Fast Like a Girl
A personalized eating and fasting program designed for every phase of a woman's life — whether you're cycling, in perimenopause, or navigating menopause. Guided by Leslie, certified in Dr. Mindy Pelz's proven protocol.
It's Not Just About Fasting — It's About Eating Too
Are you among the many women who feel unheard and unseen by their doctors and health professionals? Have you become exhausted by the promise of quick-fix diets that only leave you disappointed?
Fast Like a Girl isn't just a fasting program — it's about understanding when to eat and when to fast based on where you are in life. Whether you're a cycling woman, entering perimenopause, or in menopause, your body has different needs at different times. This program teaches you how to honour both the eating periods and the fasting periods for your specific phase of life.
Created by Dr. Mindy Pelz, a best-selling author and women's health expert, this method gives you proven strategies, specific protocols, and practical tools to thrive — no matter what stage of life you're in.
For Every Phase of a Woman's Life
Your body changes throughout your life, and your approach to eating and fasting should change with it. This program meets you exactly where you are — with strategies tailored to your hormones, your symptoms, and your goals.
Cycling Women
Learn to align your eating and fasting windows with your menstrual cycle. Each phase of your cycle calls for different foods, different fasting lengths, and different types of movement. When you eat and fast in rhythm with your hormones, everything changes.
Perimenopause
Your hormones are shifting, and what worked before may not work now. This program gives you specific eating and fasting strategies designed for the unpredictability of perimenopause — helping you manage weight, mood, energy, and sleep during this transition.
Menopause & Beyond
Without a monthly cycle to guide you, you need a different approach to eating and fasting. Leslie will help you build a sustainable protocol that supports your post-menopausal body — protecting bone density, managing inflammation, and keeping your metabolism strong.
Eating & Fasting Around Your Cycle
For cycling women, the key is knowing when to eat more and when to fast. The first half of your cycle is the "Doing Phase" — you'll feel motivated to set goals and can handle longer fasting windows. The second half is the "Recovery Phase" — time to nourish with a wider variety of foods and switch to gentler movement.
Power Phase (Days 1–10)
Oestrogen is low, making this the ideal time for intermittent fasting and time-restricted eating. Your body is cortisol-forgiving, so you can push harder with exercise and longer fasting windows (13–72 hours).
Manifestation Phase (Days 11–15)
All three hormones — oestrogen, testosterone, and progesterone — are present. You'll feel motivated and productive. Focus on whole foods, leafy greens, and supporting your liver to break down hormones effectively.
Second Power Phase (Days 16–19)
Hormones dip again, creating another window for low-carb eating and fasting. This phase supports your body's natural cycles of repair and rejuvenation.
Nurture Phase (Days 20–28)
Your body needs more glucose to produce progesterone. This is the time to nourish with smart carbs, gentle exercise like yoga, and avoid fasting — honouring what your body truly needs.
In perimenopause or menopause? Leslie has specific eating and fasting protocols tailored for you too.
