- Sarah and I decided to discuss this article. We do not have kids, so our opinions are based on being overweight/obese as children. We do not condone any hate or trolling of others based on their opinions about keto or anything else! Positive vibes only everyone!

We are not medical professionals, we are just sharing our ketogenic weight loss journey. It is always recommended to ask your doctor if a lifestyle change is right for you before starting.
This world has gone insane. Nobody should receive death threats from complete strangers for not feeding their kids sugar. Completely ridiculous. I just don’t understand what makes them think they’re entitled to a say. Went and followed House of Keto to lend her my support.
I bet these parents feed their kids fast food.
Obesity in children is around 20% according to the CDC. I applaud parents who focus on a keto diet for their children. They are giving them a heads up on growing to healthy adults and seniors.
I don’t understand how feeding your Kids Keto could be so detrimental. You feed your kids what you feed your kids. They don’t know they are being restricted.
Exactly! What causes disordered eating roots in mental health issues. There are allot of reasons.
They are in the process of learning like anything else, and it's up to adults to teach them. So, why not.
I’m eating way more greens and Whole Foods than ever before on Keto. 🤷🏾♀️ If you are feeding your children Whole Foods for children than I don’t see the problem.
My kids are grown up but I wish I had done keto a long time with my kids so they grow up healthy and took that into their adult life
Something about social media makes people think they can say ANYTHING no matter who it hurts!! I can’t stand that!! If I see something I don’t agree with I just keep scrolling!!!! If I could raise my girls again, I would do it WITHOUT sugar and several other things!!
We agree Leslie, the comments section of almost every part of the Internet has turned toxic. 😢 (we are grateful that most of our audience is so lovely!) -Em
Sugar, wheat, and corn are traded commodities, so the sugar and grain industry will always have a vested interest in what people eat. For a long time, diabetics were prescribed saccharin to use instead of sugar. The minute saccharin began appearing in soft drinks they suddenly cause cancer. The same has been true for nearly all artificial sweeteners: cyclamates, xylitol, aspartame, etc. I have never understood why it bothers someone else what I, or anyone else, eats.
Nice catch!
When I started Keto my children were obese as well. I tried it for a month, lost over 10 lbs and put them on it as well. They were 10,12, and 28. We all lost weight and got healthier. Children should not be raised on processed sugar filled foods.
When you said, "A lot of people have guilt about the way that they live, and the way that they know they are out of control." You hit the nail on the head. Also hit the nail on the head when you pointed out that "there's a lot of big money behind making sure that Keto doesn't succeed."
Obviously I'm keto...my son who's over weight eats keto...however my daughter who's weight is fine...eats as she pleases...he has a choice of both...he normally chooses keto...he's lost 30 lbs 6ft tall and was 280. In no way do I force him...and I'm proud of his choices
I WISH I had sent my kids to school more with celery stuffed with low sugar peanut butter instead of the standard PB&J sandwiches. If I had only known then what I know now. …….
I agree. I think if I had raised my kids on that stuff and that’s all they knew there would be no Turning up their nose at it. I do make food for my granddaughter using my keto sweeteners....she has no idea. She doesn’t need that extra sugar.
I have 7 children, they are all very healthy. I feed them a clean eating lifestyle. Yes, they have bad carbs once in a while, but not every day. Clean eating, keto. Is great for children. I have a 3 year old who if he eats a good clean meal in the morning, meat based, he has a better attitude, then if he gets cereal.
When I started keto I had high blood pressure. High cholesterol. And type 2 Diabettis. 8 weeks into keto I’m down 33 pounds, dropped 4 pant sizes. I’m no longer on Blood pressure meds, my cholesterol is perfect and my a1c went from 14.2 to 5 .2. I’m no longer on insulin or any other diabetic meds. So anyone who says this is a unhealthy diet don’t know what they are talking about. I’m healthier now then I ever was. Thank u for all you guys do for the keto lifestyle.
That’s so great Robert!! -Em
Thank you
In the 50s-60s-70s the Diet Plate in a restaurant was a hamburger patty, sliced tomato, and whole milk cottage cheese. Wasn't very long ago when that was acceptable. Keep up the good work!!
I have 4 kids Teaching them to read food labels and feeding them a human diet isnt evil its like teaching anything else we should all know how to do
I was an overweight kid in the 60’s and 70’s. I weighed maybe 145. Different standards back then. My parents took me to Weight Watchers. Now, that was restrictive. Fast forward to when I brought up my 3 sons in the 90’s. I raised them to like meat and vegetables as well as the more carb heavy choices. They learned from watching me struggle with yo-yo diets that it is best to make small diet changes. In my 60’s I realize that the Keto lifestyle is not a diet it is a way to feel better and be more healthy. And it really is not restrictive, if you are hungry, eat something. On WW, if you were hungry, sorry Charlie, if you eat it’s cheating. I hated it.
Must be representatives from Monsanto, Kellog's, and General Mills making the death threats.
🎯
Well said, I wish I'd known and followed this way of eating when I was a young. My bad habits rubbed off onto my eldest who is now severely obese.
Hopefully he will come to you for help when he’s ready Debbie ❤️-Em
My grandson at age 12 was so big. It was so unhealthy and he was not really happy. He started Keto, the clean Keto, he lost all his weight and is very healthy now. He takes vitamins and does not even think about food anymore. Once in awhile he will have a day where he will have something he wants. I don't make a big deal about it and he goes right back to Keto. I am very happy for him. It is not a bad thing at all. It is healthier than all the sugar and junk he had been eating.
That’s so great to hear about your grandson Nuna! -em
People really need to quit getting all up in other people's lifestyle choices. I don't understand why people follow people they don't agree with. Just move on. It must be a very sad existence to just look for content you don't agree with. You girls Rock! Sounds like House of Keto does too.✌🏼
Love watching Sara's face when Emily is reading! 😂
Keto set me free too!!! All wise words from wise women...🤠💕
I think I probably once thought that a life without pizza and cookies was not worth living. But that was my Carb addiction talking. Living without constant pain and inflammation is my REAL TREAT that I couldn't even fathom was possible before I tried Keto.
I do have kids. And I watched them putting on the pounds younger than I did, and I had gained weight younger and gotten heavier than my folks had. This is what really was the breaking point for me. My bad example of pizza and cookies was leading them to grow up unhealthy and unhappy just like me. So when I went Keto, my adult son joined me. He lost 80 lbs and now has a healthy BMI and body fat percentage. My daughter is more low carb as she is younger and so she still enjoys a sweet dessert, but only one and only after a whole foods dinner.
Loveee to hear about you and your family’s success!! Yay! -Em
As I stated in the past a Urologist recommended the keto diet for my son in the 90s to help with epilepsy. There’s a lot of parents that would just rather go the easy route and the cheap route with their kids daily nutrition I hope someday that changes.
The saddest part of this is that the people who slam Keto are victims are the food industry's lies.
People should stay out of other people's choices. She is out there trying to help people to think more soundly about what children really need. They need to learn to make good decisions, and having the discipline to eat in a way that helps their body thrive - instead of junk food and having tantrums when they can't have it. She deserves all the love!
People are getting rich off making people fat. You can get a cheeseburger for $.99 but a salad is $5.00. it's cheaper to feed a family with pizza than whole, natural foods.
Right……Tv commercials etc,,,,
All the Keto naysayers need to do more indepth research. Thanks Em, Thanks Sarah for commenting on this!
I don't know if this has been said here already but breastfed babys are actually in ketosis!! Keto is a sustainable human "diet"
I for one did not know that, thank you and in a side note it's loathesome that your perfectly fine name has become a negative adjective, all the best.
@@infinite6163 Awe how sweet. I have been wanting to change my name on CZcams because of the negative ties but I just can't get myself to.
I’ve done the low carb lifestyle a few times in the last 20 years and am currently on it again. I feel the best when not consuming carbs! I have more energy and more self esteem, because I feel and look better. I told my doctor the same thing and he replied, then do low carb, whatever makes you feel good! My cholesterol goes down, along with my weight. It’s a win win situation! Nobody has the right or business to dictate what you or your kids eat! I also just subscribed to House of Keto! It’s a GREAT lifestyle to have!!!
She was just on Dr. Ken Berry's show! We have become a nation of people wanting to throw hate instead of showing support and compassion. We need to do better!
I’m 69 yrs old….grew up with Italian foods….all the processed sugary foods..didn’t exist like today……tuff for parents of today kids are exposed to tv ads etc…..as children we ate fish, seafood,meats veggies……and we played outside……walked to friends..etc. I don’t say keto anymore….I say I’m eating well, balanced meals…..I was a candy lover for yrs as an Adult…….no cravings.I feel great! I share your channel on my FB , if it inspires someone that’s great!
I think some of the fuel for this anger and outrage is ignorance. So many people don't really know what Keto looks like. I'm older than you two. My pediatrician put me on Atkins when I was 9 or 10. It wasn't called Atkins back then, but essentially, I ate meat and veggies. Well, throughout my life I have been cognizant of how my body responds to excessive carbs. I have not always been faithful to a low carb lifestyle, but I see the pounds almost immediately once I stray. What's even more sad is the health benefits of Keto/low carb living are being downplayed and overshadowed by the negative hype. I have two friends battling cancer. Both of them were advised by their oncologists to restrict carbs, specifically sugar and starch. I'm not an expert, but clearly there is something beneficial about the lifestyle.
I wish I knew about keto as a child. I wish I knew about it when my children were younger. I'm 50. At 48 I topped out at 462. Im now down to 355, but my knees and hips are shot. My doctor actually had me on a complex carbohydrate diet when I was 14. Boy were they wrong. I love your page. You two and the rest of the keto youtubers help people realize that you can make a keto version of almost anything. Keep up the good work girls.
Thank you so much Coleen for sharing! Congrats on losing over 100 lbs! Yay! -Em
I fed myself & my family the S.A.D & we're all fat. So now we're trying to undo the damage with low carb. Hopefully my son will start his adult life with better understanding of nutrition & sustainable eating habits.
Misery Loves Company! Everyone wants to bring everyone else down to their level!
Like yourselves, I wish I would have been educated as a child as well as a parent about proper nutrition.
My 24 year old son is still willing to learn from my example as the “shrinking woman” so looking forward….that is a positive.
Should you choose to become parents one day, you are waaaay ahead of a majority of us in the community.
Rock on Twins! ❤️
Yes, I agree with you both and thank you for discussing this issue, I think the biggest problem is the non-understanding of what a Keto diet is, I have previously heard from a neighbour who was on this diet before me, but she became unwell with breast cancer and has thrown this lifestyle out with pressure from the medical profession, and her term was "It's not a good idea to thrown a whole food group out" and she was doing the diet before, I was pleased with myself at this time because I was able to say straight away that Keto doesn't throw carbs out of the diet, it just limits it, in a healthy way. I am a mother of 3 children and the most important thing when deciding on your children's diet is, understanding what is healthy and what is not, by providing a balanced diet and the SAD is not healthy especially for children who know no different. As parents, we protect our children and I think that this parent is very sensible and I support her decision.
Thanks for a great video! I am a 74 year old grandma who has watched her weight since she was 18 and left for college. Over. The years I must have gained and lost over and over at least a couple hundred pounds and followed every diet I heard about. I was always hungry and thinking about what I was allowed to eat next. Well, at the start of the pandemic,, I decided to looss20 pounds that had been creeping on since got full and retirement. Thanks to a lovely daughter in law I learned about keto and gave it a try. The weight melted off and I have never felt better. Best of all, I
I am 53 years old, been dabbling with low carb/keto for over a year and what I just realized is that I need to be eating like I did when I was a kid - in the early and mid 1970s, and no video games, no cable tv. let me explain - after school, summer break, etc. it was us getting together with our friends playing at the playground, walking the creek, exploring in the woods, walking the neighborhood, riding our bikes or rollerskating every where we wanted to go. we would be gone after breakfast, until dinner time. we’d stop at some friends house for a drink of water, usually from the garden hose - if we knew we were going fishing at the creek we’d pack pb sammies and some cool aid. and many times we’d run in the house and grab a quick slice of deli meat or cheese (or both) from the fridge and roll it up and eat it. and back out the door we’d go. we’d grab an apple, a pear, plum, or an orange too. it depended on what was in season and what the parents bought on sale. quick, simple and easy to eat foods. notice all the movement, too. we never sat still for long. chips, pretzels, doritos, etc were an occasional treat. same when the ice cream truck came around - sometimes mom and dad would say yes, sometimes they’d say no. i have a daughter, 28, and she was able to enjoy a similar childhood, but with 100 plus cable channels including disney and cartoon network, and with computers, and video games thrown in. and a way bigger selection of heat and eat meals, and pre packaged snacks. i noticed the kids didn’t go outside as much when she was growing up. we didn’t have a microwave and pizza rolls, popcorn, to pop in and have a hot snack in 2 minutes or less growing up, but she did. kids read less books, don’t play with barbie dolls or hot wheels, and use their imagination and entertain themselves and keep themselves busy these days. i’m just trying to show the differences and hopefully people will see what’s changed as a society and maybe that has a part to play in things and the obesity thing in america. all the conveniences make it easier to be lazy and not eat as good as we did in the past. sorry for ramble and i hope this made sense.
Thank you for sharing Cathy! Kids today definitely grow up in a different era! -Em
I just followed her page. I wasn't obese as a child BUT that was only because I was so active. I wasn't taught good eating habits and had to do my own research as an adult. Keto is my forever way of eating and while I don't completely restrict carbs with my children, I am working to lower the amount they eat and teach them healthy habits.
As the mom of a 21 yr old who only eats hotpockets and chicken nuggets, I really wish I had knew of keto and raised them on it!
I am a mom of 5 kids, and i certainly do tell my kids that icecream and cookies are not good for them and theyre a special treat. My kids have that only in moderation and guess what not one of my kids are even slightly overweight and rarely ever get sick. Not sure i would have my kids eat keto but certainly wouldn't say you cant say certain foods are bad.
Thanks for being who you are. I wish I knew that I know now when I was a kid also. I was always overweight except when I was on the military. Than we were on a military diet and we were constantly active adn exercising. After my time in service I got overweight again. I really appreciate what you are doing and I love trying your receipes and losing the weight. Some people just make comments to create drama. I am loving keto and nothing anybody says will change my mind. Thanks again for all you do and be blessed every day.
As someone who has been extremely overweight and/or obese since I was about 7 years old on, I wish my parents had raised me on a keto-ish way of eating. A balanced keto diet with the addition of some fruit and maybe some occasional treats would be perfectly healthy for kids and set them up for success. Kids don't need all of the processed foods, grains, sugary cereals, and all of the other things we think of as "kid foods". I learned terrible eating habits very early on and it is so hard to unlearn habits you've had for 30 years spanning all of your formative years. Great video :)
I agree with you. I was fat my whole life until I took sugar and carbs out of my diet. I am 74 soon to be 75. Keto on and keep the faith
I think the word Keto triggers so many people. If you just identify as low-carb, people seem to accept the lifestyle.
I agree that how educate our children is our choosing thus teaching them to make healthy choices and set boundaries for themselves is not just important, its crucial. I'm a Mom of seven in our blended family by the way.
Agree with you guys 100 %.. they don’t even know what they are talking about .
When I was growing up in the 70s we were super restricted with our food but we also got shamed for our weight by my father and once I was on my own I could eat a whole half gallon of ice cream and nobody could stop me so it was a big psychological thing.
We can relate to this as well!
every person should be restricting processed foods and carbs. It annoys me enough that our schools have two "snack" breaks each day and it must be in the form of a packaged good with a label. I have 3 children. My son and I are both Type 1 diabetics, so you can just guess what type diet our house tries to follow.
BTW, the article is completely ignoring that "SAD" is also a type of "diet"
I think it's great to educate the children about food so they can make better choices as adults. I was always told to clean my plate and I am convinced that is partially the reason for me being obese before Keto. I have learned that grains and sugar make you hungry more often. I learned it by doing Keto. My nieces had McDonald's earlier this morning and they were hungry just a few hours later. It's so obvious to me now that the grains and sugar are why I suffered for years. I agree with you that eating Keto frees you from yourself. Food is no longer the top thing on my mind the whole day. All the junk is off limits and that is freeing once you accept it.
I weighted 160lbs in the 4th grade. I ate nothing but cereal, milk and biscuits. I wish someone had introduced me to veggies and meat when I was little. They didn't, they just kept stuffing wheat and wheat products in my pie hole then bitched because I was fat.
I have been listening to the book Grain Brain, which is something we all need to hear. People who are uneducated should not talk about things or people they don't know.
Yes, grain brain is a great book! -Em
Maria Emmerich had raised her children sugar-free, gluten free so essentially Keto.
We are supposed to teach our children. That includes how to make good choices. I wish my mom would have known what I do today. My childhood and most of my life I have been overweight. Now at 60 I live a keto life style. I have lost 80 lbs in the last 2 years.
My son is not overweight and I don't restrict him on eating what he want but he enjoys what I'm eating especially chaffle pizza... When I go OMAD he's also eating once a day even I have food prepared for him.
Ketosis is a therapeutic necessity for children with epilepsy, type 1 diabetes and some types of cancer.
People that don't know about keto, just think it is like the Atkins deit.
At my last check up my DM suggested to decrease or no process sugar and lower carbs, but would not say Keto?
A lot of doctors have to follow the guidelines set out by the government…. They can’t tell you to do keto, but if you have success with keto, I’ve heard doctors saying “keep doing what you are doing” aka, they can’t tell you to do keto. -Em
@@ketotwins This is exactly what my doctor told me after getting blood sugar out of diabetes range through a keto lifestyle.
My Mom put me on Dr Atkins diet in 1972 when the book came out. I was 6 years old. I remember eating hamburger steak with cheese, green beans, iceberg lettuce wedges with mauo, slim jims, peanut butter, cheese slices, dill pickles, steak, chicken, and sugarfree jello with liquid whipping cream on top. I was barely chubby, but I guess she wanted to teach me young. I even had to show her the keto stix were purple so she'd know I wasn't cheating lol. (I do remember my friends buying me orange pushups at school lunch once in a while because they felt sorry for me haha.) I'm thankful she did because I have the tools I need ingrained in me. I'm keto now.
Heaven forbid we feed our children healthy food and set them up for success and a long, happy life nutritionally. "Health IS wealth".
I simply don't buy highly processed or high sugar/ carb foods. This means my children only have healthy, low carb food to choose from. Their diet is made up of meat, vegetables, low glycemic fruit, cheese, seeds and nuts. As a treat we do dark chocolate, chia seed pudding, and some baked goods with nut flour. I also bake my own multigran bread weekly for the kids and will make them sandwiches with nut butters or meat and cheese. Their health is excellent and I am very proud of the way my family eats.
Many children are put on long term ketogenic diets to control health conditions such as epilepsy, type 1 diabetes, ADHD, inflammatory gut disorders and a variety of other things. They don't have any long term health issues or "disordered" eating. I personally wouldn't choose a keto diet for my kids unless it was necessary, but they basically eat what I eat with the starchy foods in addition. I try to limit treats because as a former obese child myself, I know what a slippery slope it can be. But I let them have it occasionally.
60 lbs thinner on keto agree with you ladies. In fact people should copy the keto.
Also, I watch Dr. Jason Fung. He is a nephrologist and promotes fasting for weight loss, intermittent fasting, and low carb eating to control type 2 diabetes and weight loss. He also talks about the science on why this is healthy.
Great topic and content! It can be a bit of a Pandora's Box. My 4 brothers and I didn't always get fed and would cut out pictures of food in magazines and eat them, followed by punishment when it was discovered. There can be strong emotions in this subject that people, like myself, have to learn to overcome. I promised myself that I would never go hungry again and started working at age 13 delivering newspapers just to feed myself back in the 1960s-70s. Too much to say in this forum but I am very glad this came up. There are no perfect parents and we all make mistakes. 😎👍🏻
This diet HAS actually been suggested for kids that suffer from seizures. I think I even heard that it can be a helpful diet for kids with autism as well.
People get mad because it attacks their food paradigm, which is full of emotions and memories. What they need is a paradigm shift.
Hey Ladies ~ would you consider a video about eating out at restaurants? Always love your content!!
I’ve heard that food companies are trying to pay off doctors and the like to say that sugar I’SNT bad for you. Just like they did with salt in the past. How crazy is that?
Wow I’ve never heard of that! 😢-Em
You don't have to have children to have perspective. People have all been children and most have been fed the standard American diet with poor results. In recent years most people have gone way out of control with all the different advice (esp low fat diets) and gotten into even poorer health. A lot of people who criticize keto don't even know what keto means. This was another good video, ladies!
I wish I had been restricted as a child maybe the aches and pains I feel in my limbs from being overweight wouldn't exist today...
Same Kami! But there’s hope for the future 🤗🤗-Em
I wish someone would have told me about what I have learned about Keto when I was younger. Regarding keto and children, Keto Connect on CZcams are raising their children to eat keto with other items to give them a taste for veggies. You might want to look them up.
As a 65 year old woman I say these people are just wrong. I only remember 3 people who were overweight when I was growing up, 1 neighbor when I was 6 and twin girls in high school. We never went out to eat . I ate 1ce at McDonald's & 1ce at pizza hut prior to 1974. Now most people are insulin resistant, diabetic or well on their way. I control my t2d with keto/ low carb otherwise I would be on medication. Over 40 % of adults are obese and 20% of children. Obesity causes diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, depression and who knows what else. A healthy diet is not sugar, chemicals and carbs and its getting worse.
If you are old…you grew up as a child eating close to keto. Potatoes featured more heavily than would allow it to call it that, but we had all vegetables that were locally available, seasonal fruit…very very occasional bananas and oranges, and they weren’t like modern ones…meat, fish, eggs, cheese, with homemade recipes, pies etc. Milk, raw, and butter and cream from the farm down the road. Proper food! I was born in the UK on the tail end of rationing, so we didn’t eat lots of sugar anyway. We had a homemade cake maybe once a fortnight. People are insane these days.
I have the MTHFR gene and I know my kids have it too. The keto diet is very helpful for us. I notice my kids are worse with sugar and carbs.
I get asked all the time if my kids are on "keto". I always say that I'm not about to cook 2 different meals every meal for my family. They eat what I eat and truth be told have a varied palate because of it. Maybe they haven't tasted the latest Dorito flavor or Skittles, but they have a love for veggies and don't have texture issues related to food. As a (now reversed thanks to keto) type 2 diabetic I think it's part of my job as their parent to educate them about what they eat can impact them for the rest of their lives. Nowadays there are so many keto options for treats that they don't have to miss out on pizza or ice cream or even brownies. Keto is sustainable for us because of how versatile it is and how I rarely feel restricted while living this way.
I wish I'd restricted sugar when raising my kids.
Hopefully with all the publicity she will get a lot more viewers that will look into feeding their children better foods and less sugar. If you look at pictures from the 60"s almost everyone was thin...then we started eating sugar cereals, cokes, and just more processed foods. America kept getting bigger and bigger....but there is so much money in pills and companies making these bad products. We don't need sugar. Our bodies are capable of making all the glucose we need (which isn't much). I hope it will wake up more parents and little by little we will have healthier children and healthier adults. Keep fighting the good fight!!! Keto on.
I chalk it up to ignorance. Most who feel the need to criticize don’t have real knowledge of what ketogenic eating is about. When I was still attending WW meetings (while following a keto diet), one leader said, in promotion of the WW Program, “Sure, you can lose weight on keto, but do you want to drink bulletproof coffee the rest of your life?” I said to my friends “That’s not a requirement of a keto diet.”
So true cheryl, so many misconceptions about keto floating around out there! -Em
I have four kids. The more keto they eat, the better they do. I am not strict for them, but they do not prefer sugar or carby foods when they choose their own foods. I will say that before my kids eat a doughnut or so that I made, they skeptically ask: “does this have cheese in it?!” 🤣
🤣🤣-Em
The older I get the less tolerance I have for all the lunatics that want to tell you what you can and can't eat and how to run your life. And the irony is that all of them have no idea how ignorant they are or what they're talking about.
Good video, you two inspire me to continue eating the ketogenic lifestyle. You guys look fabulous! You’re my goal🙂
I always say, walk in my shoes for a year, then you will have the right to complain.
Restrictions, discipline is essentially the same thing. You discipline yourself or someone else to follow a healthy diet to be healthy, it feels like in this country any type of discipline is “wrong “, so what’ is right then? Just let everything go, do what you want, behave how you want. Essentially what it comes down to.
I think the misconception most have on keto is they think it's a zero carb diet lol literally there are carbs in meats. We get enough carbs. They believe it at essential because this is what was hammered for years.
Its because of ignorance.. and people who troll others and always say stupid stuff are people that don't like themselves and doing this makes them feel better.
I agree that even children should follow a healthy lifestyle.I look at keto as not being a diet but healthy eating.I can’t understand that giving sugary foods to kids is supposed to be healthier than keto
Thank you both. Im back on keto and excited to lose 10 lb.
your biggest fan!! YOU TELLEM GIRLFRINDS!
You all are so right about when you tell people your doing “KETO” instead of saying low carb or a Diabetic diet which seems to be more “ agreeable” to people I guess...the word KETO just isn’t acceptable🤷🏻♀️it brings out anger in people...it’s so weird... but I too like Sarah, keto has set me FREE 🤗👍🏼💕

i do not want kids but i was on keto when i was a kid. i had bad seizures and nothing worked until drs put me on strict keto. note: i am still on keto (for seizures), but not the strict keto. anyway... as a kid on keto, no one question my (and my parents) methods. but keto was not popular at that time. i think (this is my thinking so do this with a grain of salt) when someone is new and/or they will set in their ways, it is vary hard to change. and they justify this by talking bad to the newest/popular diet trend. in that case it is keto and vegans.
I remember as a kid Mom made us peppers and eggs or eggplant sandwiches…..we ate so much fresh seafood!
My three kids and i love eating keto and are thriving!
The first time I try keto is on 1999, back then everting is so simple and easy
Wow. Can’t believe she’s the focus of an article. I follow her and comment often to give her positive feedback and refute the haters and idiots. I sent Dr. Berry a message about what was happening and saw (after the fact) that she did an IG live with him. Very cool!!
The latest Coke commercial says.... basically..... eat & drink whatever you want, whenever you want! If that's not crazy insane, then nothing is. If you shine a light on the diet of those naysayers you'll find some awful food and dietary habits.
When I think back to how I ate as a child, Keto would have been 10000000% better. There is nothing wrong with a diet that eliminates sugar and carbs that turn into sugar. No one needs to eat sugar for any reason.
I do keto. I sill do carbs… from veggies..not bread or cereal!
