Joanna Wilcox from IAmKetoInCanada.com is a passionate follower of the ketogenic diet, and a mother of two from Southwestern Ontario, Canada. While working full time she always found it difficult to make herself a priority after having children. Her priorities shifted from her own health to the well-being of her family. She had forgotten that her health directly affected everyone around her. After seeking help for emotional eating she discovered the keto diet. She now documents her success story at her Instagram account and her website, and offers inspiration to others that are in the same place as she found herself. Listen in today as Jimmy and Joanna talk about:  Her journey from unfit to the keto lifestyle Vulnerability online The coach that gave her advice that she wasn't expecting Being authentic with others Finding inspiration in others and being an inspiration Why attitude is the most important part The struggle with mentally overthinking things Dealing with struggles Being a wife and mom while working on yourself and much more  "What I decided when I started my Instagram was that I was going to be 100% myself. What I learned is that when I am my most vulnerable I am not alone." — Joanna Wilcox, @KetoInCanada

A stressful day at the office would leave Joanna Wilcox yearning for a binge at a local fast-food joint. By leveraging the appetite-suppressing effects of the ketogenic diet and using Instagram as an accountability partner, she’s lost over 60 pounds of fat and has built some muscle. This episode is brought to you by: ➢ Perfect Keto, the makers of high-quality exogenous ketones and MCT oil products. *Save over 20% by using this link https://www.perfectketo.com//HIH   ---Key Timestamps---------------  03:50 Joanna’s behavioral therapy counselor told her to cut carbs, to log what she was eating and count the carbs. Her counselor’s recommendation was for Joanna to consume less than 20 carbs per day. Eventually, it was internet before/after pics of low carb diets that motivated her to try it. 06:31 Joanna went keto/low carb. She tracked what she ate and stuck to her net carbs. In the first 6 months, she lost 45 pounds. The next 6 months she lost 15 pounds. She documented her weigh in on Instagram. Everyone loses at different rates and times. 07:30 Joanna does not test blood or urine ketones. She figures that eating 20 net carbs or less is keto. 08:11 Keto helped Joanna with emotional eating, though she is not sure why. Perhaps it was the leveling of blood sugar and fewer hunger cues. With emotional eating, it feels like you have no control over what you are eating. Joanna had been told that if she was going to eat something because of emotions, to eat something low carb. 10:16 Look inside yourself and determine what you want. Do self-care. Walk. 11:34 Accountability partners help you to make the private public, motivating you and others, as well as providing an emotional outlet. Joanna serves as inspiration for others. 16:08 Tracking marcos are a good first step. By now, Joanna can calculate her macros in her head. 16:53 Joanna’s current goal is to do a 3 minute handstand, a one arm handstand, a pullup and body sculpting. 18:17 Joanna also implements time restricted feeding and exercise, in addition to counting macros. 18:27 You need to move your body. Diet can get you only so far. 19:51 Having a personal trainer helps you learn, make the most out of the time at the gym and pushes you further. You can find effective at home workouts online. 24:50 The four stages for readiness for change: 1. An authority figure, like a doctor, tells you that you must change. 2. Someone close to you is telling you that you need to change/loss weight. 3. You notice the physical effects. 4. Rock bottom is when in your core, you are ready.  29:50 Keto is a huge adjustment in lifestyle. There is sacrifice involved, especially in social situations. Get comfortable. 31:16 Women can get migraines, rashes, hair loss and/or menstrual cycle changes. Joanna got the rash at day 30. 33:33 You can eat out, even at fast food restaurants, and stay keto. 36:40 Tracking and weighing her food was key to Joanna’s success. 37:26 Condensing the feeding window allowed for larger, more enjoyable meals. You still need and get your calories. 38:57 Intuitive eating is influenced by our emotions. Now that Joanna does not have as much fat on her body, she needed to increase her fat intake. Make changes and see how it affects you.
