I couldn’t keep it a secret. I felt obligated to tell someone. I had figured out a way to lose weight that actually worked. I didn’t feel deprived, and it seemed I could eat “this way” forever. It wasn’t that hard! Even if it felt embarrassing to talk about, there was no way I could have kept my mouth shut.
I wasn’t an expert or a doctor, just a regular wife and mother who had struggled with her weight for decades. I had lost 140 pounds and kept it off for years… surely someone would want to know how I did it.
I quickly wrote down my story, typos and all, and sent out my short story into the world via Amazon. Little did I know that thousands of people from around the world would embrace my method of DIRTY, LAZY, KETO and be inspired to make meaningful changes in their lives.
