Now being on Keto I lost 42 pound and that is 2.5 pounds a week from which I started.
By: Tammy H.
I have been on Keto for 31/2 months. I am obese and always crave sugar foods. I was pre-diabetic, I had my thyroid taken out 15 yrs ago. I had a gallbladder around the same time. I am mad at Drs because they said both needed to come out when my conditions could have been reversed. I have been on several diets and taken everything under the moon. I have lost and gained it all back and always felt hungry and exercised like crazy. I still hurt with inflammation and had always desired ice cream and donuts and all the stuff I could not have. Now being on Keto I lost 42 pounds and that is 2.5 pounds a week from which I started. I miss real ice cream, donuts snacks, and all the stuff I can’t have, but......! I do not crave them and it is so much easier to stay away. I make my own ice cream and all my deserts. I do not eat these things often because eating a lot of almond flour can cause my weight lost very slow, but I get to enjoy as I lost and not crave and just enjoy. I have not done any workouts. It has slowed me down because of no gallbladder and no thyroid. I have learned I do have to take gallbladder pills to help me poop or it will be days before I go. I also take my thyroid med, or I will hold fluids. After my research, I do better on IF and more on one meal a day because of no thyroid or gallbladder. I have been following my body type and I have Dr. Berg's book that has to help me understand my body type and use it to help me. Please don’t just do this diet without doing your research, cooking, and keeping strong. I was wearing a tight size 3x going into a 4x to a confident 1x. I had psoriasis in the back of my head and around my ears, and it’s all gone. Inflammation all gone, swelling all gone, pre-diabetic all gone, off high blood pressure meds, off Staten, off metformin, off all meds. I got sick with food poisoning and lost a lot of potassium. I started having leg cramps and started taking his electrolytes and all my cramps went away in two days and it was no time I got my energy back. This will be a lifetime change. I do have 100 pounds to go because I was morbidly obese. Here are a few pics.
