Keto Flu

September 3, 2019 by ChatItUp Leave a Comment


Keto Flu Dos & Don’ts Download

Many mainstream experts urge you to steer clear of a ketogenic diet because they warn of the nausea, headache, dizziness and flat out misery that many people experience while following a keto diet. What these mainstream experts fail to mention is many of these symptoms are only temporary for most ketoers who experience them…and if you approach keto the right way, you may not even experience these symptoms at all!

These symptoms come along with what many refer to as the Keto Flu. They can typically occur within the first few weeks of the diet as your body switches over from burning it’s primary source of fuel of glucose to its new primary source of fuel of fat. As your body is making the switch, it can freak out since you’re losing electrolytes in mass and your body may think fuel is scarce when it’s no longer receiving the carbs it’s become accustomed to running on.

In today’s Chat the Fat we’re talking about the dreaded keto flu, along with the steps you can take to lessen keto flu or even avoid it all together!

  • We talked about what the keto flu means and some of the symptoms associated with it
  • We also reviewed what causes the symptoms referred to as keto flu
  • We shared some of the initial steps you can take to get past the keto flu stage
  • And then we reviewed 5 easy steps you can take to lessen or avoid keto flu completely

Her success story is a great example of how stumbling upon a keto lifestyle and taking time to individualize a keto plan meant for her has forever changed her life! You can use some of the same strategies she uses to build a keto success story of your own!

3 Keys to Suzanne’s Success

Key #1 – She didn’t have a gallbladder

Key #2 – She started where she was instead of jumping in all at once

Key #3 – She put in the research to figure out what is right for her

Interview with Suzanne from Keto Decoded

August 27, 2019 by ChatItUp Leave a Comment

Suzanne Johnson is a 48 years old mother of 4. She started Keto in June 2018 and since then, she’s down 65 pounds…in less than a year!   

Suzanne was a yo-yo dieter since she was a teenager. She’s tried everything from taking laxatives in college, dexatrim, weight watchers, low fat, low calorie, and even liquid diets. Like a lot of yo-yo dieters, if you can name a trendy diet, she’s tried it. 

Suzanne had her gallbladder removed a few years ago, but still decided to move forward on a high fat keto plan. She found my Coach Me Course & My Big Fat Life Transformation book, which also led her to TC Hale, where she took the digestion course and enrolled in the Keto Decoded Membership. These courses helped her learn how to test for chemistry imbalances she needed to improve to balance her body. She also began digestive supplements to make the weight loss process easier by improving her digestive symptoms. 

During this episode of Chat the Fat, we discuss Suzanne’s journey from yo-yo dieter to how she ended her struggle for good with a real food keto diet.

50 Shades of Keto

August 13, 2019 by ChatItUp Leave a Comment


Free Guide to Keto Plans Download

If you’ve taken time to research keto and that left you absolutely confused, you’re not alone. See, ketogenic diets began back in the 1920’s as a treatment for epilepsy…but these days, they’re being used in full force as a diet for weight loss, and also for the health benefits that come with a ketogenic diet beyond weight loss, like lower blood sugars and extra energy throughout the day. 

On today’s episode, I’m talking all about the different forms of a ketogenic diet. While it’s true keto began as a very high fat, very low carb plan meant to heal children, now there are different keto plans that work for different keto dieters. This makes sense since we’re all different people with different body chemistries. 

Lazy Keto 

  • Many who follow lazy keto can see amazing results
  • Lazy keto is a good start for many coming from the standard American diet
  • Some may eventually stall on a lazy keto plan

The Standard Ketogenic Diet

  • This is a high fat, low carb and moderate protein plan
  • This follows ratios of macros similar to 75% fat, 20% protein and 5% carbs
  • Standard keto focuses more on quality of food over quantity

    High Protein Ketogenic Diet

    • Some focus more on eating more protein, while moderating fat
    • Carbs should still remain low while following this plan
    • Many who follow a high protein keto diet still have to count calories
    • Some people who follow this method eventually stall or never make it into ketosis

    Cyclical Keto Diet

    • These dieters focus on eating standard keto at least 5-6 days each week
    • Cyclical keto dieters add carb ups to their routine to help refill glycogen stores
    • This is said to help athletes with better performance

    Targeted Keto Diet

    • This is a hybrid of a standard keto diet and a cyclical keto diet
    • This version is also meant for athletes
    • These ketoers add high glycemic carbs right before their workouts

    Exercise Isn’t Always Necessary for Weight Loss

    August 2, 2019 by ChatItUp Leave a Comment

    Most fitness gurus will tell you there are 2 major components necessary for weight loss success: Move more, eat less. I’m here to shout, “Boloney!” Following that advice is going to help your weight loss efforts as much as eating bologna at every meal will. Watch this video to learn how I ate more and exercised less to lose more than 100 pounds!

    In today’s episode I talk about 3 reasons how exercise could actually hurt your weight loss efforts and why you need to quit using the fact that you despise formal exercise as an excuse not to get started on keto.

    Reason #1 – Too much cardio can lead to inflammation

    Reason #2 – Calories in vs. calories out has been disproven

    Reason #3 – If you’re new to exercise and you try to do too much right from the start, this can result in an injury.
