Learning that Insulin directly affects weight gain and that Net Carbs over 20-30g/day keeps a constant flow of insulin in my blood, preventing weight loss was a TOTAL game changer. Removing carbs immediately killed the cravings, first time in my life - 47 years. I have adopted and will follow a Keto WOE (way of eating) always.

Knowing that High Fat foods, such as dairy, have almost no carbs, vs. their Low-Fat Counterparts (evil deception since they have way more carbs and turn on the insulin flow) has allowed me to have whipping cream in my coffee, hunks of Gruyere cheese (not the dice size portion I was once led to believe was the most allowed in a sitting) with not only no guilt, but the blessed SATIATION that fat provides. I am free from the chains of Sugar. This last year I was almost ready to give up, throw in the towel and just accept being huge. As much as I hated myself and went to bed every day full of guilt and disappointment, I really thought there was nothing that could prevent me from buying Ben & Jerry's. I realized this week that all last year, I would wake up and think, "man am I still exhausted, ugh, another full day of work and blah, for what?" Then I would suddenly remember "Hey!! I get to go to Starbucks and have my Latte, and Bacon Gouda Sandwich, Oat Bar, etc...." and it was like a light went off. My happiness and motivation were 100% related to the "drug" being pumped back into my blood, I was addicted to Sugar/Carbs. I am now SO even-keeled. I wake up happy because I know my body is healing. My emotions are stable, I am not sad or elated, I just am. It is a blessing to be in an "even" state.

Dr. Eric Berg and Dr. Jason Fung YouTube Videos changed my life. They are short, smart, motivational and interesting. I know I have a long way to go, but this last 2 months and 30lbs has literally been the most mentally free, easy, peaceful, effortless attempt at losing weight I have ever experienced. So far up to this point I have engaged in zero exercise. I do plan on becoming more active when additional weight is lost. I am particularly interested in resistance training and toning. I wish you all the ease and peace I have found and thank-you for all being here allowing me to share an experience that many others can't relate to or are sick of talking about.

Today's lunch is an example of a simple, perfect Keto meal - High Fat, Low Carb and moderate Protein (anything over 30-40g/meal will stimulate insulin also). It is both delicious and filling/satiating.
