Hello Keto!
š„ Iām Going Back to KetoāAnd Hereās Why Every āLippy Ladyā Should Be Paying Attention
There comes a moment in every healing journey where you realizeā¦
Youāre not done yet.
Not because youāve failed.
Not because your body is broken.
But because your body is asking for another level.
And right nowāthis is mine.
The Truth About Lipedema That No One Talks About
Lipedema is not just āstubborn fat.ā
It is inflamed, hormonally sensitive, metabolically active tissue that responds to:
⢠insulin
⢠estrogen
⢠inflammation
⢠stress
⢠toxins
Which means this:
š If those systems are off⦠lipedema tissue grows.
š If those systems are optimized⦠lipedema tissue can calm down.
And one of the most powerful levers we have?
Nutrition.
Why Iām Going Back to Keto (and Leaning Carnivore)
The researchāand more importantly, clinical experienceācontinues to show:
š Ketogenic-based diets are one of the most effective tools for lipedema.
Why?
Because they:
⢠lower insulin
⢠reduce inflammation
⢠stabilize blood sugar
⢠shift the body into fat-burning mode
⢠calm hormonal signaling to fat cells
And lipedema tissue?
It is extremely sensitive to insulin and sugar spikes.
So if I want to shrink this tissue naturallyā¦
I need to create an environment where my body says:
āWe are safe. We can burn.ā
My Personal Turning Point
If youāve followed me for a while, you know this part of my storyābut it matters here.
My lipedema didnāt just āappear.ā
It ignited.
After:
⢠a surgical procedure (varicose vein stripping)
⢠a massive life stressor (leaving my first real doctor job)
⢠a toxic relationship
⢠environmental exposures (hello, mold and water damage)
My body went into full survival mode.
And in just 3 months⦠I gained 65 pounds.
While training for an Ironman.
Let that sink in.
This was never about discipline.
This was about a body under attack.
The Part No One Prepares You For
Even after you start healingā¦
Itās not always linear.
Many of my warriorsāand I include myself in thisānotice something:
š With each exposureā¦
š With each stressorā¦
š With each hormonal shift (hello, menopause)...
It can feel harder to get back to baseline.
But hereās the truth:
Just because itās harder doesnāt mean itās impossible.
It just means we have to be more intentional.
My āAll-Inā Protocol Right Now
Because I have access to tools most people donātā¦
I am going all in.
Not just for me.
But for every woman sitting there thinking:
āWhy is my body doing this to me?ā
Hereās what Iām doing:
š„ Nutrition
⢠Ketogenic / carnivore-based approach
⢠Lowering insulin and stabilizing blood sugar
⢠Creating a true fat-burning environment
𧬠Hormone Optimization
⢠Supporting hormonal balance
⢠Reducing signals that drive fat storage
āļø CryoSkin
⢠Every 2 weeks
⢠Freezing and breaking down inflamed fat tissue
⢠Supporting physical reduction of lipedema areas
š§ Detox + Lymph Flow
⢠Sauna
⢠Cold exposure
⢠Lymphatic support
⢠Flowpresso
⢠Movement
Because if we break fat down but donāt move it outā¦
We stay stuck.
š Peptides
⢠Supporting fat metabolism
⢠Enhancing cellular repair
⢠Improving mitochondrial function
š§āāļø Nervous System + Stress Work
⢠Daily meditation
⢠Active manifestation
⢠Protecting my peace
Because stress alone can keep the body in fat-storage mode.
ā¤ļø Life Balance
⢠Time with my husband
⢠Creating joy
⢠Remembering why I do this in the first place
Because healing isnāt just about protocols.
Itās about living.
Why Iām Doing This Before Surgery
This summer, I may travel to Greece for surgical treatment of lipedema.
But before I make that decisionā¦
I want to know:
š How much can my body do on its own when given the right environment?
š How much of this tissue can I calm, shrink, or reverse naturally?
š What is possibleānot just for meābut for my patients?
Because if I can figure this outā¦
It changes everything for so many women.
To My Lippy Ladies (and My Mystery Illness Warriors)
If you feel like:
⢠your body is out of control
⢠nothing you do is working
⢠youāve been told itās your fault
⢠youāre exhausted from trying
I need you to hear this:
Your body is not broken.
It is responding to signals.
And when we change those signalsā¦
The body can change too.
The Future of Healing Isnāt āTry Harderā
Itās:
š Understand deeper
š Treat root cause
š Support the body
š Work WITH your biology
Not against it.
