Paragraph 1
I cut down on wordiness, restructured parts of the paragraph, removed the excess of questions.
The Keto Diet sounds so cool right. I mean, only a sicko wouldn’t want to eat crispy bacon, that with every crunch creates a symphony as it crackles with every bite, for breakfast, even more salty, fatty dripping bacon, that instantly lifts your spirits, as if you were being lifted away by food angels into a euphoric food coma, for lunch and mouth watering, juicy bacon once more for supper. Not many people that I know of would turn something like this down. The Keto diet seems like every foodies fantasy diet, but what are the effects it has on our body? The Keto diet actually has some nasty side effects. According to MensHealth.com, the risks associated with the Keto diet are bad breath, diarrhea, an increased risk of heart disease and diabetes and the Keto Flu, which affects 25% of people who try the Keto diet. Symptoms include vomiting, gastrointestinal distress, a lot of fatigue, and lethargy. However, in reality, it’s not even a flu and it tends to pass within a couple of days because your body just needs to make that transition into ketosis. Although it has its bad sides, and bad breath standing atop it all, the good outweighs the bad. After all, the Keto Diet is very popular for a reason.
Paragraph 2
A man looks at himself in the mirror. He doesn’t see himself anymore. Instead, he sees a shadow of his former self, enveloped in a thick layer of fat. His muscles that were once as solid as a rock, are now rolls of flabby fat that jiggle with the slightest of movements. That man was my Uncle. Until one day, when he decided it was time to be the better version of himself, to start a diet and to lose weight. He, like most, wanted to be a better version of himself. He wanted self-improvement. And like most, he wanted it fast. I remember recently, my uncle told my family that he wanted to lose weight and that he’s trying this new diet trend called the ketogenic diet, or Keto diet for short . Most of us didn’t know what he was referring to, so he explained it to us. A few weeks later, we saw him again and he actually lost a noticeable amount of weight. We were all shocked to say the least. We all thought that fat makes you fat, but he just proved to us otherwise. Then my dad brought up an interesting question. How safe is the diet? This question got me wondering the same thing. At this point, I was curious as to know if it was actually healthy. I felt scared for my uncle because I didn’t want anything bad to happen to him. I wanted to learn more about Keto so that I wouldn’t fear it anymore, as well as about the scientific aspects behind the diet, about the ketogenic process. All this ignited my desire to explore the Keto diet even further.
