Making your keto plan work for YOU is crucial if this is going to be your lifestyle. I find looking ahead at the calendar and planning out how I am going to do my keto makes me much more successful.
Not losing weight? You okay with that?
Not losing weight? You okay with that?
I have been living the Keto lifestyle for two years now… it’s so automatic I don’t really think about it. I also feel like this life is for living and sometimes I am not going to be ‘macro perfect’… and seriously, I am okay with that.
This last weekend I did go over in my carbs, but since I was intermittent fasting and I am fat-adapted, I did not notice much difference in my ketone levels, my energy or weight.
Did I lose weight? No. Am I ok with that? Yes. Why?...
My 72 Hour Fasting Experiment
My 72 Hour Fasting Experiment
I love to experiment with my keto plan and health protocols to see how my body reacts to things. I have been reading more and more about autophagy. In case you don’t know what autophagy is, it’s the body removing unnecessary or damaged cells and toxins; cellular garbage that if left in the body, can turn into disease. Occasionally clearing out that cellular garbage is the best way to stay disease-free in my opinion (and say all the keto doctors, such as Dr. Jason Fung, the most respected ‘fasting expert’ in the keto space). The body does this somewhat on its own, but when combined with fasting, it’s like autophagy on steroids!
What is OMAD and Why Should I Consider it?
What is OMAD and Why Should I Consider it?
The ketogenic diet has several benefits that aren’t directly related to weight loss. While many people start keto for weight loss, they often enjoy other health benefits while following keto. While these can vary from person to person, some of the benefits can include improved thyroid function, a reduction in migraines, and improved gut health. The key to jumpstarting the other health benefits of keto is "one meal a day," also called OMAD.
Why Do Intermittent Fasting?
Why Do Intermittent Fasting?
Intermittent fasting limits the eating cycle. The basic philosophy of fasting permits you to consume calories as much as you want in your "feeding" time, while food intake in fasting is restricted. This works great on its own, but combined with the keto diet, it’s quite amazing. Your body will turn into a fat burning machine.

Intermittent Fasting Experiment OMAD (23:1)
Intermittent fasting is when you fast (don’t eat) for a certain number of hours, and then you have an eating "window" (the 2nd number is your eating window). There are many types of intermittent fasting: 16:8, 20:4, and 20:3 (OMAD, or one meal a day) are the most common. I am going to talk about my 7 day experiment with 23:1 (23 hours fasting and a 1 hour eating window).

What is Intermittent Fasting and Why Should I Try It?
Intermittent fasting is not something that is specifically keto related, it can be incorporated into any eating plan (even if you don’t follow an eating plan at all). When you do it while being in ketosis though, it’s very powerful.
