So excited! This author was one of the first I read when learning about Intermittent Fasting. I love her style of writing and can relate to her on so many levels.
Her first book “The What When Wine Diet” was about what to eat, when to eat it and added wine!!!! So you can see why I was so interested. I listened to it on audible and even though I was interested in IF, I wasn’t ready to commit.
This summer, I did a weight loss challenge with my friends and some of us started counting macros. In the midst of our frustration that the weight was slow to come off I mentioned the WWW diet.
This started my 2nd round in my interest of Intermittent Fasting. Could it be the miracle of fat loss?? I found Melanie on her podcast with Gin Stephens and binged listened to all of them. Then I YouTubed every video to get even more info!
The first version of this book is what got me started and now I’m devouring every page of the new version on WHAT WHEN WINE! Ready to pick Melanie’s brain! I’m
Amazed at her knowledge and love her personality!!
So happy she updated her book. Her podcast and book have been a huge part of my journey!

Melanie’s book is a game changer for anyone looking to improve their health and well-being. I have read so many books by all of the paleo and keto gurus and this one is by far my favourite. While reading her book, I felt like I was listening to a friend. She has a very personable, very funny and relatable writing style. She says in her intro to avoid being tempted to read just bits and pieces of it, as there is a ton of amazing info on every page. I was tempted to skim through it, as I am a veteran intermittent faster and eat keto and thought I already knew #allthethings. But I read every word and she was right, her book is full of info that will help anyone make the best choices. Melanie isn’t preachy or dogmatic. She lays out info and respects that we all do what we feel is best for our bodies. I have had digestive issues since 2013 that started when I was eating a vegan diet and training for a marathon. I entered into a hormonal nightmare, which I’ve spent the last 5 years healing from. Intermittent fasting and a paleo lifestyle is the most healthy and free I have felt in a long time. And she has a section on wine! Need I say more? Her book is so thoroughly researched, she jokes about a tome-size reference section. She brings the science of fasting and paleo to a level that isn’t condescending nor is it over your head. Her section on dealing with the social aspects of paleo IF is a must read for everyone. She also offers many different IF options with the pros and cons to help you choose what may work best for you. Melanie’s book is #allthethings and I encourage anyone interested in health, longevity, anti-aging and healthy body composition to read it ASAP over a glass of wine (it it’s that time).

Really loved reading this book! It took me 2 days to read it. Melanie writes so well and so thoughtfully that I felt like I was talking with a close friend through the entire book. I haven't adopted the Paleo lifestyle (yet!) but I have with Intermittent Fasting the past 5 months and this was a great read about it. I learned so many new things that I hadn't before. I am excited to try all of her delicious recipes in the back of the book and maybe incorporate a more Paleo way of eating into my life with her encouragement and research. Way to go Melanie! I really enjoyed your book and looking forward to more books from you in the future.

I first found Melanie through her previous version of this book and LOVED the thorough research she has done to back up this way of eating. I have been following an intermittent fasting approach (the correct way - learned from Melanie) and have seen vast improvements in an autoimmune condition I have been dealing with as well as having the benefits of my hormones becoming regulated.

The best thing of all is that I have found this way of eating so easy to fit into my life. I truly feel like I can eat this way for the rest of my life. I have not mastered the paleo aspect yet but working on it and definitely practicing a more whole foods approach. Plus - wine! How could you not love this plan!

FANTASTIC BOOK -- BEST THING I'VE READ ON PALEO AND IM

I LOVED this book! I've been doing Paleo for several years and for the last 12 months started intermittent fasting. I've read some articles in the past but never really understood the reasons for either. This book is absolutely fantastic. While it goes into incredible details, Melanie also keeps the explanations simple and easy to follow. She's a storyteller and the book is so much fun to read. On top of it all, Melanie doesn't just provide theory, she gives that actual practical advise of how to implement Paleo & IM (including wine of course) AND even provides tons of recipes for meals and desserts too! I almost never write book reviews on Amazon but i was so impressed with this book i felt compelled to share my thoughts.
