I have been on keto for just over a year. In that time I have lost 110 pounds and improved my health. I did not have pre-diabetes but it was only a matter of time as it runs in my family.
The unexpected kicker is that people have been paying attention. So much so that they have hopped on the bandwagon.
My wife has lost 30 pounds on keto.
My father-in-law has lost 52 pounds on keto.
My Brother-in-law has lost 30 pounds on keto.
My Sister-in-law has lost 54 pounds on keto.
My Mother-in-law has lost (undisclosed) pounds on keto.
Word continues to spread with me being the example of the extreme weight loss that everyone refer back to as an example. I realize that this is not necessarily for everyone but no one can rule out what we see as our own success.
