Hello, & Welcome. My name is Oak. I have created this blog to document my journey following the Ketogenic way of eating and My adventures in Quilting.
I have been overweight for many years. The weight has crept up year after year since my first child. I have tried many diet over the years and joined many organizations to help me lose the weight. I would lose, then quit and gain back most or more of what I lost.
I began eating Keto in early 2016. It has changed my life.
My Rheumatoid arthritis has improved. My Psoriasis has mostly cleared. I have energy like I have never had before. Life it good J.
My next passion is Quilting.
Quilting has always been a passion of mine. Since I was little I can remember being fascinated with my mother’s sewing machine. Sneaking fabric to make small pillows by hand.
My grandmother made quilts. I was so interested in the patterns she would make with fabric. I think that is when the interest in quilting started.
Fast forward about 30 years and I finally decided it was time to start my own quilts. The very first quilt I made was rag quilt for my granddaughter. It was so exciting to see it come together. And my obsession began. Now 3 years later. I have a pretty good stash. Many UFO’s (unfinished projects) and many ideas floating around my head.
I hope this blog will help others as I get healthy one stich at a time.
