Addressing a Plateau

  • One of the most frequently asked questions Vinnie gets is about weight loss plateaus. (33:00)
    • People will often loosen the reins a bit, but then struggle to return fully to NSNG®.

    • The COVID years are no longer an excuse. It’s been 5 years—snap out of it! (35:00)

    • There is a difference between using an eating window for the benefits of autophagy and going overboard and not fueling your body.
    • For some people, overdoing the fasting can cause a rebound in weight. 
    • Don’t try to serve too many kings—just stick to NSNG®, and your body will level out.
