My journey to Ketosis started in 2015. We had an energetic two year old and Chrissy aka Keto Boss Babe was a few weeks pregnant with Julianna. I was an airline pilot with a crazy, unpredictable schedule. I was eating out of hotels, airports, and airplane food… not the best combo!
We were exhausted and unhealthy. Something had to change.
A friend called me out of the blue and said “what do you know about Ketones and Ketosis?”
I jumped in with both feet, started cooking Keto and we started a Recipe Blog! Check it out!
The Ketogenic lifestyle may be revolutionary to some, but it's been around for centuries! Our ancestors ate a high fat diets of butter and meat, intermittent fasted when food was scarce, and were often in ketosis. The availability and types of foods have changed drastically the last 50-100 years as we moved into a highly processed grain and sugar society. Suddenly we found walking out of Drs with prescriptions that appeared suspiciously just as our our diets changed.
I was a processed carb lover who thought cereal was heart healthy, juice was an essential nutrient, and turkey bacon (although I hated it) was in my freezer. News flash: those foods aren’t healthy! I jumped into Keto with both feet (the rest of my family waded in slowly!) and continued to research the lifestyle as I made changes to what was in our kitchen. My meals now focus on a native diet with an emphasis on low carb, high fat. The result? The Keto Dad page shares my journey of being home with my kids, cooking real, keto foods, and living life to the fullest!
I was tired. My wife was tired. We had a two year old who had just moved to her toddler bed and decided sleep was for the birds. My wife was pregnant with our second and we were both working full time AND owned side businesses.
Now we’re in the best health of our life. We both initially lost weight, and then added on muscle as we started working out regularly.
Ketones have changed our lives, given us more energy, mental clarity, a better mood (to love our children through sleepless nights and busy days!), and fat loss. And, they've enabled us to quit our jobs and share Keto full time!
Our whole family is involved. Cooking can be one of the hardest things to do with the kids (oh my, the mess!) and one of the more rewarding. Cooking with kids builds lots of skills - patience, following instructions, math, reading, science, and it builds a positive appreciation for food.
My daughter, Keto Callie, used to be a picky eater. Now that she's involved, she's far more likely to try different foods and love the foods that are good for her! Little sister, Keto Julianna, is right behind her!
Through this journey I have found that the most rewarding experiences come with joining others. My favorite days are the ones spent talking with others, encouraging new lifestyle changes, celebrating successes, and getting back on track. I don't have a professional kitchen, camera crew, or staff...It's just me and my wife in our kitchen surrounded by the craziness of life!
We have 100lb club - people who have lost over 100lbs and are keeping it off.
I've met people with T2 diabetes who are able to reduce their insulin and other medications because eating Keto helps manage their blood sugars.
I met countless moms and dads who love the better energy and mood they get from feeling GOOD and eating healthy.
