In this video, I talk about what my diet looks like now after quitting keto and about how many carbs I do eat. After doing keto for 5 years, I found that living a low carb lifestyle was an easier and more sustainable transition for me. All of my recipes are still keto friendly and low carb, so no need to worry about that!

Love this. I lost 85 lbs. doing just low carb. I feel like keto is so restrictive. It took me longer to lose the weight, but I just felt it was more doable long term.
Yes keto is a little bit more restrictive but as long as you found something that suits you and that is more doable. ❤
Can you tell me what macros you followed.
Congratulations on your weight loss!! That’s terrific! 👊🏻
How long did it take you to lose 85lbs?
Let me know what videos you will like to see next? More sit down talks or more yummy recipes? ❤️
When you transitioned from keto to low carb (upping your carbs) did you gain weight? And, if not how did you transition without gaining weight? If you did gain weight how did you adjust your carbs to go back to your set point?
thanks. take care
I don’t know how to eat low carb and would like to know what to aim for. Love your videos!

I’d like a full day of eating video with 100 carbs per day. I’m trying to lose the weight I gained back and trying keto this time around has been so hard for me. I think low carb might be what I need. But I’m also tired of tracking my food.
More yummy recipes please
Well said! Keto was fantastic for weight loss and I stayed on it strictly for 5 years…but it always felt like I was on a diet. Now I enjoy more carbs, but I time them around exercise, and I feel like I am in a happy, sustainable place. Now…how about the low carb Choco Taco?!?!? 🙂
Do what you do and share with us.I felt the same way on keto seriously stresed.Nobody else was on this restricted diet so that made it harder. I did lose 20 lbs but gained 20 back plus more. I’m a carbaholic. I felt better for a while but, I think the stress of the trying to stay on the diet caused me to get shingles.😮ouch. Keep giving us recipes and be your lovely self.
Yes Ma’am, eating Low Carb is a Life Style for me – Easy and doable. I Fast and if I know I woll have a little something…. I’ll either plan for it or I’ll clean it up afterwards with either fasting or increase my fat intake. You look FABULOUS & we Appreciate You. 🧡🍂
I’ve been on keto for the last 4 1/2 months down 50 lbs. At first, I was strict keto, but the last few months, I’ve allowed myself a weekly free meal. It helps me not feel so restricted, and I never have trouble getting back on keto or into ketosis. It works for me!
Low carb works for me also. However I need to incorporate more protein in my diet, it’s hard. I definitely agree with you about the feeling of being ‘restricted’ when we follow a strict diet. When we allow ourselves to have the ‘good’ stuff on occasion and in moderation it definitely helps to stick to the lifestyle.
Really excited to watch this video. Your story has a lot of similarities to mine. Keto was not sustainable for me. Once I actually “said it” and made the decision to stop labeling my diet, the pressure came 100% off of me and so did the pounds! I no longer count any carbs or macros and I’ve lost 60 pounds over the last 6 months. I turned my focus to moderation to be able to thoroughly enjoy all foods again. Life is so good❤️
I started strict keto July 2022 for metabolic reasons. Within 6 months my numbers were all within accepted ranges, my BP was normal and at 65 I dropped to my high school weight. I now consider myself low carb because I love my veggies. I’ve had no problem maintaining. One thing I’ve really enjoyed are your “treat” recipes. They’ve really helped. Thanks for all you do.
How did you transition ? Didi you gain any weight at all? Any tips? I am almost on my desired weight but i am afraid tô ganhando after transitioning😢
I was keto for a year but it really isnt sustainable. I heard recently that if you eat more protein then carbs your body will be just fine so I also upped my carbs to 50-100 a day. What’s interesting is that when I was on keto all I thought about was food, now that I do 98g c, 196g p, 87g f, I dont even finish those totals everyday. I stop getting hungry and end up more satified. The protein increase really does wonders. Carbs become something to look forward to instead of feelings of guilt. Like you said ice cream once in a while is so needed haha. You should try the breyers carb smart ice cream. It’s tastes so good! I then just add some sugar free syrup to it :3
Thank you this helps me tremendously, I love your cooking videos keep them coming!
I lost 40 lbs on keto but struggle to stay keto I’ve moved more low carb I eat some fruit and sweet potatoes as well but I always sweeten with swerve and try to stay away from sugar but don’t worry if I slip up and eat something with sugar every now and again.
You’ve done so good! Your story is inspiring🥰
Love these type of videos because it all resignates with exactly what im doing. Keto got me healthy. Low carb for the pass 3 years has given me peace. I feel so good about my low carb journey. I stay between 140 – 145 and it feels amazing. Thank you so much for sharing ❤️ 💕 💗 😊
This video was super helpful & really resonated with me. Agree that it sucks to feel like you’re on a diet and that there are “forbidden” foods. I like that you’re focus is on healthy, low carb eating, rather than a diet. Also, agree that when you’re restricting, you’re more likely to fill a craving and then completely backslide — which creates more feelings of failure & around & around it goes.
Please make more videos like this explaining how you’re able to continue to maintain your weight with this new outlook. Possibly with suggestions sprinkled in for those who still need to lose weight.
Ive been in keto for 4 years on and off. With Keto, I’ve lost 30lbs. I’ve also done low carb in the past and lost 20-30lbs, as well. Keto is definitely restrictive. But I’ve also learned what is and isnt good for my body, what makes me feel good after esting and not bloated. My downfall is sweets, I’m very big on sweets, keto restricts that a lot. Just Like Mayra, for me its more so, when I’m stressed or that time of the month that I crave sweets. Keto sweets are expensive, and as a single mom of 2, I’m trying to make time to make more meals and sweets.
Good for you! I’ve been totally keto for 6 years, not a single “cheat” day. I feel like they are just swaps for me and not restricting. Have you tried making mug cakes? They are a really easy sweet treat. Keto Connect has great recipes for several flavors.
I loved this video. I lost around 30lbs doing Keto but it wasn’t sustainable and I gained it back. Now I’m trying to do low carb, which I think I can do long term. Thanks again for all of your videos, they are so helpful!
I really resonate with what you are saying. I have lost almost 20 lbs in the last few months. I have been doing keto for about almost 2 month now and right now it is a struggle. I see how it is helping me because I am off 2 medicatios, I have lost some weight, and my blood sugars have stabilized. The downside is that I feel so restricted most of the time. There is so much focus on what I can or can not eat that it becomes frustrating and hard to deal with. I am the only one in my family doing this, so the other foods are always in my face. At the same time, I am afraid that if I stop keto already, i will gain the weight back and not lose anymore. I need to lose at least 20 to 30 more lbs. I still get tired and have cravings, which make things even harder. Sorry for the rant…I am glad that you have lost the weight and you look amazing. I am glad you found what works for you.
Started out keto in 2018. Am mostly carnivore at home & ketovore if I’m out to dinner. I’ve lost 80 or so pounds. Adding carbs back (sourdough bread, beans or starchy veg) raised my sugar. My A1C went from 5.0 to 5.2 Having low BS & A1C & fasting insulin is more important than being thin, but I’m 57.
I love everything that you share. KETO style really changed my relationship with sugar, the carbs ect…watching your videos, you showed us all how to create delicious recipes without sugar. In 1 year I reversed type 2 diabetes , my metabolic bloodwork changed from red flagged (very scary bad) to normal within that year and lost 55 pounds. also doing a daily 18 hour intermittent fast sometimes OMAD if I’m not hungry. I feel like I could stay fasting AND move more into the direction that you have been working on. I appreciate the much needed help and you are a huge part in the choices that I made that were truly life saving without insulin. Thank you for sharing your beautiful soul. I often wonder if you realize the healthy impact that you make on the viewers lives. Well done! I am 61 years old now and my husband and I plan on moving forward trying not to spend every moment with our heads wrapped around “DIET” as well with an emphasis on the protein light training.
Your Channel is in my wellness tool box and looking forward the future! Love to you and your family ❤
Thank you Myra! I absolutely have loved this video. I would definitely love to hear more about the holiday season and how you handle staying on track and maybe showing some recipes for the holidays. Thank you for all you do! You’re truly amazing. 😊
I am so glad you’re saying these things. I felt the same way on keto. Guilt when I put onions in my food, or having a fruit other than berries. I’m doing the same thing you’re doing now and feel so much better mentally!!’❤
