Episode #215

In this episode, Megan chats with Coach Jill McMurrey about her journey from weight-loss surgery to true metabolic healing—and the role fasting played in transforming her health.

Jill shares her experience with gastric band surgery, how it helped her shed pounds initially, but failed to address the deeper metabolic dysfunction beneath the surface. After adopting a ketogenic diet, Jill discovered fasting as a game-changing tool to support her long-term health and weight loss.

Together, Megan and Jill explore:
– Why weight-loss surgery isn’t a complete solution
– How fasting can support metabolic recovery post-surgery
– The mindset shifts and strategies needed for lasting success
– The launch of The Fasting Method’s Accountability Coaching Program—and how it helps clients stay consistent, motivated, and supported

💡 From client to COO and TFM Accountability Coach, Jill’s story is proof that real change happens when you combine the right tools with meaningful support.

👉 Take the first step! Book your free 15-minute intake assessment with Coach Jill to explore how accountability coaching can work for you.
