"Hi Dr. Berg, My name is Jackie Albrecht, I am from Melbourne, Australia. July 19th will mark my 10-month KETOVERSARY. I would like to thank you for your videos, and knowledge as it was my partner who first stumbled across your YouTube videos, and told me that I would be interested in starting Keto - as its foods that I would like. My History: At my heaviest, I was hovering around 120kgs/264lbs. I had injured my knee - by simply slipping in the shower. I lived on Ibuprofen for 12 months daily, and nothing fixed the pain. I had seen your videos about ACV and its benefits, and even though I gave ACV to my pets in their water and to repel fleas - I never once thought about taking care of myself. After having my son, I stopped caring for myself - So I would eat on the go, stop at fast-food restaurants on my travels and have chocolate with coffee before id leaves for work. Really, an unhealthy lifestyle. Getting back to my knee, I didn't realize the impact it played on my mental health. I wouldn't engage in physical activities with my son, I made excuses for why I wouldnt participate in fun things. It got to a point where I didn't recognize the person I was. I was always in pain, and if it wasnt my leg - it was my shoulder, migraines, back pain - you name it. It was always something. Depression was hovering above, and I then refused to engage in functions and catching up with friends, as I had severe anxiety on how big I had got. I knew at my lowest point, I needed a change. I wanted to be the person I always was, and my son deserved to know the 'old me'. So thats when I started watching your videos. Fast forward 10 months, I only knew one friend who I rarely see, tell me thats what she did, when i decided to start. I wasnt on social media, so I had no clue how HUGE the Keto Community is. I can tell you, when I started Keto, my Blood Glucose was 10.9. Now its in the normal range. The fear of Diabetes, Dementia, chronic Pain had put so much fear in me, that I am determined for change. I have lost 30.3kgs/67lbs, and I am still going.... I love the keto lifestyle, i have inspired friends and family to adopt this healthy way of life. So I want to say thank you for your constant guidance, and knowledge. We need more people like you spreading good words!"
