Enjoying your gooey St. Louis cake at lunch today. I was a little skeptical when I was making it but it is a-mazing! I chose it because I had all of the ingredients on hand…would make again!!

I was a D1 college varsity athlete and that I thought I knew a thing (or 100) about nutrition and health. I would load up on carbs, carbs and more carbs. An injury caused the NCAA to dismiss me from varsity sports, and I became crazy about my food intake and my calories burned. I ended up losing about 30 lbs (primarily muscle) and I thought I looked awesome, but I ended up with an ED pretty much. I tried so many things; not counting calories, counting calories. Whole 30, shakes, different meal planning phone apps, supplements, low fat, high carb, etc… but I just could not lose the weight. It was not until I stumbled across your podcast on iTunes that I started to understand the emotional and physical trauma I was inflicting on myself by counting calories and running from fat and mirrors when I did not look or feel my best. Leanne, because of your knowledge and confidence in your mission my life has CHANGED. My moods are steady and I have more energy and patience. My skin is glowing and oh yeah, I am losing weight but feeling stronger every day. I am such a believer in your program that I even got my fiancé to start with me this week. I feel amazing and I feel happy.

I would like to thank you for website, podcast, You Tube videos, weekly emails, and The Keto Diet Cookbook. I have been keto for about 3 weeks now and I feel like I have a tremendous amount of support from you. I have struggled with my body for years and ever since I found you, I have been rethinking my whole image philosophy. Thank you!

— Kelli

Leanne, I just wanted to thank you for being such a positive influence. I have been loving keto for the past year and a half, but just figured out quite recently that what matters most is that I haven’t been loving myself. I need to get to a place where my worth is not based on a number or what I did or didn’t eat in a day. YOU are helping me with that! I’m learning about myself, what works for me and learning to love myself in the process.

I have struggled with my weight since a knee injury in high school when I tore my ACL and never quite recovered physically or mentally. Fast forward almost 20 years, I’m a mother of a very active 2.5-year-old. I’ve been starving myself on low cal diets and always remain in yo-yo land of 175-190 lbs and I’m only 5’7″. I had been eating a whole food diet with limited dairy and almost no sugar, but I was obsessed with tracking calories and logging my food with very little result. Then I found you during a desperate internet search to change things and I’m so glad I did! It’s only been a few weeks but I’m already losing weight, and more importantly, I’m understanding how to listen to my body…no more calorie tracking and I feel great. Best of all, I’m finding that I even have more patience with my son. When he throws a fit I don’t find myself snapping immediately, I’m calm and cool and able to defuse the situation. There’s so much more I could say but I’ll just end with THANK YOU!

I am a 70-year-old woman who has tried to eat well for years, but nothing I was doing was changing my bad report at my wellness exams. I had high cholesterol, high blood pressure, was pre-diabetic, overweight etc. I have fibromyalgia, osteopenia, hypoglycemia, and hypothyroidism. My doctor wanted to put me on statins for my cholesterol for months & I finally agreed to take the lowest dosage he could give me. I took two pills and just couldn’t continue because I hate drugs. I was determined to change things myself with food. So I purchased The Keto Diet book, listened to The Keto Diet Podcast as well as practiced intermittent fasting, and at my very next wellness exam, I received a glowing report! He said I should be a poster child for the elderly. No need for statins, no more pre-diabetic, blood pressure was perfect. The best part of my visit was telling him I didn’t take the drugs. He was so surprised and wanted to know what I did. Leanne is just a love and her book is so informative and written so well that even an old lady like me can understand.

I recently started eating keto through a competition at my gym. It involved a strict meal plan which included lots of eggs, bacon, cheese, heavy cream, fat bombs, etc. (and an exogenous ketone supplement… yuck.) I quickly realized this was just not the plan for me because the hunger was real, my body’s response to dairy was real and my fat loss results plateaued. After a lot of online research, I found Leanne’s YouTube videos and devoured dozens. I subscribed to the 3-month meal plan and bought The Keto Diet book. After 1 week of the meal plan, I have broken through the plateau and lost 4lbs and 2% body fat. Even though that’s great, the best thing is the yummy food, no dairy in my life anymore, and I feel full and do not want to eat my arm off at the end of the day. Now all my gym friends who are in the challenge are curious about what and I was able to convince several others to buy your book. You have majorly impressed me and I believe what you’re doing is more than clinical and not a one-size-fits-all canned plan. I look forward to making this journey my way of life and engaging with your plan every step of the way!

I ADORE YOU!! Your podcast is changing my life and the filter in which I view myself especially postpartum. It is no longer about weight loss, but feeling the best I can as a mom! Thanks from the bottom of my heart. I literally can’t stop telling everyone to listen!!

— Whitney

After reading your blog for about a year I finally bought your book, The Keto Diet, and started eating keto almost 2 weeks ago. I’m 57 and fearful of Alzheimer’s, and my mind seems clearer and more focused. Yesterday, I found myself licking my salad plate to get all the yummy fat off of it! Thanks so much for all your info and help!

— Sharon

You. Are. AMAZING! I have been struggling for years with health issues (joint pain, fatigue, weight gain, skin issues, depression, anxiety… the list goes on). I have been gluten free for over a decade and started Paleo three years ago. I have listened to paleo podcasts for years and continued to tweak my diet, hoping for a solution to my health problems. Paleo helped a bit but I still had all of the issues, just to a lesser degree. After being diagnosed with hypothyroidism, I tried autoimmune paleo and finally came across your podcast. I immediately went “keto” and within 3 days I had ENGERY, I could THINK, I was no longer depressed! I am now 3 weeks in and couldn’t wait any longer to let you know how thankful I am for you and your work. Not only is the content life changing, but you present it in such an easily digestible way. You are open and so thorough that you literally answer all of the questions I have before I can ask them. I could say so much more… but for now. Thank you for all you do!

— Sarah

I’m a long-time fan of your work. I started keto about a year and a half ago, thanks to your awesome Fat-Fueled plan. I got both the Keto Beginning and Fat-Fueled since I had no idea how to even shift to a high-fat diet. I have a variety of health issues (Lyme’s disease, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome and all the accompanying fun things that those entail, the list is long so I won’t bore you) and shifting to high fat brought a lot of relief to the GI issues I was experiencing as well as helping me mentally. I too wrestled with anorexia for many years and so really, really appreciate how you approach the mental aspect of the relationship with food, body image, and health.

I just received your book (The Keto Diet) yesterday and I have only read a couple pages worth, but already I can see the similarities to my life and how this is going to give me the confidence I’m needing to continues on and fight the “haters.” I’m always the kind of person that reads everything before just jumping into something new. It’s amazing how no matter what I try to do to improve MY life, there is so much negative response when people don’t understand.  I just thought you should know you touched someone in need.

— Jennifer

I am loving your book, your podcasts, and all your videos! Since post menopause, I had most of the signs of pre-dementia, and this diet has been reversing them – it has been a true miracle for which I am eternally grateful. I believe it has saved my life. I plan to also incorporate the other health advice you give, such as yoga and breathing. Thank you so much for what you do!

— Heather

Just want to thank you and tell you how much I appreciate the way you speak and write about health and life! I’m relatively new to keto but have been Paleo-esque for awhile. I came across your name after seeing your books on some Paleo sites and hearing your interviews on other keto and health podcasts. I now look forward to every one of your own podcast episodes and blog and Instagram postings. Thanks for keeping things health oriented with a practical and nourishing approach for women! I love learning from you!

— Sarah

WOW! That’s all I have to say. I came across your website a couple weeks ago and I can’t get enough. As a newly graduated Holistic Nutritionist, I am now questioning what I have learned in school and how I will be treating clients. You have definitely changed my way of thinking and I am on the path of recommending Keto-Healthful Pursuit style to my new clients. Thank you for being real, true to yourself and inspiring.

— Karine

I have been subscribing to the meal plans for a few months now, and I just have to say, THANK YOU for offering this service. It is everything I ever wanted in a food plan and more. I love that I don’t have to think about my grocery list or what I am going to eat because it’s all already laid out and all I have to do is shop and cook! For me, it is just perfect.

— Ashley

I have been on and off keto for years. I purchased the Keto Bundle a few days ago and read the whole book today. You answered questions I got from nowhere else – why I can’t sleep – why my carbs and calories are too low – thank you!

— Robin

Thank you, Leanne. I’m following you from Switzerland! I just cured fibromyalgia with your Fat Fueled version of the ketogenic diet in only 1 month (and lost 4kg) after several years of suffering, medications and expensive exams. Thank you for your videos!

— Anna

I’m loving The Keto Beginning Audiobook. I’m excited to order your upcoming book this spring! Thank you for your wealth of experience and positive attitude. I love your podcasts and articles.

 Love your book and love your podcasts. I had an issue with my heart a year ago and it scared me into taking that expensive blood test for food allergies.  I had severe toxins from candida and horrible intolerance to sugar and turkey, among other things.  My cardiologist said it wasn’t food allergies causing my heart issues, but for the first time I said “not yet” to a doctor wanting to do surgery.  Six weeks later with no sugar, low carbs and healthy fats…heart issue is GONE!  My doctor was baffled, and one year later I am 50 pounds less.
