Episode 165: Ken Armstrong
Ken Armstrong is a business analyst, cyclist, and low-carb/keto proponent. He has an amazing weight loss story—losing over 210 lbs over the course of his dietary journey—with high points and low points and lessons learned along the way. Having been disappointed again and again by a variety of different diets, Ken discovered Gary Taubes’ book, Why We Get Fat, which set him on the path to finally attaining health and sustainable weight loss. After falling off the wagon for a while, he returned to low-carb and began trying intermittent fasting as well. This combination of fasting and dieting helped him to regain the progress he had lost. Since then, he has been experimenting with the carnivore diet as part of his continued effort to discover which nutritional decisions are best for him. “You are never beyond help. You are never beyond hope.” This is the message that Ken wants to communicate.
Brian and Ken talk about Ken’s health journey so far, dealing with gall stones, wether or not fat can be addictive by itself, protein-sparing modified fasting, preparing for success in tempting situations, mindfulness and sympathetic overdrive, the vital importance of community for physical and mental health, why diet alone is not sufficient to make one healthy, learning to enjoy the journey rather than being impatient to reach the goal, and food addiction.
Thank you for listening. Have a blessed day and stay healthy!
