Episode 269-RoxI Ruiz, A Long Term Faster with A Burning Passion to Help Others Shares Her Incredible Fasting Journey.

My name is Roxi Ruiz, and I am from McAllen, TX, which is located right on the Mexican/US border. My city has been voted the most obese city for 8 years in a row. I am the Mom of one amazing daughter. I am a Speech Language Pathologist who specialises in feeding disorders. I became an Intermittent fast in February of 2019 after being diagnosed with prediabetes and NAFLD. Both sides of my family have generational metabolic disorders. I found fasting when a coworker asked me to read Delay, Don’t Deny by Gin Stephens so she could get my opinion on fasting. I had never heard of IF before this. I started my first fast that evening. I have lost and maintained a 30-pound weight loss over 6 years, but more importantly, I have reversed my prediabetes and no longer have a fatty liver. I am one of two administrators for Gin Stephens’s Community. We are an online fasting community that is found off Facebook. When not working, I create content for my Instagram and TikTok accounts.
