Helloand welcome to Real Journeys in Health &amp; Wellness.  This podcast is an avenue for those who havetransformed their health to share their journeys; with the intent ofencouraging, motivating, and inspiring others that are also discovering theirpath to health &amp; wellness. Thisweek we are talking to Amy Monson Amy wasborn and raised in a small farming community in rural Minnesota.  After 18 years of that, she wanted to see theworld, so she joined the MN Army National Guard.  She sure did see the world; she ended up witha 20-year career and three over-seas deployments: Kosovo 2003-04, Iraq 2005-07,and Afghanistan 2011-12.  Believe it ornot, Afghanistan was where she found her interest in Agriculture and decided togo back to school.  She received her BSin General Agriculture with a minor in AG Education from North Dakota StateUniversity in 2015.  She found out shereally enjoyed school, so she thought it would be a great idea to continue, andshe applied to Graduate School. She graduated in 2017 with a Master’s Degree inEducation.   She was anAgriculture teacher in the public education system for less than a year whenshe decided that was not a place, she wanted to be long term.  So she quit, staying at home with her threekids. In June of2018, she retired from the MN Army National Guard after a 20-year career.  This was very difficult for her, but it wastime to move on to her next chapter in life. She and herhusband adopted three kids in December of 2015. They are great kids but havesome special needs.  She startedresearching the KETO Lifestyle for herself and found the great benefits itoffered not only her but also the kids.  Sheis very passionate about the Keto Lifestyle, which is why she became aCertified Ketogenic Living Coach so she could help others achieve their goalsusing this lifestyle. Shestruggled with her weight and mood most of my adult life.  She has tried it all…counting points, drinkingshakes, magic pills, even lasers that claim to melt your fat away in justminutes a day.  One thing after another,she was chasing after something that could have worked, but it was not asustainable lifestyle by any means.  At herheaviest, she was 202 pounds on a frame that was only 5′ 8″. She was miserable in her own body, withno hope in sight.  This is the point inthe story where she is supposed to tell you how she found Keto, and her lifechanged, but that is not the case.  Sheinstead got deployed to Iraq for what turned into 22 very long months.  When she was there, she was able to find runningand used it to reduce stress.  Well, itreduced her weight by 30 pounds too!   After returning home, life hit her again, and all the weight crept back on little by little.  She still went to the gym, with no weight loss.  She thought she was eating healthy, but fell of the wagon over and over.  Then, she found Keto and started researching how and why it worked. She got a coach, and the weight just started coming off, and she felt like a million bucks!  She was happy with her progress and couldn’t wait to tell anyone, and everyone that would listen to her new found “miracle”!
