Monday was my birthday and I turned 55 years old! How do I feel about that? Fantastic!
I might look like I'm 55 with some gray hair and a few
wrinkles, but I sure don't feel that old.
I feel better than I did fifteen years ago and younger too. I am so grateful I finally decided to get on board
with the Keto lifestyle and turn my
health around.
It amazes me how much strength, endurance and energy I have
these days. My mind is clear and I
function so much better. And although
one can never completely eliminate stress
from their life I do find myself feeling far less anxious as well as having fewer
periods of extreme stress and anxiety. I'm
pretty confident it is because I handle things so much better than I used to. And I don't feel it as much.
All of my clothes fit, in fact some are a little big on me,
and I currently weigh only five more pounds than I did when I was a senior in
high school. I have no complaints about
that! My blood pressure is within the
normal range as well as my lipids and glucose levels. I have made some amazing progress in the last
year and a half.
Never in a million years would I have thought that simply cleaning
up my diet would have such a dramatic impact on my life. But it did!
Going Keto gave me my life back, it gave me hope and it gave me a quality
of life I'd only dreamed of.
Turning 55 didn't bother me one bit!
Happy Birthday! I am so glad you are doing so well. I have been reading "The Okinawa Program". I have had the book for years but never got around to it. My goodness, I should have read it years ago. More veggies and less sugar. Lots of other things too for head and heart. Enjoy life and don't isolate yourself. I can do it. Your keto lifestyle has also been encouraging. We are getting older but also better. Happy Birthday and many, many more!
