I'm still on my journey, but I've been keto now for 29 weeks. I'm down 40lbs and feeling great.
I still have 60lbs to go but I know I'll get there. Keto has been the only diet I've ever been able to stick with and I don't feel deprived b/c I make keto friendly items to help if I am having a craving for something (right now it's cake so I've been making a delicious keto chocolate mug cake recipe).
My weight loss has been a bit of a rollarcoaster and stalled at times, but I stuck with it and it has paid off.
I went from an 18 to a loose size 14 now. I carry a lot of weight in my stomach which is why I think I'm not down further b/c my body lost in my legs first lol.
I'm not super strict... such as.. I still drink diet soda every day and I use artificial sweeteners and use things with "bad" ingredients if it fits my macros.... and that's what works for me.

Good Morning,

I have been on Keto since mid May I think and I am down almost 40lbs and I love it, I am not strick Keto since I sometimes use carb balance tortillas since it fits in my Marcos. I don’t eat the tortillas everyday though, just to be clear. If you need ideas on what to make for meals on Keto you can YouTube KetoConnect, Keto Gina or just Keto and you can find a bunch of recipes or go to DietDoctor.com they have some great recipes.

Good luck on your journey.

No pics but I've been doing keto for 10 weeks and I'm down 28lbs. Still have 75 more to go.

Keto for 2.5 years, 154lbs lost, t2d reversed. Still plenty of weight to lose and emotional stuff to work out but nothing in twenty years has worked for me like low carb.

Keto since August 18th 2018 down 33 pounds and feel great. Husband’s triglycerides have dropped to normal numbers and doctors are monitoring him to slowly take him off meds. We are Keto for life. We had 2 “cheat” days, weight goes up about 5lbs and takes about a week to settle back down. We’ve scheduled 5 cheat days for this year and slightly higher carbs during the summer to accommodate peaches and watermelon😜

Sometimes keto, sometimes an easier way of low carb, lived like this for several years, down 132 pounds. I feel so much better on this diet, my health is getting better and better. And I don't feel I miss anything either.

Keto one year now and down 129 lbs. Feel a heck of a lot better with much less muscle/joint pains. Started this as moral support for my spouse but ended up sticking with it for 2018 and beyond Settling in with the range of 170-175 so about 6 lbs away and very proud of how far I have come down this path.

Been on Keto for almost two years. Lost 52 pounds. I'm 4'11". I'll continue this lifestyle for the rest of my life, as I'd never felt this great before.

I started keto on February 21st, 2018 at around 270 pounds and today I am 195 pounds. My health has greatly improved and these are my results with keto and weightlifting.

Man! So many smoking hotties in this thread! You guys are KILLING IT!

Started Keto 2 weeks ago and am down 6 lbs. Not as much as some but I feel so much better. I had pain in my foot from inflammation and it is virtually gone. I also feel less bloated. 24 lbs to go!

@Vonkaa at the age of 63 I went Keto because my years of crashing health went into hyperdrive.

My health still continues to improve at the age of 68. One unexpected side effect without effort I lost 50 pounds the first year on Keto and have maintained that loss for over 3 years now. Besides keeping my daily carbs at or just under 50 grams daily I do not eat foods containing added sugars and or any form of any grain to keep it simple in my case.

Everyone does keto differently. Nuts/coconuts are major carb and fat sources in my case as well as fiber. Some go for very low to zero carb but that has no appeal since I am only Keto to work to reverse years of health issues related to Ankylosing Spondylitis.

Best of success and remember there are many Ways Of Eating out there so if you decide Keto is not your cup of tea find a WOE that works with you. Keto is still working for me so far.

I have just started vegetarian Keto last week. (Been vege for years). Haven’t weighed myself yet as I tend to become a bit obsessed once I start so will weigh in every 2 weeks. I feel a bit better and slightly more energy. Has anyone experienced Keto flu yet?

beautifulmom80

I have been on keto for 1 week now and I am down 14 pounds I still have a long ways to go but I am starting to feel better about myself every day.

I’ve been on keto for 10 months and have lost 43 pounds! It’s amazing and I love how I feel! Eating keto will be my way of life now!!!

I've been doing keto for about 10 months and I've lost about 45 lbs (my lowest was 51 lbs down but I just got back from a "keto out the window for a week" visit with my daughter in Chicago, so I'm working on those Thai noodle regrets now. 😊 ) I keep my carbs under 20g per day and when I hit a lull, I kick start myself with a week or so of intermittent fasting, which is easy-peasy on keto because I'm never hungry anyway. Diabetes (T2) is rampant in my family and keto helps me manage my sugar. That growly, fainty early morning hunger? Gone. Dawn phenomenon? Gone (which I attribute to a combo of keto and laying off all alcohol after 7pm.) When I go to visit my Mom, she always tests my blood sugar for me. 96-100, regardless of when I last ate. My energy is good, my focus at work is better by leaps and bounds, and my skin is clear and (fairly) glowy (for a nearly-50 lady.)
Most importantly, I know I can easily follow this way of eating for life. It's quite likely the best thing I've ever done for myself.
