At the beginning of Jan. 2022, I weighed 263 pounds, which was the heaviest I’ve ever been. I’m 27 and I’ve always been between 230 and 240. This weight really crept up on me. I started watching and listening to Dr. Berg months prior because of intermittent fasting but never committed to anything. I don’t really eat too unhealthy but, I definitely eat my fair share of carbs and sugary drinks.

On Jan. 20, 2022, I started Keto and IF. I didn’t do any “build up” to it, I just did it. I went straight into 18:6 and shortly after, went to 20:4 after watching more Dr. Berg videos on the benefits of fasting. As of Mar. 10, I got down to 223. That’s 40 pounds in less than 3 months! It definitely wasn’t easy and takes a lot of discipline. The best advice I can give is to just set a goal and stick to it no matter what.
