I started doing Keto diet after hearing Joe Rogan talking about on his podcast. So I did some research on how to go about learning the Keto way of eating. It was a very easy way of eating and very satisfying for me. It has worked amazingly and been the best thing I have ever done. I have tried so many other diets with no success but Keto was this amazing method to change my life around. I started October 6 2015 I was 610 pounds. I am now 251 pounds. 1. What tactics did you employ ...

After nearly 4 years clean from drugs and alcohol, I had switched addictions to food and put on around 200 lbs. In the end, I weighed just north of 400 pounds and was facing bariatric surgery, when I had this sort of breakthrough epiphany (after a dark moment of suicidal depression, and a few weeks later this chance encounter with a beautiful female friend from high school) where I realized that I was in control of my life; I was the one who got myself into this situation, and therefore could be ...

On February 1st, I will be exactly one year into my Keto way of life. In that time, I have lost 83 lbs. although that is something to celebrate by itself, I also accomplished other things. I was a type 2 diabetic when I started this journey and now have completely been able to give up my Metformin as well as my twice daily insulin shots. I have also gone off my blood pressure meds as well as my statins and antidepressant. I have gone from absolutely no energy to days filled with everything ...

I am 60 years old and I have been overweight all of my adult life. I have tried a lot of the same things that most folks try to lose weight and ended up in a vicious circle of dieting. Eventually, I was morbidly obese at about 380 pounds (6'2" tall). In early 2016 I was at about 355 pounds and fell hard in our living room in the middle of the night and had to crawl on bad knees to the couch so I could get up. That was the last straw and I told my wife in the morning that I was going to lose ...

Down 80 lbs since discovering keto and ruled.me. Keto helped me go from a life of being obese to finally hitting the “normal” category for weight. I literally am the weight I was in 5th grade. FIFTH! I’ve been overweight my entire life! Not only have I lost the weight, but I have found huge relief from joint issues and burning pain that used to be my morning norm. No longer! I was able to sustain a lower-carb diet all through my last and final pregnancy and it was the easiest pregnancy ...

In September 2017 I weighed 242 pounds, and I was very unhealthy, depressed, and emotionally miserable. I had tried and failed to lose weight many times - every attempt left me hungry and exhausted, so I always gave up. I stumbled across the ketogenic diet and decided that I could either stay miserable or give it a try and even if it failed I was already as unhappy as I could possibly be. To my absolute surprise, keto changed my life in every way possible. It was sustainable, energizing, and ...

I have had great success not only in weight loss but in many other facets of my health and wellness. I have been on a strictly ketogenic diet since July 2018. I avoid all grains, sugars, starches, and stay under 20g TOTAL carbs per day. In that time, I have lost 75lbs! ( yeah!!) Also, a chronic hives condition no doctor Could figure out...(2 years with horrible hives) is gone. I haven’t had Asthma now for a year (after 15 years with it bad), I was on blood pressure meds for 5 years, and now ...

I’ve always been the fat kid and have struggled with my weight my entire life. It wasn't until I started to get really serious with Crossfit and a lower-carbohydrate existence that I started to actually transform not just my body, but my mindset as well. I remember in 2007, I stepped on the scale at over 260lbs. I remember talking with my wife about joining some cardio-kickboxing class that was going to cost FOUR HUNDRED DOLLARS for 10 weeks (that seemed like a lot to pre-Crossfit me?). I did ...

Two years ago my legs looked and felt like they would pop with the prick of a pin. I could not have my socks pulled up without leaving a large indent in my calf that would last for hours. Needless to say, it was uncomfortable and something needed to change. I had tried to make changes in the past with some success, but I always fell back into my old habits. If first you don't succeed try try again. And I did, but this time I used my failures as motivation, telling myself that I can accomplish ...

In May of 2014 I was 33 years old and 271 lbs. The largest I have ever been in my life. At this point, I did not have any noticeable health problems. I just hated being fat. I wanted to lose weight because I wanted to like the way I looked. A co-worker of mine told me about a book called Carb Nite. This booked outlined an ultra low carb diet followed by one "Carb Night" each week. I gave this a try for close to a year and got down to 215 lbs eating this way and working out. Fast forward a ...
