In reply to David Richardson. I decided to stop saying “I can’t have this or that food.” Instead I say I choose not to eat foods or dishes that do not support my best health. People don’t argue or harass me neatly as much now.

Great read, thank you for sharing
Reinforced to me that what I am doing is right for me, even though I can’t pin it down to keto, low-carb, or carnivore- a mix.
I’m losing (100 lbs in one year!) without extra ketone supplements, just my vitamin regime and collagen supplements…
I appreciate your recipes, you are a go-to for me and for many…
God Bless!

Hi I follow all your recipes here in Washington England. I’ve done keto before but when it was misunderstood like atkins lost the weight and put it back on. To date this year I’ve lost approx 42 lbs starting at 214 lbs in around 12-14 weeks . The hardest thing is eating out especially with freinds and then always having to poi t out all that you Cannot eat and how sorry they seem to think it is that I can’t have fries bread pasta etc. I have been helped by your very encouraging efforts in literally stopping eating any refined sugar and use all the replacements for cooking and I now don’t need the need to even put say stevia sugar in my tea I simply don’t get the urge to need a sweet cuppa or even sofa drink that mimic ls the taste of sugar like Pepsi max I find it repulsive to taste now I’m truly weaned off the need to have sugar it’s like a drug we are introduced to as a child. Now I’m about 4 to 7 lbs off my ideal weight for my hight I will like a happy keto life as is my wife. Your help has been invaluable and not a day goes by when I’m not in the kitchen playing one of you videos or following a recipe.
Thanks for the help much love to you and your family.

Thank you for your honesty in your journey. You are beautiful and healthy. I love your recipes and have followed low carb for 6 years now. We all have ups and downs but I ultimately return to this lifestyle every time.

In reply to Rach. I haven't had sleep issues but I do know many women who have taken my 6 week sugar detox course who had to adjust their carbs to having more at dinner and less through out the day and that helped them sleep better.

I used to be successful on low carb/Keto diet with intermittent fasting but it started to really negatively affect my sleep so I’m scared to go back now while my weight continues to increase 😥. I have insulin resistance and also hashimotos hypothyroid

Did you observe any issues with sleep and how to modify the diet to deal with it?
Thanks!

Thank you for being honest. Much braver than most women! I started Keto in February and am down 30lbs so far. I’ve been stuck for about six weeks so will read your specific article that deals with that. I’m still learning. Just one difficulty for me following you from the UK is that we don’t measure in ‘cups’ so sometimes it’s a bit of a guessing game with recipes. Y Ouse been incredibly helpful. Thank you.

Thank you so much as you have helped me a lot. I have a problem with my blood sugar dropping even though I’m not diabetic. Therefore I have to watch carbs and I do not eat sugary items. I am also am on thyroid medication.
