Daniel Deal is 47 years old and lives and works in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma USA. He Has been married to his amazing wife for 21 years and they have a 16-year older daughter. Daniel started IF in September of 2018 after a family vacation in where his weight kept him from being able to do some of the activities with his wife and daughter. After returning home, he was determined to find something he could do and stick with forever to get the weight off and keep it off.
After googling “why regular diets don’t work long term”, he came across some Dr Jason Fung videos on fasting and something clicked. He read everything he could about the subject and started on September 9 2018. So far, he has lost an incredible 72kg (160 pounds) and feels amazing.
Daniel told us that he has taken up running and since the interview, he just completed his first 5 k in a very respectable time. He tells of his passion to share information about fasting and has several family and friends who have followed his example and taken up intermittent fasting including his dad. Daniel is shining light for this lifestyle and gives a great account of his thought-provoking journey.
