#1 New Release, #1 Best Seller. Stephanie Laska lost 140 pounds, roughly half of her body weight, by following a ketogenic inspired diet. She figured out the secret to losing weight without the crazy restrictions of a traditional keto diet by following a “dirty” and “lazy” version of keto.
Stephanie spent most of her adult life in the Morbidly Obese Class III BMI category. Hovering close to 300 pounds, she avoided booths at restaurants and feared not fitting into amusement park rides. “I once put my jacket over my lap so the flight attendant wouldn’t see that my seatbelt wouldn’t close,” she admits.
It wasn’t until a friend suggested she could continue to drink beer while still losing weight that Stephanie decided to “try one last time”. Any diet that included loopholes for having a cold beer might be worth a try, she reflected.
Through trial and error, Stephanie learned how eating a low carb, moderate protein, higher fat diet could finally nudge her weight in the right direction. “This is the weirdest diet ever!” went through her mind every time she got on the scale. Coming from an era of eating Fruit Loops washed down with a pitcher of Kool-Aid, Stephanie was clueless about the metabolic effects of consuming too many carbohydrates.
DIRTY, LAZY, KETO explains the unique diet Stephanie followed to achieve her success. Using humor and simple explanations, Stephanie walks the reader through her personal manifesto for weight loss and maintenance. This beginner's guide is chock full of helpful strategies and food lists for you to immediately employ.
Stephanie has kept her weight off for six years. She left behind a giant dent on the couch to run twelve marathons, two of which earned her a first-place marathon medal. As part of the elite “Clean Start Team”, Stephanie even ran the New York City Marathon in 2017 as a sponsored athlete for PowerBar. Her story even appeared in the international publication, Muscle and Fitness: HERS, Spring 2018. More recently, Costco Connection shared Stephanie's story in an article about the merits of an anti-inflammatory diet (January 2019). She is quoted in a Reader's Digest article about foods to avoid while on the keto diet (January 2019) and defends the dirty keto lifestyle in an online Playboy interview (May 2019). You might have even seen Stephanie’s bikini photo (summer 2019) in First for Women Magazine, worldwide!
