Fat to Fit: The Journey of Fasting, Hormone Balancing, and Mental FortitudeEmbarking on the journey from fat to fit is not merely a physical transformation; it's a holistic overhaul of one's body, mind, and spirit. As someone who has lived through the struggle of battling obesity, I can attest to the profound impact that fasting, hormone optimization, and mental resilience can have on this journey.Fasting: Torch the FatFasting, the practice of abstaining from food for extended periods, is a powerful tool in the fat loss arsenal.
