“Low carb has saved my life”

Before and after

Kim was in poor health and getting worse, and she needed to do something about it. Then one day she woke up and knew exactly what she needed to do – something had clicked:

The email

I’ve lost 40 kilos (88 lbs) on low carb high fat. I was 120 kg (265 lbs), my health was deteriorating with high cholesterol, high blood pressure, high sugars and I had just been diagnosed with a rare autoimmune disease. I needed to lose weight desperately or life was looking glim for me.

I woke up one morning and something just clicked. I started low carb last May of 2016 and haven’t looked back. I keep my carbs below 20 grams a day. I get my bloods taken every few months and can tell you along with the 40 kilos (88 lbs) lost, my cholesterol is now normal as well as my blood pressure and sugar. Low carb has saved my life, I will never go back to my old eating habits again.

Congratulations to finding low carb and improving your health tremendously! It’s very common to see not just weight loss but also improvements in blood sugar and blood pressure when avoiding most carbs, so a strict low-carb diet is a perfect choice with all these issues.
