Hi, my name is Rory and I'm 24.
I remember being here in 2015, and was a militant ketoer, I would drive my mom crazy with the common question "Is that keto?", While she learnt to cater to my needs I amazed everyone by dropping to 14 stone, a first for me ever. My baby chubby teenage face melted off to reveal a handsome man. I always, and still do see my self as that shy tubby teenager, well... That changed untill I had a fresh perspective in my life, my girlfriend.
She managed to help me see who I am, and what I can be. I always tell her "Oh man, you should of seem keto me, I almost made it" and she would always say, well... Why can't you go back? The groan in my stomach from all that bacon and eggs hit like a bad cringy though from my youth, and always opted for different diets, but none worked like keto.
So, I thought, I haven't really gained any weight lately, if managing to maintain my weight now then I could if I lost it all, so I'm fully committed to it this time.
