Ed is back on Keto!

I mentioned the other day that Ed was back to eating Keto again. 

What happened is we were looking through some old photos and came upon some that were taken back when he was Keto.  He seen what he looked like back when he was eating Keto and apparently, he decided he wanted to be there again.

Ed, on Keto.  He got down in the 160's

He had lost quite a bit, but when he went back to eating his old way, he gained most of it back.  He started back then at 190 and this time his starting weight was 185.  

He decided on his own to get back on track and in fact, he ate Keto an entire day before he even told me he was back on track.  I am at work for 12 hours a day so I clearly have no idea what he is eating or drinking during the day when I'm not around.

Ed's version of Keto is a bit different than mine.  He does not track his food.  He does not watch his macros.  He just simply eats foods that are Keto Friendly and stays clear of the avoids.  That's it!  That's how simple it can be.  And it works.  For him. 

Granted, he probably is also doing 2MAD. (2 Meals A Day).   When we have them, he drinks the Premier Protein Milk Chocolate shakes for breakfast.  But when we don't have them, he fasts from dinner tonight until sometime in the afternoon tomorrow. He may grab a couple of cheese sticks or some 0 carb summer sausage when he gets hungry.    But he doesn't eat much until our evening meal.  

Anyway, he has been "Keto" again for almost 2 weeks now (it will be 2 weeks on Saturday) and he is already down 6.2 pounds. (This, is by simply not eating the foods on the DO NOT EAT LIST!)  I have that list posted on an earlier post.  It can be that simple, for some. 

He started on March 7th  at 185 and today he weighed in at 178.8  So he's lost 6.2 pounds already.  He wants to get back to 165, so he has about another 14 pounds to go.    We will keep you updated on his progress.

I have added him as a contributor to this Blog since he is our Keto Chef.  I have also added my daughter, Rachel.  She has also been Keto and has lost almost 25 pounds already!  I am so proud of them both.  So maybe, eventually, you will hear from them, too!  

Tonight, I also want to mention that my 90 year old father-in-law currently lives was us  He has been living here for a good while (I believe it will be 3 years, come September).  Anyway, when we brought him home, they didn't give him long to live.  He's been eating Keto with us and guess what!  He is still here!  He has long passed their date of  survival. 

In closing, I wore my new t-shirt to work today. (And got grease on it, of course.  Oh well,  it is now a  Work Shirt!:)
