How to Stay Healthy and Fit at ANY Age
A question I am most frequently asked is, “What do you do for workouts and healthy eating?”. What if I told you that I only work out for 30 minutes a day, only do cardio twice a week, and eat more now than I ever have before? Carbs are absolutely included. Does that sound too good to be true? Well it isn’t – it is 100% do-able and I have been living this way for almost FIVE years. There are SO many benefits to the FASTer Way to Fat Loss program and that is why I will NEVER stop participating in it! Whether you have been following along or this is your first time here, I have everything all in one place for easy access.

What is FASTer Way to Fat Loss?
FASTer Way to Fat Loss (FWTFL) is a sustainable lifestyle program that uses nutrition, intermittent fasting and workouts to lose fat and increase muscle. It is an online program with a personal FASTer Way Certified Coach. Your coach will teach and guide you through the program and be there for you for the duration of the program.
No matter how much weight you need to lose or what your goals are, this is the perfect program for anyone ready to commit to their journey!
My Personal Success
In only six weeks, I embarked on a reboot to bid farewell to the ‘fluff’ and refocus on my fitness goals. Having started my program in my 40s and now firmly in my fabulous 50s, I knew consistency was key. Despite not having much to lose initially, the scale happily reported a 7-pound farewell to the ‘fluff.’ After shedding those pounds, the muscle tone, which had been steadily built through consistent workouts, is now more pronounced and my clothes fit better, a testament to progress made!
I have found a great portion of my personal success can be attributed to the community ‘FASTer Way to Fat Loss’ has provided me. Signing up with a coach makes a world of a difference and I couldn’t be luckier to have Jocelyn! Jocelyn is my biggest cheerleader, consistent motivator, and such a patient teacher. Knowing that she is with me until the end means so much – she has taught me how to calculate macros, given tips and tricks for nutrition and workouts! CLICK HERE to sign up with Jocelyn – you won’t regret it!
These are my latest results since my latest ‘new year’ reboot of FWTFL. I cannot stress enough that these results are not only workout based but also based on nutrition. Don’t worry, you won’t need to figure that out on your own — this fitness program teaches you how to calculate your macros for optimal success. FWTFL offers meal-planning which I use as inspiration for my own recipes and ideas for meal-prep!

Real Life Review
Truth be told, I am not always the best eater and who really is? The dietary aspect is what trips me up most throughout my health journey. What I truly appreciate about this program is its flexibility. If I slip up one day, I simply start fresh the next. Let me say that for the people in the back -this program is SO forgiving! What matters most is getting back on track – life happens, things don’t go as planned, that’s what makes this program so amazing. Let this be a reminder and/or motivator that setbacks happen, but consistency and perseverance ultimately yield success with this program.
FAQ’s:
If you are food plan lover, then FWTFL has you covered! Not only do they offer an amazing meal plan, but it’s always changing so you will never get bored and you automatically add the meal to your FWTFL macro tracker! Easy peasy.
How Do I Sign Up?
The most important part about signing up is getting a good coach and signing up through her personal link. My coach is Jocelyn James and she is amazing! She keeps her groups small for personalized attention. You can join her group here. If you don’t sign up through a coach and sign up directly from the FASTer Way site you will get put into a very large group with an unknown coach.

Can I Still Enjoy Coffee and Wine?
Coffee: Yes! Even though you are fasting in the mornings, you can still drink coffee and tea. If you like creamer FWTFL recommends Nut Pods to help keep you in your fasting state. If you like to add sweetener they recommend Stevia. I drink my BCAA’s every morning and this one is approved by FWTFL since it does not have any artificial sweeteners. PRO Tip: it tastes delicious ice cold, but warm.. not so much! FWTFL also offers their very own BCAA’s now, too! It’s so good that you better grab it quick, because it always sells out!
Wine: Yes! Yes, you can! You only need to be sure it fits into your macros!
Is There Anything I Can’t Eat?
FWTFL would like you to eliminate gluten and dairy from your diet. I have a gluten intolerance, so I don’t consume gluten anyway. As for dairy, I love cheese way too much so I opted to keep it in my diet.
Why Have I Continued This Program After 5 Years?
The main reason that I started FWTFL was because I watched several women on Instagram go through the program. I saw how much they loved the program and I was witnessing results with my own eyes! I saw that they were eating a lot of food and they were shrinking before my own eyes. And, they seemed to really love it! Now, almost 5 years later, I am still LOVING the program! I am in the VIP program, because I truly love the workouts.
What I have gained from this program:
- I learned how to eat correctly for me (everyone is different) – portion and calorie control and learn how to calculate and eat for my macros.
- Learning the proper way to lose fat
- Toned body – the best shape I have ever been while working out less and eating more!
My Favorite Workout Gear
The FWTFL program includes both home and gym workouts. The workouts that they provide are easy, effective, and efficient. Working out doesn’t always fit in a busy schedule which is why I love that these are only 30 minutes or less, perfect for those of us who are always on-the-go!
Booty Bands | Dumbbell Rack with Three Sets | Resistance Bands | Foam Roller | Weight Lifting Gloves | Exercise Core Sliders | 15 lb Kettlebell | 25 lb Kettlebell | Weight Bench | Resistance Bands with Handles | Chrome Dumbbell Rack with Five Sets
If you are working out at home you will need handheld weights and access to a sturdy chair or bench. FWTFL shows three modifications for every move which is perfect if you are injured or have limited mobility! Anyone at any fitness level and age can do this program. Personally, I work out at home and have had amazing success. I use each item above (except the foam roller but I know those are SUPER popular).
My Everyday Morning Coffee
This my morning coffee routine. This combination will keep you in your fast.
If you are a coffee drinker then the Get off Your Acid coffee alkalizer neutralizes that acid in coffee which is so bad for you! Plus it has other benefits, too, so make sure to check it out!
Nut Pods Creamer | Acid-Kicking Coffee Alkalizer | Decaf Nespresso Pods | Nespresso Pods | Glass Coffee Mug
My BCAA’s
My Daily Protein Shake
This is my go to protein shake recipe for regular carb days. Just throw everything in the blender minus the mini-chocolate chips. After it’s well blended, stir in the mini-chips.
Plant-Based Raw Organic Meal | Peanut Butter Powder | Mom Fuel Protein Powder | Chocolate Instant Pudding | Mini Chocolate Chips
My Favorite Workout Outfit
Iced Iris Cropped Tank Top tts, XS | Thin Strap Racerback Bra | Taupe Quick Dry Workout Shorts tts, XS
In Conclusion
I believe that you can learn everything you need in the 6-week program to achieve continued results.
At $249, that’s only $41.50/week or less than $6/day for a personal coach, meal plan and workouts! It’s a no-brainer if you ask me!
After that you roll into the VIP program for $99/mo if you choose or you can cancel.
In my opinion, if you are self-motivated, you can continue forward on your own without the VIP membership program. You have already been intermittent fasting, have learned to eat properly and for your macros and how the workouts correlate with the eating days.
BUT, if you are someone that needs help with accountability, then you can stay in program as a VIP member. You will have your coach cheering you on and holding you accountable in a Facebook community with other VIP members and you will have complete access to all the workouts, meal plans and all the FWTFL portal contains.
OR, if you are like me, you love the workouts then the VIP membership is worth every penny.
