A FOODIE has revealed how she was able to shed over 175 pounds while still indulging in cheeseburgers.
Chelsey Bishop (@ketohalfasser), from Arizona, weighed a whopping 340 pounds at her heaviest and was battling sleep and breathing issues despite being just age 33.
She was able to transform her 5ft 3 inches physique without exercise or surgery by following a keto diet.
A ketogenic diet involves eating high amounts of fat, and moderate amounts of protein with minimal carbohydrates.
Chelsey has racked up over 202,000 followers on TikTok after revealing the low-carbohydrate foods that she ate while keeping her net carbs less than 20.
She posted footage from before her weight loss showing herself eating a meal at a restaurant.
She looked almost unrecognizable as she showed her now slim physique eating years later.
“How did I go from this… to this? Lots of cheeseburgers,” read the text over the video.
“…bunless of course,” she added in the caption.
Chelsey included the hashtags #ketodiet, #extremeweightloss, and #lowcarb.

The video went viral with commenters inspired to try and lose their own excess body weight with a ketogenic diet.
One person commented: “Yes, I’ve lost 76 pounds doing keto.”
Another said: “Yay! I’ve been eating low carb since the end of Feb and I’m down 33 pounds. You look amazing!!”
A third said: “I’ve been eating low-carb cheeseburgers for three days now. I hope I can stick to this diet. You look great.”
A fourth added: “Damn, that’s impressive.”
Chelsey has gone from a size 28 to 10 since 2018 and has used social media throughout to keep track of her weight loss.
She revealed in a YouTube video that she chose to focus on nutrition to overhaul her body because she didn’t feel comfortable with joining a gym.
She said: “I have a super busy work schedule, two very sedentary jobs.
“I don’t move around too much and exercise is something I get from walking or everyday things.
“A gym has never been appealing to me. I didn’t want to be that 340-pound girl going to a gym and getting laughed at.
“I had so much anxiety about being seen at a gym at a large size.
“I wasn’t willing to take on a whole new diet and a whole new exercise routine.
