Episode 123 Charlie Cifarelli A catch up with Charlie who was on Episode 7 of the podcast. He is now approaching 1000 consecutive clean fasts.

Charlie Cifarelli is a businessman from Long Island, New York. After rising through the ranks in several maximum-security prisons in Nebraska, he tapped into his entrepreneurial spirit starting his own business and also becoming the co-founder of a non-profit organization also a board member of a first responders non -profit. Charlie speaks at various business and social awareness functions, and has been featured in newspaper, magazine, radio, podcasts, and TV. The Dad to world famous Star the Dog.

From his earliest childhood memories, Charlie always wanted to eat and drink more. A fast metabolism and active lifestyle kept the weight off, but by his twenties found himself in the obese category. Charlie lifted weights and did cardio to outrun the compulsive eating, but without success. He tried a 12-step program to get a hold of his food obsession but still found the desire to eat far outweighed the desire to be healthy physically fit. At the age of 55, Charlie used a great deal of his life struggling with food. He found an Intermittent Fasting group on Facebook and immediately joined. He started this new journey and felt better almost immediately. There were stumbles on his first try, but he re-committed and chose to live a healthy lifestyle.

Charlie is now approaching 1,000 consecutive fasts and maintains a minimum daily fast of 20 hours, and will often average 22-23 hours for reflection & clarity. Like anything, the IF lifestyle will work for you if you put the time in. Slow and steady wins.
