Back on the keto wagon

 I've seen some real huge improvements that were particularly noticeable on Friday, and today when I was playing VR.  About in the past two weeks I suddenly kicked back into keto mode again.  

For years I thought I was doing the ketogenic diet, but I suddenly realized I wasn't.  I talk a bit about it here in this blog entry.

Basically, I kind of accidentally made some meals that have much more fat than usual.  After I did that, keto came back in, and all of the beneficial effects came back in.  Easier breathing, rapid weight loss (I dropped two belt notches in two weeks), improved cognitive function and mood, and perhaps most importantly improved vision.  I've talked quite a bit about ketogenic diets and vision therapy in previous entries.  Unfortunately, I lost a lot of vision therapy time thinking that I was in ketosis when I actually wasn't.  It sucks because the vision does improve a lot when in ketosis.  I don't know if it's just for the duration of the time I spend when I'm in ketosis, or if it actually makes vision therapy more effective.  I kind suspect it's both.
