In this episode of Fast To Heal Stories, Shana talks with Lydia Mader. Lydia is a sophomore in college, leading the busy, and oftentimes, unhealthy college lifestyle! In her freshman year, she gained about 15 pounds, but since working with Shana and implementing the Fast To Heal concepts, has lost 30 pounds. Lydia has struggled with her weight most of her life. She continually gained more weight as she went through high school, and her first year of college. She dealt with daily food cravings, binge eating, carbohydrate addiction, digestive distress, ADHD, allergies and preoccupation with food. She knew this was not normal. Lydia and her mom asked Shana for help, read Fast To Heal, and haven't looked back. In this episode, hear how Lydia kicked her carbohydrate addiction, how she overcame a stall in weight loss, and how she is now thriving on her college campus despite constant temptations. She also discusses her current digestive health. Lydia talks about her approach to weight loss, what has worked, what she is still working on, how she deals with stress, and what recommendations she has for others starting this lifestyle.
