My Story
Marie Schneider
Certified Ketogenic Living Coach
A Pilates client of mine mentioned to me that she and her husband were doing a Keto Diet, and both of them were losing weight, feeling better, looking better AND were enjoying the food! Hmmm…you mean no rabbit food?? I was intrigued needless to say. I had a few pounds to lose so I thought Id give it a try. I began reading, collecting information and attempting to navigate my way around this diet. Not as easy as I thought. BUT I truly believed in the science and the principals and was determined to make it work. Not to mention that my own Doctor had been preaching low carb diets since the day I met her! My determination carried me through the next six months and BINGO it started working. I was not shocked when I started losing weight, but it was the other benefits that I was not expecting! Sleep was better, the little aches and pains I had been having we NO LONGER even there. PLUS I started getting “stars” at my Doctors office for excellent bloodwork!! AND the biggy was I WAS NOT HUNGRY!!! REALLY!! So very quickly, the Keto Diet was no longer a diet for me, but it became a LIFESTYLE. One that 3 and a half years later I am enjoying and even more passionate about than in the beginning!! In 2019, I decided to persue Certification and now I am a Certified Keto Lifestyle Coach and SO excited to help YOU achieve your Keto goals!
What Exactly is the Keto Diet?
The Keto Diet is a low carb, moderate protein and higher fat diet! Oh no! The F word! Fat is NOT the villan it has been made out to be…on the contrary. In actuality, eating too many carbs and sugars are what is causing most of the problems and weight gain people experience. Our goal on the Keto diet is to cause your body to become “adapted” to burning fat for fuel; fat adapted, by eating more fat and less carbs. The key here is LESS CARBS…. Let’s compare….
The Standard American Diet (SAD) is loaded with carbs and sugar and forces your body to burn glucose for fuel. After eating a carb loaded meal, you will notice not too long after, you are hungry again and need to reach for more carbs. Fat is a much more efficient fuel than glucose.
“Keto” is short for Ketones, which are by products created when the body breaks down fat for energy instead of glucose, which comes from carbs and sugars. When we are running on Ketones, we are in “ketosis”.
