inspiring keto weight loss story without sports

In many cases, weight loss is a long process, especially if you have to start with high numbers. Few people dare to show their photos until the parameters are completely satisfied. But our today’s heroine talks about the process and its continuation with pride!

How to lose weight forever

How to lose weight correctly

My story

Do not self-medicate! In our articles, we collect the latest scientific data and the opinions of authoritative health experts. But remember: only a doctor can diagnose and prescribe treatment.

“My name is Kay, I’m 39 and I live in Michigan. When the arrow of the scales exceeded 180 kilograms, I realized that this process must be stopped. I lost about 70 kg in a year and continue to get rid of the excess.

When I was a teenager, when the problem of excess weight came to full height, I forbade myself to weigh more than 90 kilograms. Having reached this bar, I said that the maximum was 130. But I overcame it too.

I tried many diets, but none worked. Trying to stay on a diet, I earned eating disorders: I ate under the covers at night, calculated mythical points for dishes to the point of stupidity … Sometimes my efforts were not in vain, but the kilograms returned, and the weight continued to grow.

First try

I tried going to different gyms in search of a good trainer and like-minded people, but I was completely unlucky. By that time, I weighed 150 kg and felt bad. I was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease, and despite the drugs, I experienced terrible pain that I would not want to live with for many more years. In general, at the end of 2014, I read and ventured to try a high-protein diet.

ADVERTISING – CONTINUED BELOW

Surprisingly, she came up to me. At first there were problems, but in general, weight loss was successful. By the time of the wedding in December 2015, I weighed 30 kg less than a year before, and I felt happy!

Two months later, I lost even more than 10 kilograms and realized that I would continue this path even further.

But then it turned out that I became very ill and gained not only those 40 kg, but also from above. I was broken, my hair was falling out, and I thought I didn’t want to live. I separated from my husband and stopped leaving the house.

Second try

Last May, when I saw the number 180 on the scale, I decided enough was enough! And after reading about the keto diet, she joined a support group. I needed like-minded people.

We lost weight together for three months, after which I decided to continue.

It was difficult: I was often sick and walked very little, but I worked on myself. As a result, in a year I lost almost 70 kg without going in for sports.

Now I understand that I will no longer give up on myself. The quality of life has improved, and who will refuse the good? My pain disappeared, I stopped taking pills (under the supervision of a doctor!). I no longer have to think about whether I can fit in an airplane seat. Freedom, health and happiness have become my companions.

I realized that I shouldn’t let my hunger take over. If I want to eat, I eat. I don’t count every calorie, I just look at the big picture and try not to eat carbs.

What do I eat now

Breakfast: coffee, boiled egg.

Lunch: meat in olive oil with cheese

Dinner: meat with vegetables.

Lately I have started to play sports. This, of course, sounds grandiloquent, but I again returned to the elliptical trainer and gradually began to run. Sports are not a prerequisite for a keto diet, but aerobic exercise is very beneficial for health and pumping muscles.

Another important rule worked for me: because I was overweight, I couldn’t afford excuses. “I’ll start on Monday”, “after the weekend”, “I ate a cake, now everything is possible until the end of the day.” I avoid such indulgences with all my might, because one pulls the other along with it.

And of course the support group is very helpful if you feel like you can’t do it on your own.

When choosing eggs, preference should be given to naturally grown eggs. These eggs are higher in nutrients and lower in allergens than eggs from farm-raised hens. Add eggs to your diet and get in shape with the keto diet.

Asparagus: A Source of Fibers and Minerals

Asparagus is one of the most popular foods on the keto diet due to its low carbohydrate content and abundance of vitamins and minerals.

It is rich in fibers that help improve digestion and reduce blood cholesterol levels. In addition, asparagus is a source of many important minerals such as iron, potassium, folic acid, and vitamin K.

  • Asparagus can be cooked in a variety of recipes and is a replacement for potatoes and other starchy vegetables on the keto diet.

Green vegetables: a rich source of potassium

Green vegetables include spinach, broccoli, lettuce, cabbage and more. Some studies have shown that regular consumption of potassium-rich green vegetables is associated with a reduced risk of heart disease and lower blood pressure.

  • Spinach is an excellent source of potassium, iron and vitamin K, essential for bone health.
  • Broccoli – in addition to potassium, contains antioxidants and phytochemicals that help protect against cancer.
  • Green salad is a low-calorie product that contains vitamins A and C, folic acid and potassium.

It is important to note that when following a keto diet, it is necessary to maintain a balance of macronutrients and micronutrients. Therefore, when eating a large amount of green vegetables, it is necessary to control and balance the amount of proteins and fats, because too many ketones in the body can lead to ketoacidosis.

Shellfish and fish: a source of healthy omega-3 fats

The keto diet can be high in protein, but it’s also important to make sure you have enough healthy fats in your diet. Shellfish and fish are ideal choices for those looking to get more omega-3 fats.

Omega-3 fats from shellfish and fish may improve heart health, lower bad cholesterol levels in the blood, help reduce inflammation, and improve brain health.

Sources of omega-3 fats include salmon, sardines, mussels, oysters, shrimp and other seafood. It is recommended to consume them at least twice a week to get the maximum health benefits.

  • Salmon is a rich source of omega-3 fats and vitamin D
  • Sardines are a great choice for a keto diet as they are rich in calcium
  • Mussels are rich in iron and vitamin B12
  • Oysters are rich in zinc, copper and vitamin B12
  • Shrimp is low in fat and high in protein, but still a great source of omega-3 fats

Make sure you choose fresh seafood and cook it properly to get the most health benefits.

Spices: natural antioxidants for health

When we talk about spices, we often think of something tasty and fragrant that will give the dish an unusual taste. But, in addition to taste, many spices are natural sources of antioxidants.

Antioxidants are substances that help protect the body from the negative effects of free radicals. Free radicals are unstable molecules that are formed in our body during oxidative processes and can cause various diseases, including cancer.

Many spices are known to contain various types of antioxidants. For example, turmeric contains the substance curcumin, which has a powerful antioxidant effect. In addition, turmeric helps to reduce the level of inflammation in the body.

Another spice that can have a positive effect on health is ginger. It also contains antioxidants that help fight free radicals. Ginger is also anti-inflammatory and can help reduce soreness in muscles and joints.

  • Turmeric
  • Ginger
  • Cinnamon
  • Garlic
  • Black pepper

. Using spices in cooking, we not only add taste and aroma to the dish, but also get natural protection against free radicals.

Keto diet and mushrooms: the perfect combination for a healthy life

Mushrooms: a source of vitamins and minerals

Mushrooms are a low-calorie food that contains many vitamins and minerals necessary for a healthy lifestyle. They are also high in protein, low in carbs, and virtually no fat.

Mushrooms are one of the most important foods in the keto diet as they are low in carbohydrates and are ideal for the body in ketosis.

Mushrooms are not only low in calories, but also rich in fiber, which helps lower cholesterol levels and improve digestion. They also contain B vitamins, which are essential for metabolism and the healthy functioning of the nervous system.

It is important to note that not all mushrooms are created equal. Some species may be toxic or cause allergic reactions. Therefore, before eating mushrooms, you need to make sure that they are safe for your health.

  • Top 6 mushroom foods recommended for the keto diet:
