Months ago I was intrigued by something Ana Justice posted on Facebook (no idea what it was, but I know her from way back and trusted what she was saying), so I bought a week of samples and tried Keto//OS out. I'm not sure I felt anything different at the time, perhaps because I took it so slow. But I wasn't ready to give up on this supposedly-amazing product.
I bought my own box and started having one drink a day, again not really feeling anything different. I kept being exposed to positive feedback on Pruvit and Keto//OS through social media, however, so remained interested in how it could help me. All I wanted to do was get back to my TOPS goal weight (about 15 or so lbs to lose), but that wasn't coming to fruition yet.
When there was a product sale, I jumped on it and bought enough to get me started more "hardcore" than before. I researched what I should eat and gave it a solid go for about a month. Alas, I still was not seeing results.
Less than two weeks ago I had a little chat with Ana about my lack of progress. She immediately suggested I track my food intake (yuck). My head said "no!", but my body said "yes!", so I went all in. With MyFitnessPal's premium subscription, I could track the exact percentages of carbs, protein, and fat required for the calories I felt were appropriate for my sedentary lifestyle. I recorded my weight and started tracking everything. Sure, it was hard to stay exactly within my limits for the day, but I can honestly say I gave it my best shot.
Since May 19th, I've lost 8 lbs. I can finally feel my waistline coming back. Most days my brain feels ultra-clear and focused. I sleep better. I don't crave carbs and get full quickly. I get to eat butter and cream and bacon and all the things that other "diets" shake a finger at! I actually have trouble some days getting to my fat goal, so my catchphrase has become "guess I'll just add butter".
I have been drinking a keto kreme in the morning with coffee and a chocolate swirl in the afternoon or evening for "dessert". Some days I just do two O/S instead. And sometimes I just eat what I want because you can't deprive yourself entirely!
I hesitated sharing much about my "keto journey" because I wasn't seeing results, but finally feel I am getting somewhere! I know that everyone is different, and therefore reacts differently to Keto//OS, but I now truly believe it is working for me. I probably could have lost weight without it, but the positive effects it has on my body make it entirely worth it.
I have at least 10 more lbs to lose and have no worry that I won't make it. I'll just keep tracking my intake, eating appropriate keto-approved foods, and supplementing with my Pruvit products! Thanks to Ana for being so supportive thus far!
