Walk off 100 + pounds

Not long ago, Gina Buck got on a scale and saw that her weight had crept to 287 pounds. She was shocked. And then she started to get really worried about her health. \"l said, 'I'm not getting any closer to 300 pounds,\"' recalls the South Carolina retiree, 65, who has five beautiful granddaughters she wants to see grow up. \"So l went to the doctor for diet pills.\" Her doctor, a no-nonsense woman who'd overcome weight issues herself, agreed to three months of appetite suppressants as a jump-start. But she also \"prescribed\" long-term strategies, including taking 10,000 steps a day and intermittent fasting. \"It all made sense,\" Gina recalls.

And they would ultimately find that intermittent fasting has the power to help walkers like Gina triple their fat loss. Wow!
