I had major back surgery from which I sustained very bad nerve damage.I was not very mobile due to so mush pain,so between little activity and eating as I normally ate before my surgery I put on 30lbs within about 6 months....if that's possible. So to make a long story short, I'm trying to get back into my size 8 again. As of right now I am a size 12 weighting at 165lbs and needing to get down to 135lbs.140 would even make me happy!That's when I found the Keto diet and decided to give it a try. Not only to lose weight but get healthy.I'm finding through my research that a lot of people are also getting healthier with this life style choice.
