Thank you to the Abe’s Amble peeps for the photos. I can hardly believe that’s us! So thankful for this low carb, high fat, ketogenic way of eating. We eat well, we don’t worry about diabetes or fat pants anymore, and we’re on a mission to spread the message...
Mark’s 2 year ketoversary happened this week! I’m so proud of him. We celebrated with bacon of course 🙂 People who say this way of eating isn’t sustainable just don’t understand what a powerful why can do. If you know the quality of your life depends on what you...
Well, a year and a half low carb/keto. I wonder when I’ll stop counting?? In some ways, it seems like yesterday that I saw that first facebook post that sent me off in this direction. It was a life-changing moment. In other ways, it’s starting to feel like ....

So here we are ten months later. I’ve lost 63 pounds and we’ve just survived our first no-candy Halloween. I didn’t miss the candy. But I did miss seeing our kids’ friends’ kids trick or treating at our front door. Next year I’ll find some non-candy treats to hand...
The year 2016 is going down as our Keto discovery year. Mark’s recovery from diabetes and high blood pressure has been incredible. He’s down to one med for his blood sugar and off blood pressure meds entirely. I’ve lost 55 pounds and am off all anti inflammatory meds for...
One of Mark’s favorites: carne asada with scrambled eggs & cheese @ Boone’s Wings made here at home, which which became a highlight of our summer here at Canada Garden. We pressure cook (slow cook or oven roast...
We went to breakfast at Boone’s with friends this morning. We used to love their wagon wheel pancakes & green-onion-garlic hash rounds. Sigh. But we’re doing so well with our weight loss, feeling good, and Mark’s blood sugars have never been lower. So. Now we have huge omelets–meat lover’s...
