Was I Fat?


(Dean) #1

So I think it’s interesting how i view my former self, I used to think i was just gaining weight and getting fatter, now my thinking is I was inflamed, Inflammation! I lost a lot of fat around my belly but one odd place was my feet, they do not look swollen any more. they look like the air has been let out! lol I’m not sure what topic i’m getting to but i guess it’s just how i view my former self.

Me, too, but I’m pretty sure I was retaining water from hypertension, one of metabolic syndrome’s ugly little sidekicks. It all got better on keto but I still have to make sure I don’t stress my body too much while I heal.

Before Keto I always thought that my feet were the only “normal” sized part of my body, but I’m finding my shoes are getting looser.

The flushing of excess water is amazing on keto. I hate being puffy!
