Repeat., the bible of Intermittent Fasting, Gin Stephens uses her distinctive and winning blend of research, personal experience, and stories from IF-ers in her large and growing online community to take her ideas to the next level.

Clean(ish) will give readers: - A refresher on IF, or-if they aren't already trying IF-a primer - Food swaps, from meals to snacks to drinks, that will help anyone stay on their personal IF track - A Break from Fake: key strategies to pursue, from eating whole foods to recognizing stealthy processed non-foods, for optimum performance from every one of our body's systems - A new understanding of how our individual environments impact IF and Clean(ish) living: an audit of our medicine cabinets, make-up bags, and the box of supplies we all have under our sinks to remove disruptive toxins. - A trusted voice who is a cheerleader for real-world behaviors As Gin says, "clean-ish" means that we develop a focus on real foods and a healthier home environment that is free of obvious toxins, without becoming fixated on perfection.

Gin Stephens is unstoppable! And she won't even pause until she's introduced every potential reader to Intermittent Fasting. In her 28-Day FAST Start Day-By-Day, she dispenses the "hows" and "whys" of IF day by day for a reader's first month, giving IFers what they need to know, when they need to know it. Supported throughout with inspirational case histories that add up to a troubleshooting primer, as well as tips, truths and tweaks, 28-Day FAST Start Day-By-Day also has an important write-in aspect. Most IFers "fail" because they don't think the practice is working, or think it's only working because they are naturally reducing calories by time-boxing their daily eating. With simple, direct check-ins at the end of each of the first twenty-eight days, readers will stay on track by noticing how their bodies are reacting to IF, acknowledging "non scale victories" and setting a goal for the next day: it's Gin's version of habit formation, and it works! 28-Day FAST Start Day-By-Day is a complete program. Almost everything except the time framework will feel new even to readers of FAST. FEAST. REPEAT., from picking an entry speed ("Easy Does It", "Steady Build" or "Rip Off The Band-Aid") on Day One to discovering your "Appestat" (Appetite Thermostat) in the middle of the month to "Master the Delay" on Day Twenty-Eight.
