Long weekend

Sep 06, 2021

I have combined keto and intermittent fasting for 6 or 7 weeks now. 

What I have noticed... more energy, not hungry, weight is getting closer to my goal (clinic goal was 190, mine is 165- currently 173) I am happier, (a few recent life events helped with that) I don't crave the old comfort foods I used to(even after 9.5yrs RNY) I feel full again on the small portions, I am HAPPY!!!

Would I recommend keto and IF? SURE would!! Is it for everyone ... heck no... I tossed the idea around, researched the heck out of it, slowly integrated fasting and on occasion go 20hrs maybe once a week. On average 17 hrs.

I know our bodies are no longer the same as the general population,  so I took it slow. Built up over a week or so from 10hr to 17hr fast. 

As the cooler weather approaches, I look forward to crisp fall morning walks, bouncing on my trampoline and seeing what each day will hold for me. 

I am learning self care, pampering myself, learning to be gentle on my personal criticisms, and loving myself for who I was, who I am and who I will become.
