Day 253 - Keto, two years on https://golifelog.com/posts/keto-two-years-on-1631240576181
I started on the ketogenic diet on 10 Sep 2019. It’s been two years.
To the uninitiated, the keto diet is form of low carb, high fat diet. We’re eating too much sugars and carbs in our modern diets, and that’s leading to a whole host of metabolic conditions like diabetes, inflammation, and obesity. Keto aims to counter that, by drastically reducing our carb intake, and training our metabolically flexible body to burning more fats.
I started on keto as a last ditch effort to heal from a series of chronic gut issues, which included surgery. And two years on, I never felt better.
Some stuff I learned along the way:
• Weight comes and goes, and comes back again
• Trust your body
• Your way of eating will evolve
• Keto is a revolutionary act
I only pray this will gain wider acceptance over time.
