Hi there! I'm Matt and I want to share my story...
 

I got married at age 18 and weighed 135 pounds.  I am 5' 8". I had two sympathetic pregnancies and after the second one I was over 200 pounds.  As the years passed I eventually peaked at 260 pounds.

​

I tried many traditional diets over the years and had some mild success with Atkins years ago. I stayed in induction, the entire time, which kept me under 20g of carbs a day. I did not even know what a macro was and lost 40 pounds but did not look at it as a lifestyle but a diet, so when I stopped I gained some of the weight back. I stayed between 125 and 135 for many years.

​

A friend lost 120 pounds in a year and I did not even know that he was living a ketogenic lifestyle. His transformation inspired me to consider my options. After doing a lot of research I decided it was time to make a complete change to my lifestyle and liked everything I was reading about the keto way of life. 

​

In the real world I am a medical professional, I am a paramedic and have worked with my own healthcare providers to learn, and implement my new lifestyle and monitor the improvements I have enjoyed.
