Just a quick note about me. Single woman age 58 and I love to cook! Like many people, our family was immersed in cooking large dinners and cooking for large groups of people. My Uncles always managed the church dinners. My sister is a chef and I went to culinary college after spending years as an event planner. I operated a catering business and a banquet facility before 2008. Now, I am a consultant for 3 restaurants (one BBQ, one Fine Dining Italian, and one Pub) plus book events for at least 3-4 trucks. Can you imagine being around smoked brisket! Yummy. I have fun visiting the restaurant twice a month taking my vinegar and avocado oil to top my spring greens and fresh smoked pulled pork salad! Keto for real!

I'm here to finally lose the weight I've gained since 2008. I tried ketosis before but with Medifast. I love their shakes but the powdered food - I know its changed - but I never understood the science of ketosis or how to do it on my own. I will be successful now once and for all and I'm looking forward to reaching my first goal before my 59th birthday! I'm so new at this any help you can offer is great!
