Story
Appetite Correction (AC) is a revolutionary new focus in weight loss based on years of user experience with Dr. Bert’s ground-breaking guide to daily intermittent fasting, The Fast-5 Diet and the Fast-5 Lifestyle. AC means getting your body’s appetite center working again, so not only do you lose excess fat, you lose it without being hungry, and once you’ve lost the weight, it stays off if you maintain the flexible, low-effort AC lifestyle. When the appetite center is working properly, you don’t want to eat more than you need.

We are in the midst of an obesity epidemic, but despite being inundated with diet advice we are only getting fatter. We count calories and exercise regularly, yet still the pounds won't budge. Why? In this highly enjoyable and provocative book, Dr Jason Fung sets out a groundbreaking new theory: that obesity is caused by our hormones, rather than a lack of self-control. He reveals that overproduction of insulin in the body is the root cause of obesity and obesity-related illnesses including type 2 diabetes

In recent years, intermittent fasting - restricting calorie intake for a set number of hours or days - has become an increasingly popular diet strategy. While some in the medical community initially dismissed the idea as a dangerous fad, recent research not only validates the safety of fasting for weight loss but also offers compelling evidence of wide-ranging health benefits, from reversal of diabetes and other metabolic disorders to enhanced cognitive function and increased longevity.

But the truth, as Dr. Fung reveals in this paradigm-shifting book, is that type 2 diabetes is reversible. Writing with clear, persuasive language, he explains why conventional treatments that rely on insulin or other blood-glucose-lowering drugs can actually exacerbate the problem, leading to significant weight gain and even heart disease.

No topic is too lowly for the author's wonder and admiration, from the careful choreography of breaking wind to the precise internal communication required for a cleansing vomit.

Is it possible to eat well, drink wine, and still lose weight? Melanie Avalon is living proof that it's not only possible, it's unbelievably simple and straightforward. It's all about the what (mostly paleo, but she's not a monster about it), the when (believe it or not, brief fasting can mean freedom rather than restriction), and the wine (red wine can be a secret bullet for weight loss - who knew?). It's a combination that Avalon discovered after years of self-experimentation and intense research on the mechanics of body fat regulation.

Excellent listen for *anyone interested in Health
I highly recommend, and enjoyed, this book. First off, if you are 'new' to IF or wondering about it, please, please do yourself a favor and just do it. This book, and several others, are God sends. I changed my entire life by starting IF. I did Atkins, Keto, allll the "diets" and every one failed me and were simply too difficult to maintain, long term. I will IF for the rest of my life, no questions asked. My husband, who had no weight to lose, also does it due to the enormous health benefits.
I believe that learning about this has changed our lives for the better, and it is not about dieting.
I have lost over 60 lbs and for the first time in my life, and in my 50's, feel truly in control of my weight and my health.
I am actually Angry that this information was not available to me earlier in life and I had struggled for YEARS due to all of the (government supported) misinformation about how to eat. It is Shameful how out-of-date health information is and that doctors are not required to know how food, and fasting, can change your body and health 100%. It's ridiculous. Pill pushers. :(
I am now *off my thyroid medication as well as my Type 2 D. metformin. All due to this new, very simple, very powerful, knowledge.
Now for the book itself. I quite enjoyed it and also got her other one. I like the conversational and down to earth tone of the book, it felt like a friend was talking to me and is not as technical as some of the others on the market (you should still get those, knowledge is power, and this is your Life we are talking about!).
I started small with fasts, only skipping a meal a day, and now I can fast up to 2 days with nearly no effort or discomfort, which I do every week. It's like a muscle, I got stronger at it with time and practice.
My weight is at its best and in my 50's I literally have a bikini ready body, while I had been over 200 lbs most of my life! While I was always on "diets", exercising so much without losing weight, not understanding WHY my body was broken. It wasn't!!
The system is broken. Only you can fix you, no pills, no diets, no doctors. I can't tell you how many times I broke down and how desperately I would have done anything to be thin and healthy, and the Whole time this simple answer was being kept from me.
Get the book. You have nothing to lose but baggage, weight, and your helplessness. It is SO worth it, and so are you. Good luck!

Best weight loss book I’ve ever read.
I’ve read and tried pretty much every weight loss and diet method or book ever. I’ve lost some weight on all of them and generally gained back what I lost and more. I’ve been gaining weight steadily year over year.
In April of 2019 I discovered Delay, Don’t Deny by Gin Stephens and it absolutely changed my life. I don’t diet anymore. I just follow the simple lifestyle of Intermittent Fasting and I’ve been able to lose almost 30 pounds. I’ve even kept it off during times of plateau.
I dropped at least 1 pant size.
Gin explains the science behind Intermittent Fasting so beautifully that it makes sense.
You will not regret buying this book. Follow Gin’s simple advice and IF will work for you too.

Makes SO much sense
Gin Stephens explains how to easily adjust to IF and explains why IF makes so much sense. I can highly recommend this book to anybody who is interested in managing your health, weight and improve most aspects of your life. IF is easy, successful and life changing. Do not be afraid to try IF - if I can do it anybody can. Thanks Gin.

inspiration to try IF
I have never struggled with my weight but as I age, I am feeling tired, creaky and not at my best. I saw a TEDtalk about IF and autophagy and I wanted to learn more. I have been fasting for almost a year and I have never felt so good.

Fantastic
This was a wonderful read. Gin's information is simple to understand and implement and the tone of the book is light and enjoyable. I was worried at first that it wouldn't talk enough about the science, but it included just the right amount, with plenty of resources to go to if I want to find out more. (In truth, I've already read several of the other books she mentioned, but this brought all of the concepts together neatly.) The best news? I made one simple change after starting this book three days ago--switching to black coffee in the mornings--and I've already lost weight. So this works.

A constant contradiction
She says she did one thing but then admits to doing another. She ate one meal per day is the summary. There I saved you hours.

Thank You
When I was a young adult I ate mainly one meal a day. I never had a weight issue.and felt great. After having 4 children I gained weight probably 15 lbs. I joined weight watchers with some girlfriends and bought into the fat free and sugar free craze. initially losing the weight. I followed that way of cooking and eating for several year and my entire family put on weight. The more I dieted the larger I got. I have tried many of the popular diets since. The best I felt was on keto but didnt lose much weight. it amazes me that I rarely felt hungry, Sometimes the abundance of fat was a bit much on my stomach and I hate giving up carbs as well. My brain kept telling me all of this fat cannot be good. I am currently around 160 lbs am 5' 5' and 57 years old.
I often eat one meal a day and have been criticized for it on numerous occasions. it is relieving to hear that I am not alone in feeling my best when I am not eating 3 meals or snacking. I will have to cut out the flavoured soda water and occasional diet soda and cream in my coffee. i know I can do this. For me the big issue is wondering about what is the right plan for me, one that feels right and fits in with my family. my. husband wouldnt skip a medley unless he is sick. he eats out of habit and I believe because his body is conditioned to 3 meals a day.
I plan to join the FB group and hopefully it won't take me to many days to get into the groove of OMAD.

Have a print copy, STILL bought Audible version!
Two doctors and a nutritionist recommended Intermittent Fasting for me. It sounded kooky and restrictive and impossible for a long while and then I Googled around and found Gin's podcast which led me to her books (Delay, Don't Deny and Feast without Fear). Gin's clear explanations made it seem a lot less kooky, a lot less restrictive, and a lot more manageable for someone who wants a normal life that involves sharing meals and social events with family and friends. DDD is a perfect introduction and also provides lots of background reading for those who want to dig deeper into the medical studies and science. I've shared her chapter describing insulin resistance a few times already to explain why I'm doing IF. Gin also has a delightful Georgia accent and genuine laugh that makes listening enjoyable. This is a great book to get started. If you want to keep it simple, you can just dive right in. If you want to learn more, she provides the annotated bibliography.

Skip and read Obesity Code by Dr Jung. Seriously.
You may notice that this author cites Dr Jung ad nausaum. However, Dr Jung NEVER cites this author and there's a reason for that.
This is simply HER own success story. Gin is a teacher, not a scientist, nutritionist, dietitian or physician and is monumentally unqualified to write about anything other than her own experience. SO, this is actually a memoir, not so much a guide.
The narration is unfortunate, but tolerable. But I truly think authors shouldn't narrate their own books. There are professionals for that.
Her Facebook groups and podcasts are riddled with horrible misinformation, dangerously so. The podcasts peddle MLMs, subscription boxes and woo. When challenged, Gin simply shuts down commenting, deletes other comments, or simply deletes the entire post. Each post is reviewed by her personally before it can even be asked. This lacks transparency and authenticity.
Fat does NOT "turn into muscle." Muscle does NOT WEIGH more than fat. Himalayan salt is just SALT. It isn't a cure all. It is NOT okay to binge on fast food, cupcakes, milkshakes, and coffee creamer during a window.
This book is a guide to a binge eating disorder.
Proceed with extreme caution.

I love this way of life!
I have been fasting since January and could not be happier with the way I feel! I have read this book twice already and still wanted the audiobook! I recommend Gin’s other books as well.

Changed my life!
I found this book on a recommendation from a friend. After 20+ years of yo-yo dieting and gaining and losing weight and feeling like a failure, this book has changed my life forever. I read the book in record time and began implementing IF immediately. The lifestyle was easy to implement, made so much sense, and I lost 20 pounds in the first 6 weeks. Was able to stay on the lifestyle while on vacation recently, and even lost 2 more pounds! I no longer have the defeating mentality that I've had for so long, I feel healthier, and I'm enjoying life. IF is so worth it, and this book allowed me to make this life change. I recommend it to anyone and everyone!

Sanity at last
The concepts described in this book are simple and sane. The author explains the benefits of intermittent fasting thoroughly and in easy to understand language. She also describes various ways to fast, how to get started, and helpful hints for the journey. Additional resources are provided for readers who want to read more of the science behind IF.
The author's personal story is very relatable and will sound familiar to many of us who have yo-yo dieted.
I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in IF.

This is the last 'diet' you will need to try
As a 'questioner' in the Gretchen Rubin "The Four Tendencies" framework I usually only listen to experts with credentials, or other credible sources like WireCutter or Consumer Reports -- People and organizations that are reliably credible. And while Gin isn't a doctor and doesn't have a degree in nutritional science and is not a registered dietitian, she has gained my respect because of her relentless review of research and the fact that she has personally tried about 25 diets. So with that caveat, I am about 8 weeks in with this intermittent fasting routine, and it has become a lifestyle for me. The research is abundant and incredibly persuasive - intermittent fasting improves health from the cellular level, and some of the side effects are healing 'leaky gut', improved cognition, less sensitivity in terms of what you can eat, more energy, and weight loss. Gin Stephens didn't invent intermittent fasting but she has perfected the strategy and the details of what 'clean' fasting is and it really does work. If you have been struggling with not being able to lose weight, you have a tire around your belly, you can't eat a lot of foods because they are inflammatory, you feel fatigued all the time, you feel like you are not thinking as clearly as you should... then this book is worth the read!

Basic
Easy read but everything in this book is basically what you can find online in a quick 20 minutes browse. I didn’t learn anything new :(

Life Changing!
This is a fabulous introduction to the idea of intermittent fasting! The author explains everything so clearly and adds a lot of humor to the topic. Delay, Don't Deny has really changed the way I think about food, weight loss, and overall health. I have found freedom after years and years of failed diets. Intermittent fasting makes so much sense to me and it's something I will be able to adopt for the long term. I'm so happy to have found this book!

Awesome!!
I have actually read the hard copy of this book twice.. but I wanted to be able to have quick access while driving or away on trips. Best investment ever.. I love to hear Gin speak.. and I can hear her words of wisdom in my head!! This is a way of life.. it's not a diet you get on and then get off. I am so very thankful for this genuine lady and many others who are making a difference in the lives of so many.
