17 Incredible Keto Diet Before and After Pictures
17 Incredible Keto Diet Before and After Pictures
And so you've also probably heard that a keto diet is high-fat and that, depending on what keto plan you follow, you'll be eating 60 to 80 percent of your daily total calories from fat. Keto is a moderate-protein program, where the nutrient takes up about 20 percent of your daily calories. And, finally, keto is ultra-low carb; dietary prescriptions dictate to keep your carbohydrates low at 20 to 30 grams of carbs a day.
The name of the diet comes from the state of ketosis. A very-low-calorie diet can deplete your brain of glucose, which is its main and preferred fuel source. Because your body needs fuel to function, your brain will tap its reserve of ketones, compounds the liver creates from fat when blood insulin is low. This process is known as ketosis: It's like when a hybrid car runs out of gas and reverts to pure electricity.
It's a difficult diet, for sure, which is why a ketogenic diet is extremely challenging to maintain long-term. But that said, real people have undergone dramatic weight-loss transformations due to the ketogenic diet. If you're looking for inspiration to start your weight loss journey, or just looking for some proof that a keto diet can work, here's a round-up of 12 incredible before-and-after keto diet transformations.
These people show how amazing the popular ultra-low-carb, high-fat diet trend can be. Read their stories, get their advice, and take in their impressive photos.

Today is the day before my one year Keto Anniversary ❤️
I've never shared this, I seriously contemplated posting this, but today I will. On December 3rd of 2018, I had to have a D&C, I miscarried after 6 weeks. I felt as though my body betrayed me, I felt like it was my fault.
I didn't even want to be in that body anymore, I wanted to escape it and everything, including this earth. I was overwhelmed with darkness.
THIS was my rock bottom. Henry's first birthday was the following day on December 4th of 2018, I decided that day, I would change.
I would be different. I would be healthier, I would be happier, I would be stronger, I would be a person that Henry would be proud of.
When I woke up from anesthesia after the procedure, I decided I would take control in the most positive way. I would move forward without losing that part of me. I decided I wanted change.
I decided to be in the pictures. I decided to put effort into myself. I decided I would view the glass as half full and LIVE in the present because it's what I deserved, it's what my family deserved. For an angel that wasn't here and my sweet baby Henry who was.
I wanted to get rid of all the medications I was on, the unhealthy habits I was accustomed to, the toxic people I had in my life. I wanted to change for myself and for my family.
I'm so thankful for this Keto journey, I'm so thankful for the support, friendships and guidance in discovering this new chapter. This is my why.
Thank you for reading and thank you for being here for me, even if it's just online ❤️ If you're ever doubting if you can, I believe in you.
I truly believe in you. If I can do it, you can too.

I wore shorts once last year, i felt good because they were a size 16 I think, down from a size 20.
My size 2 shorts in the after picture are now too big. About a year between these pictures and at least 100lbs. I was working out, but @coach_jmo had just had the food conversation with me.
It was vacation time and I was sad about not being beach ready in a little over 3 months. 😂 I was still making bad choices to help me cope with my weight gain from Postpartum depression and anxiety. I was still eating horribly, with cheat weekends and lots of pizza. 😂
I still thought exercising was enough to help me reach my goals. Working out 7 days a week with my trainer and a Ketogenic diet have changed my life. Down from a size 18/20 to a Size 0/2, over 130 pounds, and over 115 inches. 🎉🙌🎊

efore I started keto.
feelings of fear, feelings of being discouraged or letting myself down again ... what if I fail at this like I have with every other thing I've tried the past 12 years.
Looking back a year ago on Mother's Day reflecting where I was then to where I am now not just my weight loss but also my mental state at the time.
Things were better but I was no where near where I am now.
The weight loss and drastically changing my eating habits have all contributed and I'm so thankful I made myself show up everyday.
So what if? What if I never gave myself the chance? I preach believing in yourself a lot because you are the only one who can push yourself to make the change.
No one else just you. Don't let the what's ifs hold you back. Believe in YOU. Show up for YOU.
Tip toe if you must but if it's something you want soooo bad ... everyday wake up and TAKE THAT STEP! It's worth it💕 Happy #transformationtuesday 🌸

Happy Transformation Tuesday 🤗🎉
I can honestly say a year ago, I never would've imagined surpassing my goal of a 50 lbs weight loss, but here I am 75 lbs lighter and feeling better than ever!
The girl on the left was ashamed of her body and would cover it up to make sure no one would see it.
The NEW girl on the right is confident, empowered, and STRONG! I feel so lucky to have a great support system around me and thank all of you who have reached out for advice or sent kind words 😊 Keep Calm and Keto On Friends!

Transformation Tuesday ✨✨
Where do I even begin ?! 23 years old on the left going through the motions of life — crying myself to sleep heartache after heartache — hardship after hardship. I didn't have an “easy” life growing up and food has been my comfort for as long as I can remember. The thing about life is that the heartaches and the hardships don't stop.
My idea of “healthy eating” was low fat — carby and full of sugar and maintaining my weight was never attainable. The first week I started the ketogenic diet I felt like I had been cured of an addition to sugar and grains. I've been living a ketogenic lifestyle for 2 years now and it's the best decision I've ever made.
I've been dealing with emotional eating my entire life even to this day! Every day is a struggle but you get to a point where you say enough is enough. Be better than falling victim to life's pain because life is TOO SHORT.
Losing my dad so suddenly to a stroke forever changed me. Every morning as a young teenager I'd watch him inject himself with insulin and he'd constantly remind me to take care of my health because he didn't want me to end up like him — with high blood pressure, diabetes and multiple heart surgeries. I was more depressed than I had ever been when he passed away and I made the decision to pull myself out of that. You can too. 💗

• {I HIT MY FIRST GOAL} •
On the first of this year I told myself, no more! This will be the year I reach my pre pregnancy weight.
I'm shaking just thinking about it. It took me 9 and half months to loose 57lbs but I freakin did and surpassed my pre pregnancy weight.
I have been writing this goal down every single day in my journal, talking about it, visualizing it and I can't believe I finally did it.
I have gone through some crazy stuff in the last nine months but it just goes to show, when you put your mind to something, it's not a matter of IF it will happen but WHEN.

After hitting my plateau for four months, it was so hard to stick to it.
But I'm so glad I tried supplementing with ketones because that last 23lbs came right off, sooo fast!
Next goal is to be in a healthy weight range for my Height.
Next goal is to be in a healthy weight range for my Height.
That means another 35lbs.
The goal is to be strong and healthy and I'm so excited to share this with you guys.

I was 1 month keto in that first pic and I had no clue how much shit was going to change for me. I said ok I guess I'm not eating carbs and saying no to cake and shit no really grasping the full extent of this lifestyle ..

but two months later I was practicing this ketogenic life easy! Like in my sleep easy! And that's how the weight fell off.
I was committed and ready for anything.
Almost two years later I still practice keto and even teeter more low carb because I am maintaining 😜 (a lil French fry here and there ain't hurt nobody) .

Transformation Tuesday.
I'm trying my damndest to cut down on carbs. To be honest, I really haven't been strict since hitting my first ketoversary in May. I was like “I lost 150lbs” and went straight into maintenance.
Part of me worries about loose skin -and part of me uses that as an excuse to be lax. I'll tell myself I don't want to rush so my body can catch up and hopefully reduce loose skin -aaaand, that's okay, but I * think * I want to pick back up again.
I will say, I cannot BELIEVE I eat the way I do without gaining weight.
That is completely new to me. I don't think I've ever eaten with such abandonment. Ever. And I haven't gained weight! I eat so many sweets and chocolates -I love the low-carb options available and I love that although I “fell off the wagon” for 6-7 months and basically ate whatever (keto food) I wanted (I do NOT eat keto sweets in moderation -I shove my face on the reg 😄), I didn't gain weight back.
I'm heartily comforted that maintenance and higher carb counts is not only feasible -but also quite enjoyable. I think this is possibly a sign my insulin resistance may be a thing of the past? Anywho, after 7 months of no restrictions, I'm debating tightening down the hatches again.
All in all, and I know this conflicts with the above, I'm actually pretty damn happy with my current weight. 😄 Maybe this is my new norm🤷♀️We'll see.
Anyone else struggling with maintenance and fluctuating goal weights? My initial goal weight was 175, and then moved to 200. I currently weigh 250lbs, fluctuating +/- 10lbs.

Transformation
💌It wasn't even my body that I hated, it was this overwhelming emptiness I couldn't seem to shake. Everyday was the same ... I had no goals, no momentum, no way to revel in my own strength ... or to celebrate myself.
If I could give the woman I used to be some hindsight advice I would tell her, “That's what you're missing sweet girl ... that's the longing you have in your soul.
You are not the enemy, your weight is not the problem ... it's a symptom. You've given up on life. You've let fear and anxiety and your skewed perception of what others think of you hold you back from truly living. Set goals that have nothing to do with weight loss.
Find joy in everything you are instead of dwelling on everything you aren't. Push your comfort zone until you struggle to find where it even ends. And quit waiting for someone or something to save you from yourself ... you are more than capable of being your own hero.
Try celebrating yourself as a whole person, unique and wonderfully made in so many ways ... so much more than a body. Once you do that ... the weight loss will follow ”♥ ️

Every year around the same time my mom and I take the kids to a local farm. I remember her taking that picture on the left and saying “OMG DELETE THAT!” She didn't.
That picture on the left popped up today from 3 years ago.
The right is from last week. Same farm. Same girl. New confidence.
There is roughly a 90 pound difference between these two photos and man these side by sides really keep me going. (Especially after my week of eating like 💩)

All I could do was pick out my flaws.

The picture on the right he randomly snapped on a walk we were taking. When I looked at the pictures later all I could see was happiness. No flaws. No depressed state.

Haven't shared one like this in a while. I was feeling down on myself and felt like I had made no progress.
-
But I looked back at the beginning of my keto journey on the left in 2018 (I was already down about 20lbs) and I see how much my body has changed over the last year and a half and I'm blown away.
-
I'm not at my goal yet. I'm not even sure what that goal is yet. But I'm miles from where I started.
-
My 🔥 has been reignited and I can't wait to see how my progress continues!
-
Down 9 lbs in the last week y'all. It's insane 😳 but I feel amazing. So grateful for the energy and focus I'm feeling these days. I am ON POINT and embracing what works for me. -

I couldn't figure out what wasn't working! Weren't these healthy foods? It wasn't until a year ago, when I first heard the word keto, that it finally all clicked.
it feels so good to break the yo-yo diet cycle and finally find a truly healthy, sustainable way of eating. .

🥰TRANSFORMATION STORY PLEASE READ 🥰
I used to be severely overweight for a period of my life (probably considered obese).
Some people have known me a long time and have seen my #progress , but some only know me now and don't know what I used to be.
There are a few years of my life with zero to very few pictures of me because I hated the way I looked. After getting out of a toxic relationship (when I ate my feelings out of depression), I was able to lose a little bit on my own by focusing on #me and getting back into activities I loved (musical theater) and overall being happy again .
But I was still overweight and sort of hit a plateau, so I gave up on trying because nothing seemed to be working. It wasn't until October of 2016 that I learned about the #ketogenic lifestyle and started that way of eating and was able to lose 10 pounds in 2 months, just from making better food choices.
In January of 2017, I began a fitness regime, going to the #gym about 4-5 days a week doing a mix of weight lifting and cardio. My plan was to hit my #goal weight within one year. (To be honest, I didn't think I was going to do it, but told myself I'd be happy if I got close.)
It's been one year since I did my first #workout on my own and I am so excited to say that I did it...I HIT MY GOAL WEIGHT!!! From June 2015 to now, I have lost about 76 pounds/7 dress sizes and I'm a happier, healthier, and stronger version of myself than I ever was before!
It's not just about the number and how I look, but I've learned that I need to take care of my body from the inside out for #health reasons too. I now have more energy and I feel absolutely amazing. I finally feel like the version of myself that I always envisioned in my head.
This has been a long and hard #journey and there were many times I thought I might give up.
I'm sharing these pictures not out of vanity, but because I'm just so #happy that I did it and I want people to know that you can do whatever you set your mind to!! 💪🏼
