I know it's for me.
I know it's not for everyone.
But it is for me.
I actually love eating ultra low carb.
I love when I have a meal and it's so delicious it doesn't seem like diet food at all.
And I'm completely full/satisfied afterwards.
I love when I'm caking on butter and pouring heavy cream on my vegetables
and I'm like...ya this is my kind of diet food...ha
I don't think I could ever go back to a low fat diet.
It's bland, and unfulfilling for me!
Protein and fatty goodness is so savory and satisfying.
I love how I never feel super hungry.
I don't get that.... I'm starving feeling.
Don't get me wrong I get hungry, but never starving.
I don't get that....my stomach is rumbling I've got to eat now feeling.
There are days I feel munchie,
So I munch.
I love how if I feel hungry, I eat without feeling guilty.
I love how I get a night of eating the carby foods I love and crave and it helps me lose fat.
And I never feel guilty for eating those carb filled foods like
cake, cookies, ice cream, donuts, rice crispy treats ect.
I seriously can't say enough good things about this way of eating.
I love it!
Most of the time yes.
Because like I said I love this way of eating!
BUT
At that time I couldn't even think diet or exercise.
I had gained 20 lbs in a matter of 6 months!
Life can just get you down.
It's part of this life's process, I get it.
And I'm a stronger, more understanding person for it.
So where did I go from here?
It's a frustrating moment when you realize what you are eating is making you feel terrible!
I didn't want quit my bad eating habits.
I remember feeling like,
I want to just eat ice cream and cookies all the time and feel good and happy!
But eating ice cream and cookies all the time was making me depressed and angry.
I was tired all the time.
I woke up every morning feeling weighed down, like I could barely move.
I felt sick and icky.
I hated how I felt and I had no clothes to wear on top of it because I had gained too much weight!
I had all these clothes in my closet and they were all way to tight. Ugh!
So the result.... my body wasn't happy and I wasn't happy.
I had to make a change.
I couldn't go on living like that.
I felt lost.
How did I forget how good I felt before?
It felt hazy.
Or really it felt like too much work to change the terrible habits I was in.
But I knew I had to make a change.
Like I said,
I wasn't happy.
And I really wanted to have my happy self back.
Then one day I had a conversation with my husband.
He had gained weight with me during that 6 months.
He wasn't feeling good or healthy either.
And his clothes where tight too!
We decided then and there to get back on Carbnite.
Funny how clothes can be the deciding factor! haha
And lost weight.
I think I lost 5 lbs and my husband lost 8 lbs.
Great right?
I think so.
It felt good and right.
No more waking up feeling heavy and weighed down.
Every morning waking up and feeling light /and ready for the day.
And then exercise was the following step for me.
I got my diet under control started feeling better,
and I naturally wanted to get back in the gym.
This is an all around plus for me.
Carbnite changes my life.
I find I'm a better mom,
I have more energy,
my house is cleaner,
and my kids and husband are happier.
All of which make me happier!
Which is also motivates me to keep sticking to carbnite.
This is why I love carbnite,
and why I keep going back to it!
I'm just one person but, I'm a wife, a mom, a daughter, a sister, and a friend.
And because of The Carbnite Solution I can be all of these aspects of me in such a better way.
I am so grateful to have found something that truly works for me.
I'm grateful to people like +DH Kiefer who are trying to help people to healthier.
And for me healthier makes me happier.
And no I have not been paid to write anything about carbnite.
I just want to be able to help those who are like me.
Normal people.
And maybe this will help you want to get healthier and happier too.
