I started low carb diet last December 2021. I used to be semi-vegan.
Eating food with carbohydrates below 100g is a must.
In the low carb diet there is an IN and OUT list.
Foods that are OUT
sugar, sweet fruits,soda, chips, cheese, breads, vegetables that have inflammatory effect in the body, rice, juices, dairy, pastas and noodles
Foods that are IN
meats, eggs, sea foods fish, vegetables, almond flour, coconut flour, black coffee, shirataki: rice,noodles & pastas
Intermittent fasting is observed daily for ketosis or fat burning.
My fasting schedule that was given by my low carb diet coach is 12pm & 8pm.
I can have 2 meals a day. Lunch 12pm and dinner 8pm.
My coach suggested exercise every other day.
Muscle isolation exercise by platform vibration machine I did.
During the first 2 months I belched a lot. 12 times in 10 mins.
I have GERD from the diet. Drink a lot of water.
Feeling too weak to move. I tire easily.
Sometimes I experience hypoglycemia from my ketosis.
But the benefits of low carb is really wow!
My food allergy is gone.
I can now eat shrimps, clams , mussels, chicken and eggs.
I now enjoy wearing denim jeans. My waistline is now visible.
Abdominal muscle is gradually showing up in my tummy.
Breasts are more firm even without a bra.
Facial muscles are taut no dropping eyelids & double chin.
I am much healthier now. Than last year.
2019 I was rushed in the emergency room for pain in my lower abdomen.
The doctor have no idea what it was. CT scan is needed.
Kidney stone deposits are revealed!
Thank God I can get well by taking medications no surgery.
I paid P15,000+ hospital bills in less than 24hrs.
Kidney stone medication for a month at P5,000.

No hospital & cosmetic enhancement bills too.
My final decision is to keep my low carb diet.
Even though I reach my target weight & waistline.
I want to live long and look young without cosmetic surgery.
I save on money by being healthy.
