I not only gained the feared \u201cfreshman 15,\u201d but my stomach was often a mess. There were days when intense nausea or intestinal pain would prevent me from going to class (or going out at all).<\/p>\n<p>Eventually I saw a doctor, who gave me <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/search?search=probiotics\">probiotics<\/a> to balance my gut, but he also recommended that I remove things from my diet, one by one, to determine the root cause of my digestive issues. Ultimately, the culprit turned out to be those heavy carbs I was eating.<\/p>\n<p>Together, we decided that I\u2019d start a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/2018\/03\/15\/healthy-keto-meal-plan\/\">keto diet,<\/a> which focuses on low-carb and higher fat intake. It also doesn\u2019t restrict the amount of food you eat\u2014it\u2019s not about calorie counting\u2014which was important to me. The goal of keto is to get into a metabolic state called <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/2018\/04\/26\/low-carb-side-effects\/\">ketosis,<\/a> which happens when the body is deprived of carbs and starts to break down stores of fat for energy.<\/p>\n<p>To start, I cut out potatoes, bread, rice, soda, cereal, and sugary sweets. (I\u2019ll be honest: I still miss those foods\u2014a lot.) I added <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/2018\/04\/26\/saturated-fats\/\">healthy fats<\/a>\u00a0(like avocados) and tons of protein-packed fish (like salmon, tuna, trout, and swordfish) to my diet.\u00a0I also upped my intake of specific veggies, such as Brussels sprouts, arugula, and bok choy. To get my pasta fix, I started making veggie noodles with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/2017\/09\/14\/healthy-comfort-foods\/\">spiralizer.<\/a><\/p>\n<!-- Shortcode [rr-products] does not match the conditions -->\n<p>Even though I was making strides in replacing my core foods, learning to count my carbs was certainly an obstacle in the beginning. Most people know that eating fried chicken or cheeseburgers all the time probably isn\u2019t good for you, but with keto, you have to get specific\u2014especially if you want to get into ketosis. For example, you have to be aware of your carbohydrate-to-fiber and natural sugar ratio. I don\u2019t exceed 30 grams of carbs per day. This is pretty challenging because hidden carbohydrates are everywhere.<\/p>\n<p>For the first few weeks, I constantly needed to pull up the approved keto diet list when grocery shopping. I&#8217;d often have to put things back on the shelf\u2014especially fruits, which I never realized were so high in sugar. But I eventually got into a routine with it.<\/p>\n<p>A lot of people were skeptical when they heard I was doing keto. They couldn\u2019t conceive of how a diet that allows you to eat a ton of protein and fat could possibly be healthy for you. (Hint: I do <em>not <\/em>eat bacon all day! I choose <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/2018\/05\/11\/trainers-protein-breakfasts\/\">clean proteins<\/a> and healthy fats.)<\/p>\n<p>What works for me is having a variety of clean snacks or small meals on-hand (like avocados, hard boiled eggs, celery and peanut butter, or tomatoes and blue cheese dressing) when I\u2019m hungry. It helps with the cravings\u2014and prevents me from reaching for an easy (and most likely carb-heavy) meal.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/2018\/03\/15\/healthy-keto-meal-plan\/\">Want To Try Keto? Here\u2019s What A Healthy Day Of Eating Fat Looks Like<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>To me, eating keto has become more than just a diet. It\u2019s a lifestyle.<\/p>\n<p>Even though keto can be pretty hard, it is rewarding: I lost 30 pounds in six months and my digestive problems have totally disappeared. I also have way more energy! Before going keto, I&#8217;d reached a point with my weight where I was lethargic and couldn&#8217;t do the things I wanted to do\u2014like take long walks with my girlfriend.<\/p>\n<p>The benefits of going keto, however, go well beyond the physical: I feel more in control of my wellness, I\u2019m way more creative about my food, and I\u2019m more mindful of my body and my time.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m always researching new and exciting meal options, which keeps keto from being boring or unsatisfying. (There&#8217;s usually a keto version of any recipe out there, and it can be a fun challenge to find it and make it.) I usually prep my meals on Sunday nights for the week ahead, which has allowed me to better budget my time (as a recent graduate student and full-time professional, it&#8217;s crucial.)<\/p>\n<p>Mostly, I am empowered by my own effort. There&#8217;s no quick and easy way to be healthy. <em>Choosing<\/em> to eat healthfully takes time and focus.<\/p>\n<p>These days, checking nutrition labels has become second nature to me, which is a game-changer. I\u2019ve never paid more attention to what I put in my body! It&#8217;s made me more mindful of the fact that quality really is more important than speed and ease.<\/p>\n<p>Like anything else, the more effort you put into keto, the better the overall results. I love knowing that the hard work I&#8217;m doing has a direct influence on my physical and mental wellbeing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Like a lot of people, I ate a ton of pasta and pizza during my college days.
