Low Carb / Paleo / Nutritional Ketosis / Grain-Free

By Roseywinter @roseywinter
Yay, I'm eating healthy again! Okay, so "healthy" can mean a lot of things... but basically I'm eating the way I used to, and the way I used to blog about. Paleo, low-carb, gluten-free, grain-free, refined sugar free, etc. At the moment the most accurate way to describe my diet ("diet" as in, what I eat... NOT "fad diet") is "nutritional ketosis" because I'm eating low carb with the intention of putting my body into ketosis (NOT "ketoacidosis" that's something totally different and unhealthy). To put it simply, I'm changing my body from sugar-burning into fat-burning.
I really miss eating this way, and I've pretty much neglected myself for a while. But now I'm back, and exercising again too, yay! So far I've lost almost 10 pounds in less than a week, which I'm happy about, but even more happy that I feel better. Before, I was still eating gluten-free, but definitely getting way too many carbs than I could handle, as well as sugar, which was still messing with my blood sugar and packing on the pounds. But now, with the carbs and sugar cut out, I have energy again! I'm not bloated all the time, either. :P
If you're interested in a better, more thorough explanation of nutritional ketosis, I love these videos:
