The real willpower hack is needing less of it! The reality is the environments we inhabit shape the health choices we make every day. Whether we find our strength in the quiet solitude of nature or the vibrant energy of a city, we are learning how to design our surroundings to make fasting, nutrient-dense eating, and intentional movement the path of least resistance.

It’s time to stop fighting against our spaces and start building an environment where reaching our weight loss goals feels natural and sustainable. Let’s empower ourselves by creating the space we need to truly thrive.

Join me for a discussion of a vision of a fasting-based health system... right from the pages of one of the preeminent medical journals in America!

As a society we have not appreciated the profound nature of fasting. This article grounds us in the biological reality of fasting and inspires with a vision of bringing the healing potential into the mainstream of the system.

The potential is great. The realization of even a fraction of the potential will take much thoughtful, deliberate, compassionate and courageous effort.

Even if a grand vision like this is not realized in the short term, we can do our part and take the best care of our own selves that we can. Then radiate that health out to the best of our ability.

What if a plateau isn't a sign that you're failing, but proof that you’ve succeeded in reaching a new level? In today’s session, ‘Beyond Our Upper Limit,’ we’re reframing those moments when the scale stops moving. Instead of viewing a stall as a wall, we’re seeing it as a necessary ‘Basecamp.’

This is a space where we give ourselves the room to adjust to our new circumstances. We flow through these periods of transition by prioritizing the paths that got us there. Open space, nutrient-dense food, vitality-focused movement, and the mental health support we need to stay resilient while our bodies recalibrate.

Don’t fear or fight a plateau. Embrace the opportunity it represents and you will find yourself moving beyond it.

True weight loss isn't about what we take away; it’s about what we give back to ourselves. In today’s session, 'Empower Yourself,' we look at fasting as the ultimate tool for self-investment. We break down the resources we need for our journey by prioritizing nutrient-dense food, intentional exercise and the mental health support we all need to stay resilient.

It’s time to stop ‘just getting by' and start giving ourselves the space and the tools to truly thrive and reach our goals together.

"It's not about what you want to achieve, rather who you want to be." This is a paraphrase from a section of Atomic Habits that I find fascinating.

Who do you want to be? In the health space? You fill in your blank... I am a person who is __________.

Transformation is a really big word. It's so much bigger than "I lost some weight." In ordered for an event or process to be "transformative" I would say it has to be in the "life changing" level. Im talking caterpillar to butterfly level change.

A fasting process offers this level of transformation. Not all at once. Not in any sort of hype-laden process. But as a true journey of self-exploration and self-expression.

Let's dive right at this space of transformation. It sits at the core of our being, where our identity resides.

Sincerely,
-Phil Zimmermann, MD

One of the most difficult things about a weight loss path, or any new endeavor for that matter, is that it involves change. This leads us to a new place. The unknown. Our human nature has a tendency to seek what is familiar. We fear what is unfamiliar.

It is time to move beyond our fear.
