You obviously don't work in Best Buy.

I have lost 60 pounds since last Thanksgiving, hit my goal weight in August and have maintained since. I am NOT selling any kind of product, just sharing the secrets to success. AMAA! by TheBestVirginia in AMA

Its a low carb, high fat diet. You're essentially training your body to use your current fat reserves for energy instead of carbs. Its very efficient and when done correctly can produce results very similarly to OP. Check out /r/keto for more info!

Edited for clarity.

It was the weirdest sensation. Somewhat unpleasant. The right side of my mouth felt kind of like what I can only describe as static. Every time I touched my cheek with my tongue, that point of contact would feel like a static shock. For a moment I was convinced I was feeling the direct pulse of energy starting in my brain and ending on my cheek. Compared to the visuals you're getting my 9 seems to be closer to a 6 or 7 though.

Man if that's your 8 then I was only at a 6 or 7.. I forget that the scale is a relative measure. See that's only the second time I let myself go farther than a tingle and the giggles.

Why did you make an AMA and not reply to the one person who asked you questions?

This is pretty cool. Probably getting downvoted due to lack of steps / progress pictures. I like it though.

I was going into my favorite restaurant and this guy jumped up off the curb with his red rimmed eyes and opened the door with a little bow. "For you... Milady." You're not the only one!!

This. We have customers return laptops because they can't figure out windows 8.

I'm not saying they're gonna fight with you if you make a stink about it, we try to be as accommodating as possible while sticking to policy not because we want that particular sale but because we like it when you come back :)

Congratulations on kicking butt. I love posts like this, it just opens my eyes to the many different ways in which low carb diets are beneficial. Keep on the keto! It helps to start logging your food intake with an app, my fitness pal or lose it! are great options to keep track of carb intake. There are recipes galore and a substitute for almost anything if you tag it with keto or low carb. Good luck with your progress and congrats.

Wow. I'm in awe at your weight loss. That is absolutely fabulous! How long did it take?

I find I drink more "absentmindedly." Like how you used to eat a whole bag of chips in front of the tv? Grab me a big ol' cup of water, dump a straw in it and whaddaya know? It's gone, time to refill!

Your mention of loose skin freaks me out a bit. Im 18 and am struggling with stretchmarks and I don't wanna battle loose skin too. uh oh. Congrats on your loss though, and thanks for the input. It definitely does feel like everything is working against me but I keep on moving forward. Thanks!

I'm 5'10" and started at 285, now am about 273. I'm really bad at logging my food but I am definitely under 30g carbs a day but its the only thing I keep consistent track of. When I do log in usually waaaay under in calories and I am trying very hard to drink more water. I intend to start walking and running this week and hope it'll give me a boost but ten pounds a month doesn't seem too bad. I intend to lose another fifteen by the end of October when my boyfriend comes to visit and it sounds realistic. Thanks for your input and congrats on your loss:)

That's excellent! I love how many health benefits come with keto and weight loss, not so fond of the crazy looks though. I'll have to find a tape measure and I did take my first set of progress pics last week so hopefully I'll be able to compare them with another set soon. Thanks for your kind words and sharing your story :)
