Everything was so advance nowadays. They have the latest method and know the way, most importantly they work.
I was on keto diet for 5 days now and I have lost 5 kg of water weight despite eating and drinking lots of water. I still have another 37 days to go to finish my first phase before deciding whether I want to continue this.
I expected the weight loss in the first 10 days to be water weight loss. After that I should be expecting more fat loss.
Recently I learn that the body burn calorie from sugar, protein and fats. I need to teach my body to burn fat and I need to go on this keto diet for 6 weeks to achieve ketosis.
I need to eat more fat and some protein so that the body can learn and choose to burn fats instead of protein. I need to consume more vegetables too while I deprive my body of sugar and carbohydrate.
When the body start to lose weight very quickly, my body metabolism will slow down out of survival instinct, this is not what I want, I need to exercise regularly to maintain or raise the metabolic rate and prevent it from slowing down.
It was not a painful experience, imagine I was actually eating and losing weight. It was a happy thing to do, I see the result so quickly, it was very encouraging.
I had butter, hardboiled egg, scramble egg, broccoli, bacon, breast meat, pecan and lots of water with slices of lemon in them.
The trick is to deprive the body of sugar and carbohydrates. I started to visit the supermarket and read the label, and found out there are so many processed food in the market which is not very healthy for the body.
There is hope for fat people like me, losing weight and more importantly, this diet helps diabetic, heart and cancer condition.
I am doing my recovery one day at a time. Recovery is about changing to a new lifestyle otherwise nothing changes.
I cannot do this without the Higher Power giving me the strength to do it. God is everything, I am nothing. Thank you God.
