A Little Bit About Me

Here's an intro about why I started this ^Keto Journey. I am 52 years old and currently perimenopausal. So why would I choose now to finally try to become healthy? Well, this is not the first time. As a matter of fact, it’s been a journey…my whole life. I grew up thinking ‘thin equals beautiful’, and even as a child I had an unhealthy obsession for food, so it was a recipe for disaster because I was constantly trying to be thinner, yet I loved to eat. My family likes to eat, and on both sides of the family, food was always the center of every celebration. Every family party, weddings, funerals, you name it, amazing tasting food was there, and lots of it! I’ve always liked it all…the “good-for-you” stuff, as well as the “bad-for-you” stuff, but I would typically choose the “bad-for-you” stuff if I were happy, sad, bored, emotional…you get the picture. As a result, my weight has fluctuated up and down like a yoyo for most of my life. I’ve tried a multitude of weight loss methods, but never found anything that was sustainable for me.
