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 allow discussions in the comments section of each post, but be advised that any inappropriate or off-topic comment will not be approved.

Pork Chorizo Frittata

Usually sausage has added ingredients, like sugar, so when I found fresh and clean pork chorizo at my butcher's counter, I immediately grabbed some.

I cooked 1 lb. of chorizo in a cast iron skillet, along with some onions, peppers and garlic. I also added zucchini slices to this frittata. I seasoned it well with salt and pepper.

In a separate bowl, I mix up 6 eggs and, once the chorizo is done cooking, I pour the eggs over it. I put the skillet in the oven at 350 F and once the eggs puff up, I can enjoy. This meal is for two.
