When I slipped a disc last year, I knew I had to do something radical given I was going to be sedentary for so long.
I did a mixture of mostly clean keto and intermittent fasting. It really worked -- even doing
nothing at the gym, recovering, and working a desk job -- I still got down to my target weight.
I'm becoming more and more convinced that real weight loss happens in the kitchen, and exercise is more for health and well-being but cannot be relied on to keep off the pounds.
