Bonnie is a 63-year-old woman from the United States. She and her husband live in Oregon. She works full-time in an office setting. After being very thin throughout childhood and teen years, Bonnie first experienced the need to lose weight in her mid-twenties, following the birth of her first child. Like her mom before her, she used Weight Watchers to lose weight successfully, but could not sustain the program for very long or maintain the weight loss. Using that and numerous other methods, she was in a repetitive cycle of weight loss and regain more each time for decades.
She first learned about IF in 2017 through Dr Jason Fung's book The Obesity Code. She found the science very convincing, and it helped her feel hope for a better health future than her family's. She started IF but couldn’t make it stick. In 2020, she discovered the importance of Clean Fasting and tried a few more times with some success, but not yet with consistency. She felt frustrated and self-condemned for how far she had let herself go and for not having the fortitude to stick with anything. In January 2025, Bonnie turned the corner toward a better quality of life now and optimism about her future health when she committed to a life practice of IF. With consistent daily fasting and trying different fasting protocols, she found the groove thatworked best for her and lost over 50 lbs. She has been maintaining the loss for five months. She may adjust protocols, as needed, but believes IF will always be part of her life. She is not looking back. She continues to grow as a student of IF science, making better food choices, and adding strength training and intentional movement to her routine to help her age with strength. She enjoys the fasting community, learning from and sharing ideas andencouragement with others.
