I just wanted to thank the people who created this forum! I began full on Keto in January mostly because of inflammation (I have arthritis in both knees), I was having brain fog - but more scary is that I was forgetting words and things I should readily know and it began to scare me. It was a friend of mine who introduced me to Keto OS (exogenous ketones) and because he had such great results for issues he was having and I was at my wits end, I gave it a try for a month to see how I felt. I was really amazed at the results. My knees were alway very swollen and would ache a lot and now I could actually see my knee caps! The brain fog - went away and I had way more energy. That when I really started to do my research and thought - if a product made me feel this good - what about switching my diet - and I did. I really felt alone though in my process. I had to figure everything out on my own, I read everything I could find on the internet and watched every video too. Then I came across this forum about a month or so ago. I finally felt that I found my peeps. The way everyone is so encouraging and the great advice and tips have helped me tweak my diet and introduce new things. I didn’t know about intermittent fasting or fasting till I started reading what other people were doing. I was inspired by zornfest last month and did 3 days, 4 nights and I am currently doing one now - almost at the 96 hour mark and will break my fast tomorrow sometime - although today was my hardest day, so we’ll see!
I have never felt better in my life. I have done everything possible to my body from eating disorder - to extreme exercise. I only do yoga now because I can’t do intensive workouts. I said to my husband this morning - I feel so good and yet I am not doing horrific things to my body that I have done in the past! This has been quite a journey. I’m going to see family and friends this summer who will probably poo poo my way of life - but now I have you guys to support me and encourage me and I gain so much inspiration from you all.
So again - thank you all. I am so grateful for your openness, your courage and your encouragement.
Words of gratitude

You just summed it up in a nutshell how I was feeling about the forums too. Thank you for that!
