RE: The Keto Chronicals - How I Dropped 15.4 Pounds (246.4 ounces) in 4 Weeks...
Go Raj!! Congratulations!
I've read that one should stay on Keto only a short time. Maybe the 12-, 14- or 16-hour fast would work. It's the only way I finally shed 15 pounds in four months. I've gained back 3 but we won't speak of that. To lose the next ten pounds, I will have to give up corn tortilla chips, popcorn, sugar... and step up the exercise program. If you keep away from dairy and grains, you'll probably conquer all your health issues. Keep us posted. :)
Hi Carol, thanks for congrat :)
I'm glad to hear you've shed some unwanted pounds and are eating more healthy. It really does make a difference.
To be honest, all the usual advice goes out of the window when you have a chronic illness that no doctors, or even specialists, can help you with... you just have to try and help yourself. although this diet is extreme - extreme problems demand extreme solutions.
I've already tried pretty much every fast, including a 5 day water fast which was hardcore. My bloating went away, but the minute I started to eat again it came back. I've already given up sugar, caffeine and alcohol when I took up this keto diet, and I'm committed to sticking to it (and the no sugar/caffeine/alcohol thing) until the end of June unless I exhibit symptoms of kidney problems which is the only serious side effect thing keto can possibly cause.
If you're interested in the levels of research, and thought I've put into this my first post is the one to read:
