The Science
Ketosis is a natural metabolic state that your body enters when it doesn't have enough carbohydrates to burn for energy, so it starts breaking down fats instead. When you're in ketosis, your liver converts fats into ketones which become the body's primary fuel source, you can check your ketone count with keto test strips, the darker the colour on the test marker, the more fat you are burning, this will keep you motivated & focused. This process can help with weight loss because it forces your body to burn stored fat for energy rather than relying on sugars from carbs. As a result, many people following a ketogenic diet experience rapid weight loss. However, it's important to note that being in a state of ketosis isn't necessarily a guarantee of weight loss - you still need to consume fewer calories than you burn to see results, combined with exercise. And while some people swear by the keto diet for shedding pounds, ( mainly water loss in the first 3 days, NOT fat), others find it difficult to maintain long-term due to its restrictive nature. Ultimately, whether or not ‘Ketosis’ helps you lose weight depends on various factors such as your individual metabolism and overall lifestyle choices.
To understand this process, you need to research into the science & experiment with recipes to see what works for you, Just remember, 'Keto' does actually work, I have followed a 'Keto' diet for over 30yrs.
Enjoy your journey!
A ketogenic diet – or keto diet – is a low carb, high fat diet. It can be effective for weight loss and certain health conditions, which I have been following for the past 20 years.
Imagine a diet you can cook with butter and have a ‘Fry Up’ every day! No, I couldn’t believe it either, so I thought, try all this ‘Protein’ and ‘Fat’ for a week, what harm could it do?? 30 years on, I am so glad I took the plunge! Myth's about this type of diet producing ‘high cholesterol’, well I can say that mine is a little on the low side, and I have never had any issues with cholesterol.
Anyway, I decided to finally do something for me, why not pass on all my knowledge and experience to others?, who are skeptical like I was, not wanting to take the plunge, feeling unsure whether this is the right way to go, or enrol in any of the other ‘Diet Programs’ out there.
All I can say is, my advice, give it a go, yes really, this works! Make sure to follow instructions, all allowed ingredients, and take note of the 'hidden sugars', learking where you wouldn’t think they would be! You will feel more 'energetic' and less 'hungry,' I promise, along with moderate exercise you will see thrilling results!
A ‘Ketogenic diet should consist of about 60–80% fat, 10–30% protein, and no more than 5–10% — or 20–50 grams — of carbs per day. Focus on high-fat, low-carb foods like eggs, meats, dairy and low-carb vegetables, as well as sugar-free beverages. Be sure to limit highly processed foods and Tran’s fat’s.
My Recommended Products Which I Use.
My advice on using the Eveline Creams, measure the area’s of your body where you will be applying these creams, after one week, check your measurement’s, you will be surprised at the readings! Apply all creams in a circular motion over the problem area’s. These creams are ‘Fantastic’ and actually do what they say advertised.
Teamed Cellulite Massager…… Go careful on your first use, it’s easy to get carried away and press too firmly than you should, it can cause bruising and sensitivity, but used correctly in conjunction with the cream you will soon be noticing a significant change. As with all products, it’s vital to use on a regular, daily basis.
Apply once a day just before bed on your problem area’s, a ‘warming’ cream, work’s best on thighs, the hotter you feel, the more fat & cellulite it’s removing.
I definitely recommend combining this cream along with the ‘Night Lipo Shock Therapy’ for the first two weeks, this accelerates your results.
SLIM EXTREME 4D WARMING THERAPY
Another ‘warming’ cream. Apply twice a day on problem area’s, can be used all over the body (not the face)
This cream breaks down cellulite along with fat deposits creating a smoother skin appearance as well as improving blood flow.
SLIM EXTREME 4D SCALPEL CONCENTRATED SERUM
This is an extreme 'fat burner' I recommend you use at night on alternate nights combined with the Night Lipo Shock Therapy.
SLIM EXTREME 4D SCALPEL TURBO CELLULITE REDUCER
This cream is especially designed to sculpt area’s along with firming properties. Again, apply twice a day in most ‘slack’ parts of the body
This cream helps smooth out stretch marks and prevents the re occurring
I love this bit of kit! DO NOT get carried away on first use and press too firmly, can cause bruising and sensitivity. Use twice daily if you can for improved results, before you apply any creams.
Fantastic Scale, easy too pair, elegant looking, battery lasts forever, this measures all sorts of body details, more than you ever thought existed, just make sure you weigh yourself only once a week.
