Keto Diet Success Stories: Weight Loss With Keto (Page 11)

As of right now, I've lost 62 lbs while on Keto. I'm 6'6" and weighed 353 lbs when I started this journey on May 26th. I got to the point where I was tired of being the weight that I was at and ready to make a change in my life. Thankfully, some of my coworkers were in the same boat so we all pooled some money together & started a weight loss competition. The first month I lost 8.9% of my body weight. I lost to our winner by .2%. We kept at it each month and finally, last month I won ...

I have been following Ruled.me and love the website, meal ideas and tips. I even go back sometimes and re-read as a refresher. The longer you are on a "diet" I find you get lazy in a way and need to go back to the basics. I have been on a keto diet for over a year now and have had amazing progress. Just a little background for you, I have had issues with GERD (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease) since I was 16, over 10 years. Originally I was having trouble breathing when the acid went into my ...

Nine months ago, I was feeling pretty down. Couldn't keep up with the kids, the wife, the housework, anything. I was a heavy smoker for almost 20 years. So I finally decided to quit in late January 2015. But I didn't stop eating. Got up to 321 lbs...not good. Then had some changes in our life. Needed to feel better about myself. So a friend told me about the keto diet and Ruled.me. He had lost 67 lbs in 12 weeks. And it seemed so easy, for the most part. So I had one last stuffing breakfast ...

My name is Meagan. I’m a 24-year-old dental student living in Ohio. For as long as I can remember, I have always struggled with my weight. I was never the kind of girl that others would call “fat” but I was never proud of my body either. I grew up active, participating in ballet, and have had a fascination with food that has been hard to explain. I come from a family of obese people. Literally everyone older than me is overweight, so I think I was trying to avoid what I thought was my ...

Hi Craig! Yours was the first website I started with when I started looking into the Keto diet. It was easy to understand, and full of information, and tools. I downloaded the 14 day meal plan and took it with me when I went shopping. It didn't take long for me to get the gist of the diet, and I was blessed to not have the keto flu, and seemed to adjust pretty easily. So far this is the easiest diet I've been on. I started January 3, 2015, at 260lbs. I have slowed down a bit over the ...

Thomas wrote in to tell us that both him and his wife have lost over 70 lbs!  He started out with the 14 day meal plan, and then went on to lose close to 80lbs creating his own meal plans that use the recipes found on this site.  Great job Thomas!  We asked him a few questions to try and glean some tips and tricks to share with you. What is your favorite recipe from Ruled.me? This one is tough, we've only had maybe one or two recipes that we HAVEN'T liked. But to answer your question my wife ...

"Are you OK?  You don't look well." These are the words that began a change in my life style.  Like any normal guy, I wanted to say, "Yeah, I'm fine, no worries." This time was different. I didn't feel right, something was off.  The "normal guy" answer wouldn't work.  I've never felt so much pressure. Pressure on my chest.  Chest pains. I felt like someone was standing in my chest. "No, my chest feels heavy. I don't know why...its not really pain, but I feel weird." I asked mom not ...

You're so freaking heavy you outweigh my Chevy!" were daily chants as I boarded the school bus.  I'd become subject of the majority of the boys' fat jokes. "You have such a pretty face...you would be so beautiful if you just lost a few pounds," was repeated by so many of my well meaning family members. Three times per week I climbed on the scale in the nurse's office at my elementary school. I listened to all the benefits I could have if I just started making better food choices. The words ...

Rodney's son writes, "After losing his father much too young my father struggled with his weight and couldn't ever seem to find anything that effectively helped him lose the weight and keep it off. Then my dad found the KETO/LCHF diet in April of this year and it has changed both his life and my whole family's as well. As a father of 5, with an age range of 18 months to 23 years, it can be very hard to put yourself first and be dedicated. He gets up at 4:00 in the morning to get in his workouts ...

I wanted to share my story with keto, and using Ruled.Me as a resource. I've found Ruled.Me to be invaluable! It's one of my go to's for recipes because they're always solid. I don't have to worry that I'll get a questionable result. I've always enjoyed cooking and baking and wasn't sure which end was up when transitioning to a ketogenic diet.  There were so many unfamiliar ingredients and I found it overwhelming. I've watched hours, and hours, of America's Test Kitchen and Cook's Country.  Just ...
