About

I’m Jess, and I own and operate Num Yummy Butter.

NYB started as a blog on Tumblr to house my thoughts and experiences throughout my low carb journey. I found that keeping to a strict, ketogenic diet was incredibly effective for weight loss; however, I found that it was difficult to stick to, mainly because I failed to prepare myself for social situations and “fell off the wagon” repeatedly throughout 2016. Even still, I managed to lose and keep off 27 pounds by the end of 2016, simply by gravitating back to eating low carb time and time again.

I started this website to document my journey in a more permanent way to a larger audience base.

A little about the author: I am 29-years old, I work a full-time job, I have a husband who has joined this low-carb journey with me who also works a full-time job, my sister (who also eats low-carb) lives with us, and we have two cats, Duchess and Stonewall Jackson.
