pray for transition to Keto Diet

I use the computer for many hours each day.

For the last few weeks, there have been increasing pains in my right hand, wrist, and forearm. 

I use a wireless turbo ball mouse instead of a standard mouse. So I can put my arm in different positions while easily moving the cursor.

I went online to search for massage and acupressure for my hand. 

There was a mention that a change of diet could help decrease inflation and support joint health.

That took me down the path to learn about the Keto diet. 

Many of the foods I eat each week are off that diet. And there are things on the diet I never buy. 

So I have created a grocery list for shopping next month. 

I will eat what I have and transition into those recommended foods. 

I have never needed to lose weight nor do I need to lose weight now.

Besides helping my hand and joints the videos suggest more energy. I can always use more energy. 

Besides changing what I eat there is a matter of when I eat. For 2 years at this apartment, I would eat a little all day and all night. I rarely had a big mear at home. 

But the recommendation is 2 meals that are 4 hours apart. 

At this moment when I enter into this transition, I recall the slogans that helped me in the past and they are as follows.

Keep it simple

Easy does it

One day at a time

Please pray for me to embrace and work with those slogans in the coming weeks and months. 

At this moment I perceive this as an experiment. Today I am not one hundred percent committed to using the keto diet for the rest of my life. I have heard many stories of those that went on it for a while and came off. 

But like stretching a rubber band surely my diet will not be the same as it has been. 

I request your best prayers both for the changing of my diet and for the health of my hand, wrist, and forearm. 

If you have been on the keto diet then I invite your insights, recommendations, and stories.

Shalom
John
