Journey To Metabolic Health: Dill Pickle and Tomato Salad with Creamy Herb Goat Cheese

Welcome

My name is Gina and I would like to welcome you to my blog!

On this blog, I not only share the dietary and lifestyle approach which reversed my metabolic disease and achieved my weight loss, but I also debunk many misconceptions surrounding obesity and its treatment.

I am 5'5" and was weighing 300 lbs., at my heaviest. I lost a total of 180 lbs. I went through several phases of low carbohydrate dieting, until I found what worked best and that is what I share on this blog. Once on a carbohydrate restricted diet, along with intermittent fasting, I dropped all of the weight in a little over two years time.

My weight loss was achieved without any kind of surgery, bariatric or cosmetic. I also did not take any weight loss medications or supplements. I did not use any weight loss program. This weight loss was solely the result of a very low carbohydrate, whole foods based diet, along with daily intermittent fasting and exercise.

I was able to find dill pickles at my local farmer's market, with no sugar or other preservatives added. They are crunchy and very refreshing, perfect for a summer salad to accompany any meal. You can have them with a bit of mayonnaise on top.

Don't throw out your pickle juice. You can freeze it to make popsicles and beat the summer heat without the sugar. Dill pickles are a great way to get added salt into your diet.
