November 2, 2019 Meetup Recap

We had 35 Ketonians attend the November 2, 2019 meetup held at the Brookdale Library in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota. There were a few new people as well as several returning members.

SMALL TALK

We had small talk for a few minutes while people gathered.

INTRODUCTIONS

We introduced ourselves and answered the question: What is a recent keto success?

  • Surviving Halloween without binging on candy.

  • Convincing family to improve their health with Keto.

  • Experiments with carnivore.

ANNOUNCEMENTS

Next meetups will be:

Brenda Zorn had an extremely successful presentation / group fast at Low-Carb Houston.

  • The fasting project was beyond successful.
