Anyone who’s struggled to shed a few pounds might be skeptical that you can enjoy mashed avocado, fried halloumi, kedgeree, or a chorizo omelet for brunch every day while losing up to 2 kg per week.
But on my new Fast 800 keto plan, you absolutely can.
This is because, by closely follow the latest researchand liaising with top nutrition scientists, I have refined my approach to weightloss. I’ve created a smart three-step process that promises fast results and sustained weight loss, all while eating healthy amounts of real food.
