Keto Roadblocks
A Keto For Women Video Series
For those ladies not yet reaping the keto benefits…
even though you’re in ketosis.
Watch these quick lessons to determine some roadblocks that may be stalling your keto progress.
#1 – Blood Sugar
The swings in your blood sugar, even when in ketosis, could be keeping you stuck. And, it’s an issue you may not even know you’re dealing with because your doctor isn’t running one critical test to give you all of the information you need. Learning more about where your blood sugar stands is an important piece of information we should all know about ourselves.
#2 – Your Metabolism
If you come from a past of low-calorie diets and restriction, your metabolism probably suffered in the process. This is the typical case of a diet “working” until it doesn’t—the body downregulates its function to compensate with the lowered amount of energy coming in. Weight loss stalls and weight gain occur, even when you’re doing everything “right”. Keto can help boost your metabolism back up IF you let it.
#3 – Hormonal Imbalance
You can be doing everything right, but if your hormones are out of balance, nothing will work. Testing your hormones is the BEST way to truly understand your body. This is something I offer in the Happy Hormones Project, a small group functional lab testing class specifically for Fat Burning Females—those women who have gone through my flagship course, The Fat Burning Female Project.
#4 – Your Lifestyle
What you’re putting on your plate is only a small portion of your life! There are so many other variables that could be causing your body to stay stuck in a stressed out place, making all of your efforts much harder to realize.
#5 – Food Sensitivities
It is SO common for women to start eating more of the foods they are sensitive to when they start a ketogenic diet without even knowing it! Looking into your gut health and food sensitivities if keto isn’t working for you could be the one missing piece of information you need to turn a corner. I perform this testing on Fat Burning Females in my class the Good Gut Project. It is a small group functional lab testing class for those women who have gone through the Fat Burning Female Project and want to expand on their health journey from there.
#6 – Eating The Wrong Macros For You
If you’ve been following typical keto macros perfectly and not feeling great, maybe it’s because those particular macros don’t work for YOU. It’s important to find the version of keto that works for you and you can make a lifestyle. This is something I teach how to do in The Fat Burning Female Project and talk about ALL the time on my podcast, The Keto For Women Show, because it really is THAT important.
#7 – Protein Intake
One step to finding out the right macros for you is experimenting with protein intake. This one is so important it deserves its own video. It is an important nutrient and finding your goldilocks zone of protein will make all the difference to your version of keto.
#8 – Toxic Overload
If your body is toxic and liver overburdened, it’s going to be hard for anything to make you feel better. Taking steps to clear your life of toxins could be the missing piece you haven’t yet thought about.
#9 – Restricting Calories
If your keto diet includes skipping meals and eating less overall food, you may be causing more damage to your body than good. As a woman, getting enough nutrients—both macro and micro —is the key to creating and maintaining a healthy body. Lowering food intake is NOT recommended as part of a healthy ketogenic diet for women. This is the basis for the Fat Burning Female Project that makes it a truly life-changing, health-gaining program.
#10 – Lack Of Movement
Not enough women are taking their fitness routine seriously and that desperately needs to change. Please don’t get frustrated with your body when you haven’t yet addressed your need to build muscle and strengthen your cardiovascular system.
