    CICO is an energy balance that applies to all diets including keto. When eating Keto (or any diet): if CI<CO one loses weight. If CI=CO one maintains. If CI>CO one gains weight.

    Eating a lchf diet has helped me to better adhere to an appropriate balance of Calories In based on my Calories Out for weight loss and/or maintenance.

    Minnesota, USA also - lots of weight to lose and I've gone down 13 lbs in just over a month! I love this way of eating - first time eating the keto way. I took small steps to lower my carbs over time to just under 30 net g per day, so I think I avoided the flu?! I have more energy and am more focused than ever now.

    Be aware that the so-called keto flu is generally 100% avoidable except in extreme cases.

    Keep your sodium up to replace the 3000-5000 mg of sodium that is dumped with ketones.

    At any stage of adaption you can develop electrolyte imbalance. Keep an eye on your sodium and fluids, and you'll probably be good.

    Newark, Delaware here, but was born & raised in Baltimore, & this is my second time around doing keto. Lost 46 pounds on my first go around between October & December 2017, took a break for the holidays, & told myself I'll get back on the wagon afterwards but didn't & ended up gaining back almost half of what I lost, & after 6 months of false starts I'm back to lose another 75 pounds.

    Ontario, Canada. Just started Keto Monday. I had my second child in 2016 gained nearly 75lbs and was at my heaviest at 217lb. Lost 26lbs on my on but stalled. Hoping that Keto (or at the very least low carb) can help.
