Hello everyone! I am 41/F and my starting weight was 288 in November, 2016. After having two kids back to back and then going through the stress of grad school, I really packed on a lot of weight. I decided to go keto and also use intermittent fasting to try and lose the weight. I have lost 112 pounds in 10 months. I am 5'10", and my goal weight is 165 so I am almost there. I wanted to post to encourage all the other ladies over 40 that it can be done!

Thanks everyone! I really appreciate it. Keto is basically low carb, but I avoid all the processed stuff like wraps, bars and baked goods. I just keep it simple. I also use intermittent fasting which has given me incredible results.0

Haha thanks! You really can't beat the full length mirror and lighting in a work bathroom. I take pics every so often to remind myself of my progress because I still have trouble seeing it in the mirror.1
