Weight lost…. It’s always a big topic especially for women. The keto diet is known for its causing people to loose weight at a rapid speed. 

The keto diet is very confusing. If I’m not eating any carbs they why wouldn’t I loose weight? But at the same time you’re eating a lot of fat. The first few months of me being keto I was losing weight very fast. The first week I started keto I lost 7lbs. But after a few months I was stalled out. I couldn’t figure out why.

Until I realized I was still going to Red Robin once a week to eat bottomless zucchini fries, and snacking on different keto treats that had all these hidden sugars in them to make you stall out. I was still eating junk food just keto junk food. 

I like to think there are two different types of people who are keto. There are the ones who eat all the healthy keto food. Such as chicken, steak and ground beef and all the veggies you can think of. The other keto people are the junk food keto people. They eat all the cookies, donuts, cake, chips anything that you can think of that’s keto but not healthy they would eat. And I would say that I was the junk food keto person. I would see something that would only be 3 net carbs and would think to myself that’s not bad at all. But I would never look at the ingredients to see all the hidden stuff they put in there. 

I decided I needed to change. I knew I needed to loose weight and no matter how much I worked out if I still ate bad my weight wasn’t going to change.

I started meal prepping and made my boyfriend do it with me. For me personally I need at least one person to do something with me wether it be working out, shopping, or meal prepping I need someone to hold me accountable.

For breakfast we would have eggs with bacon. 

For lunch we would have buffalo wings with a little bit of ranch on the side 

For dinner we would have burgers without a bun and any type of veggie we were in the mood for.

Overall, I’m really enjoying this lifestyle change. It’s benefitted me a lot and I’m excited to keep going.
