My Transformation - Part 4 - Presto - Surviving the Potato Diet & Transitioning to Keto

Over the course of several videos, which I'll release weekly, I'll discuss my transition from a physical and emotional dumpster fire to where I am today. I'll talk about my relationship with food and alcohol, my failed diet attempts over the years, and the impact of being overweight or obese most of my adult life. I'll describe how I settled on keto as my diet/lifestyle and some of the "life hacks" I've used to look, feel, and perform better at age 51 than I have since college. In this forth episode, I'll talk about about Penn Gillette's book, "Presto" and how following Penn's example I lost 36 lbs in 8 weeks. I'm not trying to sell anyone on what he (and I) did -- I'm simply explaining the process, the lessons I learned from it, and what I believe were the benefits for me. I also talk about how a book about veganism led me to keto. 📧 Subscribe to the Serious Keto weekly newsletter and never miss a video or special announcement: https://seriousketo.myflodesk.com/new...

Neither is cheap, but I don't regret purchasing either (despite the mixed reviews on Amazon).
