The Keto Reset Diet: Reboot Your Metabolism in 21 Days and Burn Fat Forever
Mark Sisson - 2017
Going “keto” by eating high fat, low-to-moderate protein and low-carb foods enables you to break free from the disastrous effects of carbohydrate dependency by resetting your metabolism and promoting metabolic flexibility—where your body learns to burns fat instead of sugar for energy, even when you go off plan. Unlike many other ketogenic programs that require challenging restrictions and deprivation or offer misinformation, Mark Sisson, bestselling author of The Primal Blueprint and publisher of the #1 paleo blog MarksDailyApple.com, presents a unique two-step, scientifically validated approach for going keto the right way. He first reveals the real secret to rapid and sustained weight loss, which is in becoming "fat-adapted" before entering full nutritional ketosis. This process allows your body to learn to burn fat more efficiently, resulting in increased and sustained weight loss over the long-term. It takes as little as 21-days to reprogram your metabolism to burn fat for fuel, by ditching processed grains, sugars, and refined vegetable oils in favor of nutrient-dense, high fat, primal/paleo foods--and you'll see immediate results. Next, you’ll fine-tune with Intermittent Fasting and then foray into full ketogenic eating for a further weight loss boost and improved health. With The Keto Reset Diet, you can eat to total satisfaction by enjoying rich, high-satiety foods, and even weather occasional slip-ups. You’ll use keto as a lifelong tool to stay trim, healthy, energetic, and free from the disastrous health conditions caused by the typical American diet. With step-by-step guidance, daily meal plans and a recipe section with over 100 delicious keto-friendly recipes, this is the definitive guide to help the keto-beginner or the experienced health enthusiast understand the what, why, and how to succeed with ketogenic eating.

After nine years of chasing and three years of being her buddy behind closed doors, she gave me the proverbial boot. I suppose I shouldn’t have taken life with a grain of salt and realized we’d have nothing more than a good time in the bedroom and a few laughs with friends. She was it for me…or so I thought. Razz Thinking I’d have the life I always dreamed of by the time I turned twenty-five and having the exact opposite could discourage a weaker woman, but not me. I don’t have the dream job, the house with the picket fence or the kids to fill the backyard with laughs, but I do have two steady incomes, an apartment I share with my best friend and a healthy sex life. What more could I ask for? I wanted him. After watching the boy I grew up with gradually turn into a man, my crush knew no bounds. He never really saw me. I was just the girl who he picked on and took up for when anyone but him picked on me. I was the girl on the sidelines watching him fall madly in love with a woman who never returned the gesture. Now she’s devastated his life and made him second guess himself. Now I’m the one he wants to fall back on but I’ve been there done that and got the scars on my heart to prove it. He was blind but now he sees, but that’s not enough for me to let him heal the wounds that he’s inflicted.
