    I've been doing keto 15 months to control migraines - it's magical for that!

    Husband and I started it back up last week. We did it for a few months last year and just got lazy and slipped off. But we loved how we felt, so we're back.

    I've been gaining weight slowly over the last year, about 35 pounds. I'd lost 60 pounds at one point, so this has been devastating. I tried so many things, but nothing worked. I had a kidney stone last week, and my doctor told me to lower my consumption of animal protein. I mostly ate meat and vegetables, and I rarely eat carbs, so that really only left fat. So, I did an internet search and found Keto. I started right before my birthday, Jan 12th, and I have lost 8 pounds! I do 2,000 calories, 80% fat, 15% protein and 5% carbs plus lots of water. My legs are less swollen when I get home from work, and I feel incredible. I track every macro and make sure not to fall below my calories, because that will lower your metabolism. I was floored. I got so used to nothing working, that I went into this expecting failure. Losing 8 pounds is nothing short of a miracle for me.

    Keto Connect and Wicked Stuffed both have meals we've enjoyed. We started out with the beef stew from Keto Connect and it is great. We just find and try things since I enjoy cooking and hubby enjoys eating. XD
