Thought I would update you on the keto diet. The first week was pure hell! I had no energy, was so irritable and way less patience than I normally do! The eating part actually wasn’t that hard, just boring. So different to be eating all the foods that I have probably not touched or tried to avoid for the past year and a half. The beginning of the second week, I was doing better and had much more energy. I had a couple slip ups with the diet and now am debating whether I want to continue or not. This is NOT a diet I would recommend to someone who is just starting out with their fitness goals. For me, it was a way to break through my plateau of fat loss. I dropped from 19% to 18.4, maybe 18.1% in about a week and half. I had been struggling to break below that 19% for quite some time.

Now my plan is to continue on with my 2 upper body workouts and 2 lower body workouts per week and 2-3 days of cardio. I have been visiting bodybuilding.com a lot lately and find it very inspiring! As I dont wish to become HUGE and muscular, I do wish to be very well toned and look amazing! I will try to keep up better here and post more.

I am working hard to make Womens Diet and Fitness one of the best women’s fitness websites out there, feel free to visit the newly remodeled website and let me know what you would like to see more of!
