Keto Works: Redditor loses 45lbs in Two Months
The keto diet is a low-carb, high-fat diet. This diet forces the body into a state of ketosis, where it begins burning fat for fuel instead of carbs. One Reddit user, Sauronsothereye, details how he lost 45lbs in two months with keto. He saw changes in his body and had more energy.
No Negative Changes after Weight Loss on Keto
One common concern with weight loss is that individuals may look drained, aged, or worn out as their body changes. People that lose weight on Keto diets, however, look more healthy, fit, younger, and display an overall energy change and stamina.
Favorite Keto Meals: Variety and Affordable
Sauronsothereye spent about $21-$27 dollars a week on food. For breakfast, he had 3 scrambled eggs, 2 slices of bacon, and a piece of string cheese. His lunch and dinner meals varied from brats to chicken breasts, cheeseburgers, shredded chicken salad, and stew steak bits. He also had sides like boiled broccoli and salads. As a drink, he used Crystal Light for flavor and consumed lots of water.
Keto Energy Boost and Physical Activity
Sauronsothereye not only lost weight on the keto diet but had increased levels of energy as well. His job was very physical which helped him burn extra calories. He also added a 2-4 times a week walk around the green river for additional exercise.
Try It Out: Keto Might Work for You too
Keto was an affordable and successful diet for Sauronsothereye. His weight loss success could be attributed to the low carb, high-fat diet combined with intense physical activity. He encourages people to try it out and see if it works for them too.
