Had surgery today and my nurse was keto too!

I have been keto about 8 months, so not a true newbie, but not an oldie either.

Just thought I would say, “Hi!” I am 41. I came to keto through my dr, a reproductive endocrinologist. I have had 6 pregnancy losses in 3 years (my first was a daughter stillborn at full term, a second daughter at 18 weeks and 4 early losses). I have two living children; teens that are dabbling in keto. I live on a dairy farm. My husband is a network security engineer turned dairy farmer. I am a speech teacher.

I had abdominal laparoscopic surgery today (for infertility and related issues). I was offered gingerale and toast or crackers and I declined stating that I eat keto. My nurse told me she is keto too! She has lost over 80lbs. I thought that was super cool!

So anyway, excited to be here. I am looking forward to connecting with others doing keto for fertility.
