I Ate Carbs For 9 Months ☠️ And It Didn't Go Well

☠️  I followed the directions from my medical professionals and ate carbs for 9 months and this is what happened...

Yup, I was super excited to eat all the carbs - especially when your best friends own an amazing Italian restaurant.

In January, I began working with a new dietitian and nutritionist after feeling frustrated with my previous office, where I had been a patient for ten years. The difficulty in scheduling appointments, rather than a lack of care, was the primary issue that prompted this change.

They advised me that adopting a low-carb lifestyle wasn't the optimal choice for an athlete like me and recommended increasing my carbohydrate intake from 40 grams to a whopping 200 grams. It felt like Christmas!

For months, I've been grappling with worsening headaches, body aches, difficulty concentrating, and poor sleep. The medical team assured me that I would improve, yet things only worsened. I've gained 10 pounds, my body dysmorphic issues have resurfaced, and I've been feeling utterly miserable!

I recently received the results from my lab work, and I found out that while some of my numbers decreased, others increased, creating chaos! After a thorough reassessment, we concluded that returning to a low-carb diet is what my body truly needs.

After just a week on it, I feel significantly better. My body seems to respond wonderfully to this structured environment.

Is anyone else out there following a low-carb lifestyle? Any great tips, tricks or secrets to share?

Love you all so big,
Jennie Jordan
