Keto Man in the House!

Greetings!
My name is Ty Travis. I am a nineteen-year old endurance athlete, EMT, and pre-nursing student. I’ve been in the Keto lifestyle since I was 16 (I am now 19).
Before I went Keto I had issues with my mood and suffered from hypoglycemia (I was diagnosed with pre-diabetes at the age of eight). I often had trouble focusing in school and had at least one glycemic event per week. My running was good, but it could of been better. I’ve decided to go Keto after seeing my mother benefit both mentally and physically from the diet, and ever since I’ve been living a even better life. My mood has gotten significantly better, my hypoglycemia is non-existent, and I’ve had many improvements to my endurance sports. Despite the somewhat-popular belief that fat makes you fat, my weight has remained unchanged. Since starting Keto at 16 I was 5'9 and 150 lbs. Now (age nineteen) I am... 5'9 and 150 lbs with 8% body fat.
I am hoping to obtain some knowledge on how to improve my current diet, maybe get a few ideas for a recipe or two. I look forward to getting to interact with you all! I wish you a wonderful day.
