches & pains that have set in so I’m taking your advice & re-starting my IF way of eating which I’ve done before with great success & great effects . I think I slowly stopped eating that way when I hit my target weight & felt that I had to accomplish so much to just stay in maintenance mode with no real gains ?
I should’ve realised that the gains I achieved were being taken for granted & I could have my cake & eat it which of course is a journey to disaster without IF !!
….and who doesn’t love cake ?!!
So I’m so pleased I’ve stumbled upon you because I’d love to get back on the wagon & start living my best life again.
To be able to do anything, to not feel inflamed joints hurting & have a higher percentage of my bulging wardrobe available for me to wear because it fits me again which It certainly doesn’t at the moment !
Thank you Gail 👍
Ive just found your channel, and been doing I F (8-14) inbthe past and worked for me but then I stopped (big life changes, lost the focus).
Now I know, that finiding you again is my wake-up call to start again for a healthier me! Im 40 and i dont wanna gain more weight! Already carry some extra😬. So its never too late, as long as you start and not only just planning in your head!
You were right about the spark in your eyes in the old video compared it to this one! You are glowing, inside and out! Stay blessed! And thank you for your mission for us! 🫂🌷👌
What a transformation! Love your personality! Thank you for great advice.
It is true, it's not about one big change but a lot of single small steps. And staying consistent❤
You are a delight!
I’m also 56 and I just ordered your book and subscribed. Pleased to meet you!
Thank you! 🤗
I’ve been loving all
Your videos. Also a vegan… so much the same, and needing to get back into shape. Pre-ordered your book!!
Thank you.
Thanks for your Light! Just found you yesterday and I'm following you❤ I've been using IF for a few years but consistency has been my biggest issue. So THANK YOU for inspiring me to get on the train and stay there! I'm 57 and ready to take the leap! Be blessed!!! 💞Krissy from Michigan
Nik is amazing,Ive been following him for years....Full of peace and knowledge
You are an inspiration! I am so happy I have found your channel. Just having an example of the person who were able to turn their life around is incredibly important. Double bonus is that you are vegan. So many ideas! I am trying to go vegan for ethical reasons reasons, and your videos will definitely help me with that. Also, I have preordered your book! It is going to come out few days before my birthday, and will be a nice birthday present from me to myself 😊 Looking forward to reading it! Thank you again!
I've followed Nick's channel for years now and really value his insight and perspective he offers us. Most of us are going through life so fast that we don't stop to get the kind of perspective he is able to offer. One of the most truely kind souls I have ever witnessed. So elated that you mentioned him!
Congratulations on your book and your channel. I love watching your clips on fitness, food, fashion, and fun. You definitely have your sparkle back. Props to your son for his words of wisdom.
I’m ordering your book.. so inspiring! I’m 54 and thriving, your inspiration is so motivational..🤗🤗
Oh my goodness i I absolutely LOVE Venerable Nick and have met him twice along with Venerable Michael. What an inspiration they are. With the millions of videos on TH-cam I knew something special pulled me into yours. Now I know what it was. I am 70 and let myself go also. You are so right, the road to self care starts in the mind. I do have The Buddhist Cleanse and meditation book and journal. Now you also have inspired me to become a healthier soul mentally, physically and spiritually. Thank you Sister for sharing and thank you brothers Nick and Michael for always being within me. Blessings.
I’ve followed Nick for a few years now and have thought about trying two meals a day after watching him talk about it but haven’t yet. I came across you last week and am catching up on all your videos and IG posts. Will be buying the book too 😉
You have such a positive vibe❤️love watching your videos!
Thank you for this advice from your personal experience... it accords with what I have tried with Keto eating and intermittenet eating recommended by my GP. You are inspirational. Buddhism is also about manifesting your future self.
You’re looking great, I feel fat and sluggish so I need to give this intermittent fasting a try.
I’m 58, 5 ft 2 and 10stone 4 so I’ve jumped into the overweight category of the bmi, I have just come back from a weeks holiday (eating and drinking fest ) in Tenerife, no excuses now, thanks for your motivation,
best wishes, Lisa
It's exactly me ! Lost in the darkness ! I'm so happy & great full to find you 💗
For what it's worth, you looked pretty great before as well. You just look much happier now.
I've been watching your posts for some while not entirely sure what to make of them but this video has won me over! I am turning 60 next month and definitely feel out of kilter. I have always struggled with my weight and with the long term stress of caring for elderly parents have become very anxious. I am also coming to terms with being an empty nester. I do eat very healthily but my exercise has dropped away to the bare minimum. Now is definitely a good time for me to tackle these issues. I will be tuning in regularly to hear more of your story and helpful tips.
Love your Channel Gail. You are inspiring many women to live a healthy and happy life I too discovered Intermittent fasting a year ago. Eat 2 meals a day, the odd piece of pizza, icecream. Makes you feel energised for sure. I am 68. Important to rid the body of inflammation. 😊
New subscriber here. You got me hooked with your most recent what I eat in a day, no talking videos. Loved it! Enjoying your channel 🙌
I am very grateful for coming across your You Tube short videos and your channel. You are a fabulous breath of fresh air. I'm so inspired by everything you have done so far. Thank you!
I need your book now! Will preorder and start with gleaning tips from your videos. Many thanks x
I am so glad I found your channel you are a wonderful to listen to!
What an inspiration
So happy this channel turned up in my feed. Love me a beautiful bodhisattva spitting direct and imparting wisdom. Subscribed!
Wow I just love your top tier energy!! 💫 your son was absolutely right when he said you are her!! Thank you for sharing your story 🙏💐☺️
I paused the video at 2 minutes in order to buy your book. Looking forward to September, already! 😁 I have followed you for a while but this morning I knew that today was day 1 of my new pathway. I have practised most of the things you have mentioned, but they have definitely‘slipped’ and this has caused a rapid decline in the health of my body and mind. I look forward to beginning again, ith you as my guide. Totally inspired! ❤
You're an inspiration! I"m a 47 yr old perimenopausal woman . Like you, I have always enjoyed hiking and being outdoors, plus have a regular yoga and meditation practice. Not sure if it's hormonal but I feel like I have hit a wall, energy zapped, losing my motivation for exercise and things in general. Sleep is becoming worse and I just don't feel like myself. Anyways, I have found your videos to be really inspiring and will get myself a copy of your book. Your transformation is beautiful! I can feel your energy 🙏
May I suggest looking into iodine as well?
(In tears)…thank you for coming back to TH-cam. I can’t wait to buy your book. ❤
Thank you 🤗
I am 78 years old and I love your videos. You are an inspiration to women of any age. Thank you!
I’m so happy I found your channel Gail. You are “that woman” that I had been looking for... I’ve been attempting to find me again.
It’s funny how you ended with positively changing life. The pandemic Medicaid is over here in the US so I got disqualified from that free healthcare. Now my insurance on the platinum level is over $1200/month. Instead of my 1st reaction- I have to work more, get a side job! I decided to sell my excess stuff and sell art. I’m in a botanical drawing class to jump start the art. It’s a long journey but it needs to be done because someday the house must be cleared and sold. I’m making my way to manifesting that art studio surrounded by a small garden. I was a professional stone carver but didn’t have the confidence to carry on. The spiritual practice of yoga also really helped me grow up and shed resentments. Love your shine 🫶🏼
Just found your channel just when I needed it! Can’t wait to make positive life changes and bring my mojo back!😄🤣
I’m 67. I’ve been called mutton dressed as lamb more than once. I’ve watched your videos and the one where you say “I’m 56, I don’t care if you think I’m older, died, dug up and steamrolled” or words to that effect. I loved it. Your hair looks gorgeous, you are classy and look amazing. 😊
Thank you Gail ❤ so looking forward to your book x
You are so welcome
Wow thank you for this video loving the postive vibes
You’re amazing, I love your recipes and advice. I’m 46, and addicted to your channel, and preparing for the big FIVE OH 🎉
I’m 33 and I’m fasting for the month of Ramadan. That’s a 14 hours fast for me. Love ur advice and you’ve encouraged me to order a skipping rope!
I turned 55 last month. I am so glad you popped into my feed. You sound like one of my daughter’s friend’s mum whom I love so I feel like we are already friends! I love your fasting window but I like to exercise in the mornings without eating anything. So my window has to be different. This video is inspiring me to really cut that morning coffee with cream to get the benefits of a real fast through the morning! Can’t wait to see some more. Thanks for doing this!!!!
If you see this…what was that you ate during this clip. I definitely need some inspiration on what to eat. So bored of food….
☀️Gail, you are awesome! Thank you!🎉
I just found your channel and I love your message. You’re an inspiration. Thank you
I recently found you on TH-cam. Loving all your content so far. My only complaint is I wish I could watch in full screen. Thank You for your inspiration and sharing your journey with us!
Wow! What a wonderful positive transformational inspiration video for such a disciplined practice {intermittent fasting} Thank you for providing many women around the world the courage for that first step, to goal, is achievable.
I’m caring for my 94 year old father-in-law … it’s going on two years now… my life feels like it’s standing still. So much meal planning and prep … and sitting. I’ve got to summon up the discipline to do this!
My mantra "the book is coming...the book is coming" so grateful for this post... intermittent fasting is something i want to look into... great beginning...can you recommend a cookbook....i have watched all you videos from your start and gleaned what i can... Thank you once again....have a great day❤
I like BOSH. Those guys have some great recipes.
I just turned 43 today and I just came across your videos this past week...You are very inspiring...not many with your attitude and encouragement, Thank you!!
I love your inspirational videos. Keep the coming. Iam a 60 something who like you had has gained a few extra lbs
I love your positivity and how you've been manifesting your life . Amazing thank you. Xx❤
Just wanted to say thankyou for everything you are giving to us,,i need it all 🙏🏼
Just ordered the book! So happy I came across your channel. You are infectious and adorable! ❤️
Love your energy!! You are real. Thanks for sharing your thoughts, your habits and your eagerness to give out the best of you❤. Kisses from Zaragoza (Spain)....
I’m 55 and have been through a lot mentally and physically. You’re really inspiring me! One thing I can’t do is caffeine. Do you think it’s a big part of what has helped you? I know it’s great for weight loss.
Thank you so much for sharing your amazing journey with the World. STAY BLESSED ❤
I have just found your channel 😊 Great inspiration just what I need can’t wait to follow and watch your previous posts . We are considering a move to eastern Algarve and have a few trip planned this year 🥰
