Went to the doctor Monday. I am officially down 13 pounds. Then another pound down this morning. Pretty much eat paleo plus cheese and greek yogurt. Very low Carb but too much fruit to be keto. Doc was impressed with A1C numbers. First time in a long time I have heard good news from doc. I am also allergic to yeast so hopefully the no Carb is part of why my asthma seems a little better. :fingerscrossed: I will throw an IRL party for you guys if I get to the point I can actually exercise again. My husband mentioned trying to walk again in fall and I couldn't believe it. I did risk a lap in the pool on vacation at the end of June. Only had a minor asthma attack not a major one. But it was worth it since it has been years since I swam.

That's great news madam squirrel. Sounds like walking would be a great goal for you this fall.

Even if you start out just walking around the block, I bet it would help. Now obviously I'm not a doctor or expert, but I would think that if you can build strength in your diagphragm and lungs by exercising, maybe it would help with the asthma. But I know your asthma is pretty debilitating.

Well I started on Monday, and 5 pounds so far. I'm sure it's water weight so the real results have yet to be seen.

Tomorrow makes a week I'm on IF. It for sure has helped me lose a few and I definitely look leaner. I've never really researched KETO.
What exactly is it? Simple explanation will do.

Put simply, low carb. Low enough that your body uses lipolysis/ketosis to generate ketones for energy rather than glucose from carbs, so you burn fat for energy. Typically under 50g carbs/day will get you into ketosis, but most commonly under 30 is your safest bet. So, fatty meat, nuts, cheeses, little dairy, veggies, and minimal berries. High fat diet.

see: Atkins or South Beach diet. They're both ketogenic diets.

Lipolysis is the breakdown of lipids and involves hydrolysis of triglycerides into free fatty acids, followed by degradation into acetyl units by beta oxidation. It produces ketones, which when produced in large quantities are described as causing ketosis. These can then be used by the body for energy. Lipolysis testing strips are used to detect ketosis, primarily in diabetic ketoacidosis.

Did low carb and did very well. Then went off track for quite a while crept back up and finally decided enough was enough. 

05-13-13 thru 07-31-13

Got back on track somewhat. On July 1st really started back on low carbs. Going to stay low carb til I reach my goal. Been lurking for a while will start back posting. Was a good motivation the first time.
