I had the great pleasure of talking with my friend Autumn just a couple of weeks before her wedding. We chatted about her keto journey, and how it's helped to mitigate the effects of Crohn's Disease. We also talked about her experiences growing up as a fraternal twin, her recent trip to Paris, KetopaLOUza, and of course, her beau Richard. It was wonderful catching up with her!

I'm pretty thrilled to have my man Mike Gorman on this episode of Konvos. You may know him better as @gormy_goes_keto on Instagram. He has gone through some absolutely remarkable body transformations -- from 540 pounds at his heaviest, down to 210, back up to 470 -- and now, after some significant life events, and after finding keto and a new mindset, he finds himself at around 205 pounds. His podcast, Fat Guy Forum, is superb, and features men who were (or still are) large dudes, and who face many of the issues that Gormy has.
