TRANSCRIBED: THIS WEEK EPISODE OF THE LOVE TO LIVE HEALTHY SHOW WITH JOSEPHINE FITZPATRICK
Hi everyone, welcome to the Love to Live Healthy show. My name is Josephine Fitzpatrick. Today’s episode is how Can I Get Quick Weight Loss? How do I lose the most weight in the shortest amount of time? Clients ask me this question every day.
Last week’s episode, if you listened, was all about the three top ways to lose 5 to 7 pounds in one week. We went over the regular innovation, we went over the detox and we went over the five hour fasting All great ways to get 5 to 7 pounds off in one week. Now we are going to talk about doubling down. We’re going to double down and change it up enough so that our body gets confused and when our body gets confused, it will help us keep those numbers going. We want to keep continuing to lose weight, and that’s why we’re doubling down.
One thing I do want to tell you is I really believe the healthiest program you can do is the signature innovation 3 meals and 1 to 2 snacks. It’s slow, it’s steady, it’s 1 to 2 pounds a week, but it’s great because while you’re losing weight, you’re learning at the same time to incorporate healthy habits into your daily life, and that’s what makes it so great.
However, that does not work for everyone. That doesn’t work for someone who has resistant fat or maybe has a medical issues or going through menopause. This is how I came up with the doubling down. This is why I created the 5 hour fast and the detox and doubling down on them, because if you have resistant fat and find it impossible to lose weight or if you have medical issues, or if you just stuck with your weight loss, these methods will help you lose the weight, regardless of why your body is resistant.
I use it all the time with clients who try to lose weight and struggle to lose 1 pound. Maybe it’s genetic, maybe it’s medical, doesn’t matter. They’re struggling to lose that 1 pound and that is not motivating. Who is going to stay on a diet when you can’t lose a pound because you have resistant fat or because you have a medical issues or because you’re going through menopause. I created these because they work and when clients see the results, they are so excited.
But please, before you try weight loss, make sure you consult your doctor.
What is Doubling Down: What I find to be the best and I’ve used it on thousands of clients is the combination of the fasting and the detox Not one, not the other, but both in the same week. I call it doubling down. You’re taking two great weight loss methods, two quick weight loss methods, and you’re combining them in one week and it confuses the body so much that it gives you amazing results. Not only does it work great, but the clients love doing it because it’s mentally exciting. It’s not the same thing all week over and over. It makes the time go faster and you feel like just when you had enough of one, you’re starting the next one. And, of course, one of the main reasons they love it is because they see the results. And when we see results, everything feels worth it.
I originally started the doubling down for clients who really had resistant fat. They just struggled. They would go on their regular innovation program or was on any weight loss program and they would lose a little weight and then it would just stop and it would not move, no matter how little they ate.
Once I started these methods, their weight loss took off. Every week they would see two to three pounds. That’s a lot of weight loss for someone who has resistant fat. That’s a lot for someone whose body is running so much slower because they have a medical issue or menopause. So when you see weight loss like that after trying so hard, and you can’t get a pound off. You are so excited it works.
METHODS: First, let’s go over the detox and the five hours. For those of you who are new, not sure or just need a refresher. The five hour fast is when you do two meals and one snack and you do it in the same five hours every day Monday through Friday. It’s what I would refer to as a breakfast or lunch for your first meal and a dinner for your second meal and then a snack for your third. They are all on program healthy meals/snack. If you’re not sure, listen to our last podcast I gave examples.
The detox is when you do one detox drink, one meal with two cups of veggies and one MCT muffin, unlike the five hour where you have to do it in the same five hours every day. It doesn’t matter what time you do the detox. It doesn’t matter what order you do it in, although I tell clients all the time start with the drink, because the drink has the appetite suppressant in it and it will help you not feel hungry. I see clients do these methods all the time and they do really well with them. We must remember we’re always drinking water throughout the day. It’s very important to stay hydrated.
5 HOUR FAST: The first thing you want to do is figure out what your five hours are that you’re comfortable with. If you have already done the 5 hour in the past you might already know what you’re capable of. But if you haven’t done the five hour you have to figure out what you can do in that week. For example, if you’re planning on doing the five hour and you’re going to eat from one to six, but you have dinner plans at six o’clock on Thursday, well, you can’t do the five hour from one to six because you have to be done eating at six. So it’s very important to know what your week looks like and if you’re capable of doing it and if you are, what would be the five hours that you can do it in?
Okay, so let’s now start the double down with your week.
If you are doubling down, this is what your first week would look like.
You want to start with three fasting days and two detox days. So your first three days are fasting and your last two days are detox, or you can reverse it and start with three detox days and two fasting days. The key is the first three days are the same and the last two days are the same, regardless of if you do the detox first or the fasting first.
So say, the first week you do the fasting Monday through Wednesday and detox Thursday and Friday. Then you would do a regular weigh-in on Saturday morning, and continue a regular innovation weekend on Saturday and Sunday of 3 meals and 1-2 snacks. You would incorporate one cheat meal and one cheat dessert on Saturday or Sunday.
The following week you can reverse it and you can do three detox days and two fasting days and again Saturday morning you weigh in and you do a regular innovation weekend with your cheat meal and cheat dessert or drinks -if you’re drinking and you’re over 21.
Normally what I do with clients is I start them on the regular innovation week. I see how they do, and I see how their weight loss goes. Then I will go to the detox for a week, and then I will have them do the fasting for the next week. This gives me an idea of how they do and what they are capable of doing.
So start by doing one week of each. Figure out what you are capable of first, then you can double down once you’ve tried all three.
This is how your first couple of weeks would look when you’re doubling down.
Now, listen, it’s hard. Detox is hard, weight loss is hard, fasting is hard. For some, even regular innovation is hard. But you have to know if you want to lose weight, you have to put the work in. So you have to figure out what works for you both mentally and physically and do it.
Start by figuring out your week. See what works for you. When you figure out your week and you see what works for you, that’s what’s going to make all the difference and that is when you can begin.
But I promise you, if you do this and you’re struggling with any type of resistant fat, if you’re struggling with any type of medical issues or menopause this is going to work for you. So give it a try, see how you do. I know you will be really happy you did it.
You will say “yes it was challenging but it works amazing”
You can always reach out to me and ask me any questions. I’m always here for you. Okay, I’m wishing everyone a happy, healthy week. Give it a go, give it a try, see how you do and let me know.

YOU DON’T HAVE TO HAVE ALL THE ANSWERS – Life isn’t supposed to be easy. You don’t reach a certain age, a certain social status, a certain position in your career, and suddenly have it all. There isn’t a secret potion, a lucky token, or even a prayer that will change the course of your life with a snap of your fingers. And sometimes not knowing can be uncomfortable. But when it comes to weight loss – what we can find comfort in is that when you plan – prepare and follow through with your menu – and when you don’t eat in between your meals, and you work really hard – and be consistent – you will absolutely see results. And you know this because you have seen the results of so many clients around you.[dt_sc_hr_invisible_small]
RESULTS: When it comes to weight loss the best way to see results is to just start. You have to work hard, push yourself and be okay with being outside of your comfort zone. Sometimes we feel we need to have all the answers or it has to be the perfect time but the truth is there is no perfect time and you will never have all the answers. What is most important is to just start – follow and be consistent. What you need to know is that every day that you follow you will learn more. Every day that you are consistent you will see results. It’s okay to feel out of your comfort zone. Many of you who first started the Innovation program and now the Ketovation program were completely out of your comfort zone. Yet, you trusted me, you listened, you followed, learned – worked hard-and the results have been absolutely amazing. [dt_sc_hr_invisible_small]
YOU CAN GET PAST THE CHALLENGE: Life is supposed to be challenging – and when we talk about challenges Weight Loss is right there at the top of the list. But we must remember it’s the challenge in life that makes you learn so much. And it’s the challenge that makes it so exciting. As you succeed with each challenge, you trust yourself to overcome future obstacles. You gain great advantages when you overcome your challenges – most of all discipline and control. [dt_sc_hr_invisible_small]
CAN YOU DO IT: You know deep down you can do this. You can do anything you want if you put your heart and soul into it. It takes a positive mindset, hard work and consistency and you will get to where you want to be. You have to learn to talk yourself into it and stop talking yourself out of it. Instead of looking for excuses to go off program you have to make all the excuses why you should stay on program. [dt_sc_hr_invisible_small]
WHY IT’S IMPORTANT TO STOP MAKING EXCUSES FOR YOURSELF: Aside from the fact that they are probably not true – more important is when you say them or when you think them, they are causing you to limit yourself. These excuses keep you going down the same old path, preventing you from reaching your goals. If you really want to lose weight, feel great and have control over your life and your happiness – then stop making excuses of why you can’t do it and just do it. [dt_sc_hr_invisible_small]
WHAT DOES IT TAKE: It takes following your menu – not eating in between meals and snacks – having the the discipline to want it more than just wishing for it and talking about it – it takes planning, preparing and following through with your day – it takes not making any excuses on why you should go off program. It takes consistent hard work – And most of all it takes you loving yourself enough to walk away from the temptations. You have to be willing to put your “immediate wants” aside for your “future results”. When you can do that you will see the very best results. [dt_sc_hr_invisible_small]
STOP BEING AFRAID AND START BEING EXCITED
~Love to Live Healthy with Josephine Fitzpatrick
As we travel through the last two weeks before the Holiday Break many of you are very much on your healthy weight loss path and others are still struggling a little to get to where you want to be. Wherever you are today and moving into this week I want you to be positive and confident about what you can achieve and why you want to do it. Don’t only focus on your number — instead focus on staying on program, having the control that makes you happy, and how much it all makes you feel good.
FOCUS: With so many holiday parties and gatherings before vacation if you are struggling focus on doing the very best you can because at the end of the day maintaining is better than gaining.
FOCUS: Even being on program between holiday parties is better than being off program all together. Just keep reminding yourself if you weren’t on program and weren’t watching and being mindful where would you be. That’s a scary thought for many. But knowing that you may not be doing your very best but doing the best you can right now is what matters and what will keep you from gaining — and sometimes that is enough.
What’s the point? — The holiday is in less than two weeks and I have so many parties in between what is the point of trying right now? The point is very simple you are either going to go in a happy positive place where you at the very least feeling de-bloated or a place that you feel out of control and very uncomfortable — choose your hard!
FOCUS: You can still lose a couple of pounds before you leave but even more important you will leave and start the holiday feeling lighter and in control over your day and that can really make the difference in how you feel, act and enjoy your holiday, vacation and everyone that loves you.
FOCUS: Don’t worry about where you weight is today — don’t even think about it. Just follow your program and you will feel better tomorrow. Whether you are leaving in one week or two — if you stay on program and keep moving forward everyday you will feel better and better. Whether you are staying home or going on vacation — feeling lighter and in control is where you want to be and how you want to feel.
The Journey — Something I think is important to share is how important your journey is. I know I say it all the time but it’s very easy to get caught up in feeling sorry for yourself and bad about the mistakes and choices you make. But the Innovation journey of weight loss is based around real life. That’s why we have a cheat day. So we don’t beat ourself up when we want to enjoy something we love. We have to remember we are not always going to be amazing every single second of every day. But what I want you to focus on is how happy you are on the journey to feeling your best. Every step you take in the direction of eating clean and losing weight is one more step to feeling great both mentally and physically. And while you are taking those steps — (slow or fast – turtle or shark) — keep the focus on all the happiness in your life —and start with the Happiness of the Holiday Season and being around those you love.
A Positive Mind Gives You A Positive Life
~Love to Live Healthy with Josephine Fitzpatrick
YOUR PATH TO SUCCESS: You need to fight for what you want and only when you fight and you don’t let anything in your way is when you will get it. AND ALWAYS remember you are sticking to your program and doing the right things because IT MAKES YOU FEEL GOOD, IT MAKES YOU HAPPY, AND IT MAKES YOU LOOK AMAZING. The consistency of being on program is what gets rid of cravings, it gets rid of the struggle and life becomes easier. Living “six” on and “one” off is what makes you feel good AND it makes you happy. Why fight it. Just do it! There is no excuse you can find around you and no food on the table that is better than feeling good, being in control being happy and looking great. Walk away from temptation and stay on your path. Because staying on your path is what will lead you to success both mentally and physically. Don’t make it harder than it is. Just follow your program and you will feel great.
IT WILL TAKE YOU TO GREAT PLACES
