Episode 268 -Richard Chuter A schoolteacher who has found renewed health in his fifties from living an Intermittent Fasting Lifestyle.

Bio By Richard Chuter

I'm Richard. 57 years old. 2 children, one son who is 22 and a daughter who is 14. Married to Natalie. Live in Norfolk, UK. Never really bothered about the fact that mid-life with gain was happening. Took it as part of life, and the expanding belly was just something to live with. Lockdown brought a realisation that I was overweight and unfit. Health problems had started with knee pain and fluid building up around the knee.

The doctor didn't suggest that it was a weight issue causing this, but lockdown walks with my family were painful and quite humiliating. My son commented about my weight jokingly, but that was part of the drive for change. Could not shift the weight with exercise and had not considered diet, as I didn't think they worked from what I knew. Xmas 2020/21 was when I found Graeme Curries book The Fasting Highway and podcast. I'm not sure what internet search brought me to you, but the front cover was exactly what I needed to see. Dramatic change was possible.

Read The Fasting Highway daily and stick religiously to your suggested 16:8 routine with black coffee. It was probably 17:7 for the most part, but the change was dramatic.

People noticed, and work colleagues who were struggling with weight joined in. Some are still fasting. 2025... I've been playing county sports events for over 50 years in racketball. I'm an indoor cycling fanatic, and it's great for my knees. I'm maintaining at 176 lbs. I have never felt so good about my health and weight.

I do suggest fasting to people if they ask about how I lost weight and how I live now, but I wish more people knew that you don't have to live an unhappy life with obesity related health issues.
