A Dietitian’s Journey
A Dietitian’s Journey (Part 1) is my personal account following a low carbohydrate and ketogenic diet to improve my weight and my health. It began March 5, 2017 when I was obese, had type 2 diabetes for 8 years, very high blood pressure, and abnormal cholesterol and triglycerides and concluded March 5, 2019. I maintained my weight-loss until becoming severely ill in June 2022 and that’s where A Dietitian’s Journey – Part 2 begins.
