WEIGHT LOSS: 30 LBS DOWN✨
how did it do it?
✨diet: keto (high fat, low carb + sugar)
the keto diet has changed my life immensely! within the first month of my weight-loss journey i lost 20 lbs. without any exercise by just following the keto diet! also make sure to stay hydrated by drinking at least 4 bottles of water a day!
✨exercise: walks + gym
like mentioned before, i did not do much physical activity in the beginning of this journey. but as time passed, i knew it was time to get moving. 5 days out of 7 i focus on 2 goals: going to the gym for 1-2 hrs & walking 10k steps!
my recommendation for those starting this journey is focus on walking first then add in whatever you feel is best for you, you don’t necessarily need the gym!
✨mentality: keep it positive
i had a real bad habit of binge-eating. due to that and going through the struggles of grief, stress, etc. i gained 60+ lbs. what people don’t realize is that everything starts with your mentality! trust in yourself and let go of what you/others think. do this for you. there are tons of ups and downs but, you will see progress as weeks pass.
✨don’t give up: you got this!
as someone who could never sustain a diet or healthier lifestyle, it’s tough! letting go of bad habits and building better ones doesn’t come easy. my advise to you is simply don’t give up and remember this: in 2 weeks you’ll feel it, in 4 weeks, you’ll see it, and in 8 weeks, you’ll hear it!

Losing weight can be challenging, but understanding the right approach makes a significant difference. The keto diet, which emphasizes high fat and low carbohydrate intake, triggers ketosis in the body, leading to accelerated fat loss. As you explore this diet, remember to stay hydrated—aim for at least eight glasses of water daily as it aids digestion and overall health. Incorporating exercise into your routine is equally essential. Walking is a fantastic starting point for beginners, gradually building up intensity through gym workouts. Create a balanced schedule that includes both activities, aiming for a minimum of 10,000 steps daily. This not only enhances physical fitness but also boosts mental health by releasing endorphins. A positive mindset is crucial in your weight loss journey. Self-motivation can combat cravings and slip-ups; remember, it's about progress, not perfection. Set realistic goals and track your achievements, no matter how small. Engage with a supportive community to share experiences and stay accountable. Do not hesitate to seek help when needed, and remind yourself that setbacks are part of the process. Embrace the journey, and keep pushing forward!
I’m going to look into keto. I hear about it, but never took the time to research its benefits, or what to do. Thanks for sharing!!!❤️❤️❤️
