Keto for change in lifestyle

Hello I'm Ben. I'm 34 and on a keto way of life.
Just a quick hello and introduction.
I began a paleo/Atkins/low carb diet 3 months ago having reached an alarming weight of 19st3. I am 6"6 and whilst I didn't look as obese as that weight sounds I needed to do something. I quickly turned into a ketogenic diet and I absolutely love it. 3 months in and I've lost weight meaning the scales now read 16st8, I'm about 50% of the way there. I am so much happier, I feel amazing, loads of energy, new clothes fit better.
I would certainly recommend this lifestyle change.
Moving forward I'm here to offer any advise from all I have learned in the past 3 months but also to continue my learning process and keep gathering information and support from a community to keep achieving my goals.
Thanks for taking time to read my introduction.
Best of luck to anybody who is trying to achieve a better you.
Ben
