Keto - have you tired it?
Watch this postI lost 16 kilo 2 ½ stone in 10 weeks, never feel hungry the whole thing has been very easy to do.
I no longer want to eat the sort of foods I used to, and am very happy with my tweaked keto diet.
As a bonus my blood pressure has gone from 190/95 to a brilliant 118/79 so win double I have a lot more energy and feel great.
I used to get out of breath walking to the end of the garden I now briskly walk 4 miles every day weather permitting.
Keto has completely changed my life. Anyone want more details I would be very happy to give a more in depth account on how I did it.
And no this is not a scam, I'm not selling anything and my story is completely free if anyone is interested.

Overeating has nothing to do with greed its an addiction to sugars/carbs once the carbs are out of your system you often skip meals completely without even noticing.
Its very much like nicotine addiction, I used to smoke 30 a day and tried for many years to quit had all the black moods and bad tempers when I finally quit some 10 years ago I couldn't believe how easy it was.
Cigarettes and carbs have a lot in common its the last lot you had that makes you hungry for the next dose, once in Ketosis and the carbs are out of your body you no longer want carbs/sugars.
I lost 25 kilo mainly in the first few months of starting keto and once in keto (takes about 4 days) never once felt hungry.
Once I was properly in ketosis I went from 3000 calories a day to 800 a day and it was easy, that's why you lose vast amounts of weight very fast.
Obviously 800 calories a day cant be sustained for too long and I now stick to around1500-2000 calories a day.
I never experienced any noticeable muscle loss in fact I have increased my muscle bulk because I find it much easier to exercise with out the extra 25 kilo to carry around (brisk 4 mile walk most days) also keeping up protein levels is very important for muscle retention.
The strange thing is although I don't consciously follow keto now I still don't eat a lot of carbs, keto has changed my relationship with food for ever, for the better.
I sometimes put on a couple of kilo but it doesn't bother me because I now know how easily and painlessly I can loos it again.
This diet has been a stunning success for me, I really cant see how anyone could possible not lose weight quickly on this diet.
I would think being hungry is the main cause of failure on most diets with Keto you should never feel hungry so no problem sticking to it.
It all seemed a little complicated to begin with but after a little thought I worked out some easy tricks and tweaks that made things very simple.
I really am so glad I tried this it has completely changed my life.
Well after a checks, a camera in the heart and it was found clear, a barrage of tests the answers came. I had sleep apnoea due to being obese and had stopped breathing in my sleep, I was born with an aorta only half the size it should be therefore after stopping breathing the heart started pumping faster and faster to try to get oxygen around the body hence mimicking an angina attack - I was pre diabetic because I am intolerant of carbs. My body stores carbs instead of breaking them down. I was told to go onto a low carb diet for life.
Six months later and 25 kgs lighter I had a new wardrobe as I was size 18 and now size 10. I am still in UK size 10 six years later. When I go out for a meal I ask for just salad and meat or meat and veg no problems. Never been hungry and my bad cholesterol remains low and good high. Have normal sugar readings now so all well. 🙂

Personally I think the advice we have been given for the last 50 years hasn't worked, obesity, heart disease and diabetes have all rocketed since we have been told less fat more carbs.
