    Hello ladies! I am 53 and menopause came at me like a freight train! I have never really been overweight,  always exercised... But when I hit the big "M"... 30 lbs came on in 3-mos. for NO apparent reason!... I finally got the scale to move (DOWN) by going LCIF (low carb intermittent fasting). Look it up and best of luck to you!!

  • Hello ladies. I’m 54. Have been on keto for a year, though not consistently. Down 40 and hoping for 100 more. 💪

    jt0567ea71 Congratulations 🎈!  Have you found it harder to get back into Ketosis when you restart?

    jt0567ea71 Thank you for replying.  This is my first time following Keto, so I haven’t.  I was curious because I have read conflicting accounts and want to know for the future.  Thank you for sharing your experience. It’s very helpful.

    Kim I am in the same boat. I am having a tummy tuck in a few months and my ps told me the more weight I can loose the more loose skin she can take off. My daughter who is graduating in August is doing it with me. I would appreciate and tips from seasoned keto ers.
