<p>Jay: After a diagnosis of Stage III kidney disease in 2018, I committed to a whole-food, plant-predominant diet, which includes seafood two to three times a week. The results were encouraging, as my kidney function and lipid profile improved dramatically. The switch also resulted in a 25-pound weight loss. When Rondi began intermittent fasting in 2020, I saw her positive results and began eating in an 18-6 or 19-5 window. I lost another 10 pounds and experienced an improvement in my HbA1c; I was no longer pre-diabetic. Three years ago, I transitioned to a one-meal-a-day regimen to get our eating schedules more in synch. Unless dining out with friends, we eat once each day at about 4 pm. My kidney filtration rate and creatinine reading have actually improved, which surprised my primary care doctor at my most recent annual physical. My nephrologist, who is also an IF devotee, took me off high blood pressure medicine six months ago, another very positive step. Intermittent fasting has improved my health in numerous measurable ways, and I will keep this eating pattern for the rest of my life. </p><p><br></p><p> Rondi: In 2020, after a lifetime of working hard to keep my weight within the normal range, I discovered intermittent fasting. I quickly transitioned into a one-meal-a-day lifestyle. That meal normally consists of seafood, green vegetables, and usually a small dessert. Gradually, over several years, my weight came down to 135 pounds. My heaviest weight was 192, so my total weight loss was 57 pounds. I still have to watch my carb intake. Intermittent fasting changed my life, and I will be an OMAD-er for the rest of my life. </p><p></p><p><strong>Graeme&#39;s Links to connect with me directly.</strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Please  Come and Join Our Patreon Community At the Link Below</strong></p><p><strong>www.patreon.com/thefastinghighway.</strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Sign up for a month or stay for a year, check it out, and get all the content.
