In this episode, Lizzie sits down with Reggie Mckiver after he completed a 40 day water fast and lost 47 pounds. But this conversation is not about weight loss alone. It’s about what surfaced when food was removed. During the fast, anger resurfaced. Generational trauma surfaced. Fear surfaced. And something unexpected happened. Every time deep emotional release occurred, the scale moved. This episode explores the connection between weight loss resistance and unresolved emotional patterns. It challenges the idea that fat loss is purely physical and asks a deeper question. What if fat is protecting something? If you are struggling with weight loss resistance, fear of food, chronic under-eating, or feeling stuck despite doing everything “right,” this episode will expand your perspective. In this episode, you’ll discover: What a 40 day water fast revealed about trauma and fat storage How anger and suppressed emotion can affect weight loss Why fat may hold stored stress and memory The link between generational trauma and physical health Why the scale stalled during emotional suppression How emotional release influenced fat loss Why chronic under-eating damages metabolism How increasing calories improved sleep and strength The difference between weight loss and healing Why transformation requires internal work We talk about: 00:00 Intro 02:00 Why Reggie chose a 40 day water fast 05:00 Weight loss versus emotional transformation 07:30 Facing anger during fasting 09:45 The day 38 breakthrough 12:30 Fat holding trauma and stored memory 15:00 Emotional release and sudden weight drops 18:15 Pride, fear, and physical pain patterns 24:00 Suppressed voice and emotional health 26:30 Fear of food and chronic under-eating 29:00 Eating 3…","meta_description":"What actually happens during a 40 day water fast?
