My Journey

Meet That Keto Chick ♡

Hi, I’m Dion’na — and for me, keto is about so much more than losing weight.

My journey with keto began after years of struggling with depression. During that season of my life, I gained more weight than I ever imagined I would. Over the years, keto became a tool I could count on to lose the weight—but I also learned a hard lesson: every time I returned to my old way of eating, the weight returned too, usually bringing a few extra pounds along with it.

After enough trial and error, I realized I didn't need another diet. I needed to learn how to eat to live.

I feel better when my body is using fat for fuel. My mind feels clearer, I have more energy, and I feel motivated to accomplish the goals I've set for myself. And at this stage of my life, taking care of my body matters more than ever. My knees remind me every day that they weren't designed to carry 200-plus pounds!

So yes, I'm on the journey again—but this time I'm not looking for a temporary fix. I'm making a life choice.

I'm choosing to eat healthier. I'm choosing to live better. And I'm choosing to enjoy the next phase of my life feeling stronger, healthier, and more present for all that I still want to experience.

I've also become fascinated by the science behind ketogenic eating and its established medical uses, as well as ongoing research into how ketogenic approaches may affect metabolic and neurological health. That has given me even more reason to learn about what I put into my body and how it makes me feel.

That Keto Chick is where I'm sharing that journey—the recipes, the lessons I've learned, the victories, the setbacks, and some seriously good food along the way.
