A dietitian-led metabolic reset with Danielle Omar & Regan Jones
ACTIVATE YOUR BODY’S CELLULAR INTELLIGENCE
STOP THE CONSTANT EATING CYCLE
ELIMINATE SUGAR CRAVINGS & GET MORE ENERGY.
Do you wake up hungry?
Get shaky and “hangry” when you don’t eat?
Do you crave sugar and snack between meals?
Feel tired and low energy after eating?
We lived this way, too.
As Dietitians, we ate healthy – but we didn’t realize we were sugar burners, unable to adapt easily to a fat burning state.
Once we started fasting, everything changed. We had more energy. The sugar and carb cravings stopped. We could go many hours without eating and not feel awful.
Our body adapted to burning fat.
This is called Metabolic Flexibility. And it’s super important, especially as we age.
It’s not normal to NEED food all day long, to feel hangry when you can’t get to food, or to feel sleepy after eating. These are actually SYMPTOMS of inflexibility – it’s not “just the way your body works”.
THIS PROGRAM IS FOR YOU IF:
YOU WANT TO ACTIVATE YOUR BODY’S SELF-HEALING ABILITIES. Your body is powerful and efficient at healing itself! Fasting can increase longevity by “turning on” cell-based rejuvenation and decreasing inflammation in the body.
YOU WANT TO SLOW DOWN AGING. Studies show that fasting helps to decrease markers associated with aging. Past participants of Fasting + Food lowered their resting heart rate and fasting blood sugars and had improved sleep quality.
YOU WANT TO RESET YOUR BODY’S HUNGER CUES. Fasting helps you to reconnect with your body and redefine your relationship with food. You’ll no longer eat “by the clock” and you’ll gain clarity around the difference between actual hunger and cravings or emotional eating.

Fasting has been used for centuries to heal the body and prevent disease.
It can help you live a longer, healthier life.
Prolonged fasting awakens the body’s built-in ability to heal itself from chronic disease and reverses many age-related illnesses in a natural way.
Fasting helps optimize your body’s innate, built-in capacity to heal itself.
It does this in part by flipping the switch on your cells to anti-age mode by promoting autophagy and cellular regeneration.
What is autophagy?
Autophagy is your body’s natural process of cellular repair and cleaning. It’s like a cellular reboot that helps your cells function more effectively. As you age, your cells collect inflammatory debris in the form of proteins and other damaged material. Over time, if this “waste” isn’t removed, your body starts to show signs of disease and other negative effects of aging.
Autophagy is your cells’ “self-cleaning” function.
We turn on our body’s autophagy function when we fast for prolonged periods of time.
Sounds amazing, right?
But, here’s the thing. There’s a catch to all of this fasting, self-healing magic…
Not eating is hard.
And that’s where Fasting + Food can help.
Because as Dietitians, we know food.
We created a 4-day fasting program that allows you to eat delicious, homemade food — and still get all of the amazing benefits of fasting. While it may seem counter-intuitive to fast and eat food at the same time, with the right calorie level and the right macro-nutrient mix, it IS possible to enter a state of metabolic ketosis that closely resembles that of a prolonged fast.
Sound too good to be true?
We thought so, too.
Until we tested it ourselves.
Are you ready for these results?

Fasting success stories
Holly P.
This program was the perfect reset that my body needed after quarantine! I feel so much lighter after shedding a few pounds and losing multiple inches off of my waist.
The food was easy to prepare and very tasty. Because the plan is flexible, I was able to eat the foods in the order that suited me best thus making it easier than anticipated to complete. I gained valuable information about my health as well as the way I think about hunger. I will be doing this again!.
I’m thrilled to report that because of the Fast I lost 7 pounds, felt full of energy, and my often bloated tummy felt happy and calm.
The Fast is well-organized with a simple to follow protocol and just a few easy to prepare recipes that were quite delicious. I went into the Fast with hopes to give myself digestive rest, to lose a few stubborn pounds, and to reset sugar cravings. I’m thrilled to report that because of the Fast I lost 7 pounds, felt full of energy, and my often bloated tummy felt happy and calm. Not only is the Fast a great way to reboot your habits, your cravings, and your body, but the professional support and nutrition education you receive along the way is key to successfully taking control of your health and wellness.

While on the fast, I learned what true hunger feels like; this has allowed me to choose nourishing food instead of empty calories at those times – because it’s food that I really want and not something else!
I decided to participate in Fasting + Food because I am actively trying to reduce my weight as I am postmenopausal and I’ve been diagnosed with fatty liver. When I started the fast I wasn’t sure if I would be able to stick to it, but my husband decided to fast with me to support my effort. We worked through each day together and learned when we were most hungry. What I liked best about the fast was I was able to prepare my own food with simple ingredients from home. As a result of the fast, we now feel we have a strategy to revitalize our body chemistry and jump-start weight loss. I also no longer believe that fasting for a short period is hard. I wasn’t expecting how easy it would be to prepare the soups and breakfast bar! While on the fast, I learned what true hunger feels like; this has allowed me to choose nourishing food instead of empty calories at those times – because it’s food that I really want and not something else!
What I liked best about the fast was that it is only four days. After only a couple of days I actually felt lighter, cleaner, healthier overall and ready to approach my daily food intake differently going forward.
I decided to participate in the fast for a couple of reasons, but mainly because I needed a reset. I was in such a rut with my diet, eating the same foods for lunch, breakfast and dinner with little or no impact on my weight. I needed a reset, a jumpstart in approaching my diet differently and by doing so, impacting my long term health and longevity.
What I liked best about the fast was that it is only four days. (You can do anything for just a few days!) And though you are drastically reducing your caloric intake, the program is fast “mimicking” -so you are actually eating real, homemade, delicious, fresh food!
I highly recommend doing the fast because it is really a great reset. After only a couple of days I actually felt lighter, cleaner, healthier overall and ready to approach my daily food intake differently going forward. I appreciated that by eating certain foods I could actually feel satiated. I also became more attune to whether my eating habits tend to be a result of boredom or true hunger.

WHILE ON THE FAST, THE SHIFTS I HAD WERE SIGNIFICANT. I WAS FAR LESS ANXIOUS AND CALMER THAN I WAS BEFORE. I FELT MORE EMPOWERED AND LESS VICTIMIZED BY FOOD AND MY WEIGHT.
I decided to participate in Fasting + Food because I wanted to give myself a head start on improving my relationship with food. I was also facing an unhealthy weight, reduced mobility and pain caused by inflammation. What I liked best about the fast was taking a break from the mental fatigue of fighting with myself about what to eat, reconnecting with my body, and giving myself a “win” by realizing I could do it.
As a result of the FAST, I now have confidence (and a track record!) that I will be okay if I miss a meal or have to delay eating for any reason. I also no longer believe I’m out of control with my eating or that “I can’t help it.” Now I believe that I’m able to choose what to eat, when to eat, and that I can change the way I feel by choosing different foods. What I wasn’t expecting was to feel so much better as far as the pain I was in from inflammation! I also wasn’t expecting to be okay with not eating (or eating very little), and now I find that I am snacking far less. Hooray! I simply don’t feel compelled to eat unless I’m actually physically hungry.
While on the fast, the shifts I had were significant. I was far less anxious and calmer than I was before. I felt more empowered and less victimized by food and my weight. I felt really proud of myself! This feeling has carried over post-fast. My head talk is naturally positive and encouraging and I instinctively know when to stop eating.
I highly recommend doing the fast because it’s a safe, controlled way to realign with your best health and move into a position of control and power where food is concerned as well as break the pattern of unhealthy habits.
WHILE ON THE FAST MY BLOOD SUGAR AND RESTING HEART RATE DROPPED, MY SLEEP IMPROVED, AND MY MIND AND SPIRIT FELT LIGHTER. I EVEN LOST 5 POUNDS!
After reading several books and articles on the benefits of fasting, I decided to participate in the fast to see for myself how it could improve my health and wellbeing. When I started the fast, my life was quite stressful, and my healthy eating habits had gone a bit off course. This deviation caused me to have an autoimmune disease flare up. I knew my body needed a reset that went deeper than just cleaning up what I was eating. What I liked best about the fast is that it was not as scary as I thought it would be. The delicious food, coupled with the support of Danielle, Regan, and our entire group made what seemed impossible–very doable.
As a result of the fast, I have a better understanding of how I view food, and how I often use it to placate my emotions. I no longer believe that I need to eat “by the clock”, and I now realize that I was eating more food than I truly needed to be satisfied. I now know that I need to listen more closely to what my body needs. What I was not expecting was the realization that I actually like feeling a bit hungry. Hunger is now a comfortable feeling that I have learned to honor.
While on the fast my blood sugar and resting heart rate dropped, my sleep improved, and my mind and spirit felt lighter. I had even lost about five pounds–which was an unexpected bonus! I was proud of the commitment I had made to myself!
I would recommend doing the fast to connect your mind to your eating. The insight and clarity I gained on how I use food changed dramatically. Since the fast I am savoring each bite, and as a result, I find myself eating less. A few grumbles from my tummy no longer send me reaching for food. I now pause and take a closer look at what is really going on. It is liberating to finally be a peace!
Many thanks to Danielle and Regan for this wonderful gift!

WHAT A GREAT PROGRAM TO RESET MY BODY AND MIND.
Fasting + Food reiterated to me that I can do anything and see results that I want to see, which for me was weight loss. It also helped me reset some habits and get in tune with my body even more. Simple, yet effective program and one I am looking forward to doing again!
AFTER COMPLETING THE PROGRAM I FEEL SO MUCH BETTER, I’M MORE IN TUNE WITH MY BODY’S HUNGER LEVELS AND HOW IT REACTS. I HAVE MORE CLARITY AROUND THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MY ACTUAL HUNGER AND CRAVINGS.
I liked the idea of being able to eat food as well as it being a short length of time, it seemed very attainable and it WAS! I did get hungry while on the program but is was VERY manageable. I’ve found that after completion of the program I feel so much better, I’m more in tune with my body’s hunger levels & how it reacts. I have more clarity around the difference between my actual hunger and cravings. I no longer believe I need to eat something when I think it’s “time” to eat. I’m listening to my body and what it needs. Added benefit I lost 7 lbs. and have kept it off. I highly recommend the Fasting + Food Program to anyone looking for an easy to follow program. It helped with my energy, self-control and cravings. It’s a turnkey way to thoroughly reset your body and positively alter your relationship with food.

I LOST 4 POUNDS AND HAVE KEPT THEM OFF BY EATING NUTRIENT DENSE FOODS IN PORTIONS RIGHT FOR ME AND I HAVE DECREASED MY SNACKING HABIT!
I feel mentally stronger since completing this fast+food program because it was challenging and I didn’t think I could finish it! Having the group support along with Danielle & Regan’s expertise helped me to stick with it and make it more fun as well, I doubt I would have completed it without this! My body responded with my glucose going down and my ketones going into a therapeutic range. I was very surprised that I had a normal bowel movement everyday on so little food because I have IBS C and a history of SIBO Methane! My biggest takeaway is that I don’t need to eat every time I feel a hunger pang! I lost 4 pounds as well and have kept them off by eating nutrient dense foods in portions right for me and I have decreased my snacking habit.
THE RESULTS? THREE WEEKS LATER, MY EATING GAME REMAINS ELEVATED. I WANT PLANT-BASED FOOD, HEALTHY FATS, AND LEAN PROTEIN. THIS FEELS LIKE A GAME-CHANGER FOR ME!
I decided to participate in the fast because I was curious how fasting could be completed with food. I have been an avid advocate of intermittent fasting/TRE since 2016 and continue to believe in its benefits. However, this type of fasting actually felt like a health reset for me as well. Eating whole plant-based foods is quite a change from the Keto diets advocated by many fasting protocols. The results? Three weeks later, my eating game remains elevated. I want plant-based food, healthy fats, and lean protein. This feels like a game-changer for me.
When I started the fast, I had been avoiding my blood-sugar readings because I was afraid. The protocol helped me faced my fear and enabled me to make major improvements with my readings within the space of a few days.
What I liked best about the fast was the group experience. While I am a decade-long participant in online self-development, I have tended to be a passive participant. I chose to engage by posting my concerns and experiences, and reading and responding to others’ posts. It really made it a powerful experience and easier to overcome the mindset hardships that can occur while fasting. Invaluable.

Frequently Asked Questions?
Are there certain people who SHOULD NOT fast?
Yes. Fasting + Food is not for everyone. If you have an existing medical condition we recommend that you ask your doctor before you begin to determine if fasting is a safe choice for you. This is especially true if you have a history of gallbladder or liver disease.
What if I don’t have a Facebook account? Can I still participate?
Yes, you can absolutely still participate in the program! All of the materials are housed inside the program website, not on Facebook. The Facebook group is just to ask questions, get support and be a part of the community, but it’s not required to do the program!
How many days is the fast?
The fast is a 6-day commitment. One pre-fast day, 4 fast days and 1 post-fast day.
Will I lose weight on the fast?
Many past participants have lost weight. Most lost an average between 5-10 pounds and experienced a decrease in weight circumference (i.e. belly fat) while fasting, but individual results will vary.
How long do I have access to the fast?
You will have access to the materials and the Facebook support group for life! You can re-use the fasting program over and over again to achieve long-term results.
How is fasting + food different from Intermittent Fasting?
Fasting + Food is different than intermittent fasting in that it is a prolonged fast lasting 4 days. Prolonged fasts trigger a process in the body called autophagy. And while it may seem counter-intuitive to fast and eat food at the same time, at a certain calorie level and with the right macronutrient mix, it IS possible!
How long do you have to fast to reach cell autophagy?
The autophagy process initiates after 18-20 hours of fasting, with maximum benefits at about 48–72 hours.
How many times should I complete the fast?
We recommend fasting for three consecutive months to achieve the best results.
Do I need to buy a ketone or glucose meter?
While not absolutely required to successfully complete the fast, testing your ketones and blood glucose throughout the process will help you gain a better sense of what is happening metabolically during the program.
Are the recipes FODMAP friendly?
Yes, all of the recipes are provided with substitutions for those who are sensitive to FODMAPs.
Are the recipes vegan?
Yes! All of the recipes are vegetarian with vegan options.
Are the recipes gluten free?
Yes, all of the recipes are gluten free and safe for those with gluten sensitivities or Celiac disease.
