11/04/2023

🎉 Week 1 is done and I'm already feeling amazing on my Keto and Intermittent Fasting journey! 💪🏼 With the help of intermittent fasting, I hit ketosis faster than ever before and I'm seeing all the signs. Plus, I'm drinking so much water I feel like I'm floating on air! 💦 And don't even get me started on my new obsession with iced tea with stevia.

Sure, the salty lime surprise and ACV shots may taste like regret, but they're worth it when you start feeling and looking your best. Speaking of feeling great, I haven't weighed myself yet - I'll wait until my clothes start fitting better before I face the dreaded demon scale. 😅

Check out my latest blog post, "Ketosis and Cotton Mouth: Surviving Week 1 of Keto and Intermittent Fasting" for my favorite Keto recipe that's perfect for enjoying over multiple nights. Trust me, once you try this winning combo, you'll be hooked! 💯

 Week 1 of the keto diet is in the books, folks! And let me tell you, it's been quite the adventure. Here are a few observations from my journey so far:

Hey there, my fellow foodies! Are you ready to take your health and taste buds to the next level? Well, have no fear, because I have the perfect solution for you: the combo of intermittent fasting and the keto diet!

Now, I know what you're thinking. "How can I possibly survive without my beloved carbs?" Trust me, I hear you. But here's the thing: when you combine intermittent fasting with the keto diet, your body becomes a fat-burning machine. It's like the ultimate team-up, Batman and Robin have nothing on these two!

Intermittent fasting helps your body reach a state of ketosis faster and stay in it longer, which means you'll start burning fat for energy instead of glucose. And the best part? You don't have to count calories or carbs! It's like a dream come true for us foodies.

But wait, there's more! Intermittent fasting and the keto diet have a ton of health benefits too. They can help lower your risk of chronic diseases like diabetes, heart disease, and even cancer. Plus, they can improve brain function, boost metabolism, and help you live longer. It's like the fountain of youth, but with bacon.

And don't worry, you can still enjoy delicious foods like bacon, avocado, and cheese. In fact, they're encouraged on the keto diet! And with intermittent fasting, you'll have a shorter window of time to eat, which means you get to indulge in bigger and better meals. It's like a foodie's dream come true.

So, if you're ready to take the plunge and try the combo of intermittent fasting and the keto diet, start slowly. Maybe skip breakfast a few times a week and stick to keto-friendly foods. And as always, listen to your body. If you're hungry, eat! But don't worry, you won't be hungry for long on this diet.

And that's it, my foodie friends! The ultimate team-up of intermittent fasting and the keto diet. Try it out and let me know how it goes. And don't forget to check out my blog for more foodie tips and keto-friendly recipes.

Morning routine is a key to my keto success. Scrambled eggs with bacon, bell peppers, and onions are my go-to for lunch. Nuts, cheese sticks, and carrot sticks make for a great snack. Grilled chicken with Dijon mustard, garlic, and lime juice marinade, plus a veggie stir fry make for a delicious dinner. Get a wok for easy stir-fry and exercise. Check out my blog for more keto tips and recipes!

 So here we are, another day on this keto journey, and I have to say, things are going pretty darn well. I'm pleasantly surprised that I'm not jonesing for carbs like I did last time around. Back then, I would've fought a pack of wolves for a doughnut out of a dumpster. But I think a big part of my...
