Shane Rogers<p>Six years ago today, my wife and I took a pretty huge step for us and started the <a href="https://social.lol/tags/keto" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>keto</span></a> lifestyle.</p><p>Six years has gone by pretty quickly, so did dropping about 150 pounds of weight.</p><p>It's not "lost", I certainly don't miss it and have been maintaining things for the majority of that timeframe. </p><p>It took re-evaluating a lot of my behaviors and was an adjustment to how I (we) lived, but an amazing change.</p><p>It was - almost - too easy at first. It's been a struggle the past couple of years to remain in the so called <a href="https://social.lol/tags/wonderland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wonderland</span></a>, but I've done so. My "junk food" has changed from cookies and candy to nuts and cheese - still high calorie and (for me, anyhow) high carb. </p><p>Looking at old photos, old clothes, it's a reminder of where I don't want to be again. I love that I will be able to watch my children grow up. I love that I no longer have sleep apnea. I love that I can be more or less pain free. I love that I look much healthier.</p>
