Aileen Ablog

Aileen Ablog discovered the ketogenic diet when she was faced with a future of health ailments, such as heart disease and diabetes, after having fought endometrial cancer. She needed to lose weight and change her eating habits. Within a few months of weight loss and increased energy, she realized this was more than a diet, but a lifestyle.

Four years later, Aileen is still a strong advocate for the ketogenic diet. She has written the Ketogenic Pressure Cooker, organized several ketogenic Meetup events, worked with local businesses, and coached many friends and family members.

A science geek at heart, Aileen created the blog Thriving on Low Carb initially to document her journey, but it’s also become a recipe resource for her brothers along with a resource for restaurant dining tips and product reviews.

By day she works at the University of the Fraser Valley as a chemistry lab technician. She lives in Chilliwack, BC, with her husband, Jeffrey. She enjoys cooking, baking, watching movies, and weightlifting.
