Since launching the new Zero Plus earlier this month, the team has been heads-down making enhancements based on your feedback, as well as working on things we couldn’t squeeze into our initial launch timeline. You’ve told us what you like, but just as importantly, we’ve heard what you’d like to see improved – particularly from…
You know fasting works. It’s simple, it’s effective, and it has the science to back it up. But when it comes to the fueling part of the equation, that’s where things start to feel complicated. We’ve heard this feedback for years: “I’m nailing fasting. It’s the eating part I’m struggling with.” In response, we’ve built…
Scale: friend or foe? I’ve experienced both. I’ve been weighing myself lately. And I’m coming to terms with the idea that, through thick and thin (har har), it’s a healthy habit all by itself. When things are going smoothly — I’m eating right, fasting overnight and through the morning, and getting moving every day — I…
I’ve been feeling anxious. It’s not clinical anxiety or anxiety attacks (and I really feel for people who struggle with those), but the nonspecific sort of fear and dread that come on, with seemingly no trigger, in the middle of lunch or while taking a shower. I’ve had these bouts several times in my life,…
These first few weeks of fatherhood have been, in a word, stressful. Admittedly my situation is not unique. Every new parent has had that “oh sh*t” realization that there’s this brand new human you’re responsible for keeping alive, and you’re somehow supposed to know what to do despite never having done this before. Add in…
When I first started fasting, I’m not sure I would have even named it “fasting.” I cut out snacks after dinner and delayed or skipped breakfast, but I wasn’t especially regimented about it, nor did I do any overt tracking. With time and repetition, I saw success: I lost weight. However, I didn’t lose all…
I really, really love donuts — to an unhealthy degree. Some might even call my relationship to donuts addict-like. Time and again, I’ll go months or even years without eating a donut, but when suddenly donuts happen to be available, I’ll have one. This, of course, should be a meaningless event; eating one donut is…
There are a lot of “new year, new you” sentiments flying around right now, and I get it. I’ve spent many a January 1 resolving to transform myself in ways I am convinced will make me happier, more successful, and just better. Yet most of my major life changes have occurred when I stumbled upon…
Ozempic: It’s the drug everyone can’t stop talking about. And since Zero is already delivering on the promise drugs like Ozempic are making — helping millions of people lose weight and gain health — I wanted to share my take. If you haven’t yet heard of Ozempic, otherwise known as a “GLP-1 receptor agonist,” here’s the…
I got sick recently, to the point where I took a day off work purely to sleep. This, of course, put me behind on everything, this email included. What it didn’t do was interrupt my 16:8 fasting habit. I don’t share this to pat myself on the back. It wasn’t a struggle to maintain my…
