I started my keto diet, week ago. Today when I stepped on the scale, I had lost 5 pounds :) It has so far been the easiest 5 pounds off lol. Can someone advise, will this also help me lose inches off the waist? Thanks in advance

    Most of what you lost was water weight. To lose fat, including stomach fat, you need a calorie deficit over time. Just use your food diary here on MFP, log everything, and be patient.

    Like said above it takes time, just like any other way of eating. As long as u r eating ur macros and calories correctly then yes u will see inches disappear. There is a small % of people that keto does not help for some reason or another. But most of us see good results.
