Rapid Weight Loss on Keto and Rapid

Rapid weight loss on a ketogenic diet (and rapid weight gain after?!?!)

You may have heard of a success story or two of a friend losing tons of weight when first beginning a ketogenic diet - something to the tune of 5, 10, or even 15 pounds in the first week or 2!

Have you also heard of anyone trying to come off of the keto diet? Likely they'd have complained to you about rapid weight gain at that point.

Check out my latest video (below) where I dive into the reasons for this rapid weight loss and weight gain...and share whether or not keto is key for fat loss.

Whether you choose to follow a specific nutrition plan or not, please know that anything that feels too restrictive...usually is! I'm here if you have any questions.

KETO benefits...without being in ketosis?

Have you heard of the keto diet?

The keto diet…or ketosis….or the ketogenic diet - they all refer to putting your body into a state of nutritional ketosis through consuming close to no carbohydrates (usually under about 20g or 30g per day).

It's very hot and trendy right now, but it's not a new concept. This type of eating has been around for a long time and used as treatments for things like epilepsy, other brain diseases, and some doctors even prescribe it for certain cancers.

But the main reason it's gained popularity recently is for it's potential to help people with weight loss. You may have even heard from a friend or family member that they "went keto" and lost a bunch of weight.

While I am not against the ketogenic diet for some people, some of the time, I am not a fan of it for most people, most of the time.

Watch (or listen to) my latest Workshop Wednesday video in which I dive into this topic. I was able to reverse my PCOS and insulin resistance holistically, but without going on a "keto" diet. In this video I share 4 ways I've been able to do this and how you can start to get many of the same health-promoting and weight loss benefits of the ketogenic diet without actually being in ketosis as well.

In good health,

What's everyone getting worked up about Keto for? BravoTV feature

Hey all,

Unless you’ve been avoiding all TV, internet, and media of all kind, you’ve probably heard about the very popular “keto” diet (a.k.a. ketosis, ketogenic diet, high fat low carb, HFLC…) What you might’ve noticed, too, is how many people seem to take this diet choice so personally - regardless of which camp they fall into. Check out my latest article feature for BravoTV to read up about what the diet is, what it claims, and why I believe people have such strong feelings about it!

I’d love to hear from you…do you know anyone trying this diet?

In good health,

Tara
