INTRODUCTION After a long absence of more than a decade, I recently returned to the highly pressurized, intense world of being a head chef at a brand-new New York City restaurant. This can be a grueling process—long days and late nights working to create the perfect menu to satisfy and wow customers. To get this eatery open and ready for the public, I spent months developing the entire menu. This was a long, painstaking process, but I loved it. I was definitely up for the challenge—it’s one of the things I missed most about heading up a restaurant. It was fun creating new dishes and experimenting with flavors. I was using everything I had ever learned—food development, menu creation, and overall kitchen management. I was back in my element. Of course, this process required a lot of tasting. Sometimes, though, I wouldn’t just taste it, I’d scarf down the whole dish. This is both a perk and a curse. After all, some of the items that ended up on the menu were very rich and not dishes you’d eat daily if you wanted to stay trim and fit. And so gradually (and inevitably), I began filling out and putting on pounds—to the point that I started wearing baggy shirts and pants. Underneath, I knew I was getting big, and eventually I had to face the music. One day I woke up, looked at my body in the mirror, and said to myself, “That’s it. Enough is enough.” I decided to lose that ugly pudge, and I needed to do it fast. Like everyone else, I had heard about the ketogenic diet. Needing to shed those pounds, I decided to dig deeper, reading and rummaging through all the resources I could find about keto. The ketogenic diet is essentially a fast-results plan for weight loss. You drop pounds quickly—a lot of people have been known to lose up to 10 pounds the first week!—and feel good while on it. You lose inches of fat all over your body. You don’t have mood swings caused by spikes in blood sugar, and you rarely feel hungry. And you can eat foods that for many years you’ve been told not to eat—bacon, eggs, steak, butter, and other fatty foods—because fat, not sugar, is really the ideal fuel
