Saw this under success stories on main paige and thought it’d be fun to try here...
Here’s one that had surprised me (1/2 through to goal). I lost a lot of weight a few years ago and one of the things that freaked me out was all the wrinkles that showed up around my eyes out of nowhere. I gained a bit back I think now because my face worried me. This time on Keto diet my wrinkles are getting better as I lose??? And I swear my teeth have whitened and my eyes sight is slightly better. I’ll find out about the eyes tomorrow at the eye doc![:) :)](https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/resources/emoji/smile.png)
Anyone else?

The hormonal changes! I absolutely love the hormonal changes.
My pheromones have changed.
For years now, my favorite perfumes do not smell as good on me. But I know it's not the brand changed, or the bottle went bad, because they still smell absolutely wonderful on my 20 year old daughter.
Since starting keto, my perfumes smell good on me again!!
And other hormonal changes, I'll spare you the details. But PMS is gone, back to like it was in my 20s.
I feel like keto, has literally turned the clock back for me to my 20s!!!6 -
I just started my 5th week on keto. Only thing I've noticed so far is my energy level is up. Sure hope it helps with my wrinkles though 😃4

So I was right! My near eyesight is the same - hasn’t changed in years. But my Left eye fat vision is better! Yay! I was pretty sure I could see leaves on trees clearer again with no glasses!!!2

Energy for sure, and greater mental clarity. Be sure and add collagen peptides to help with loose skin! I've tried various hrands with success, just went for the highest rating on amazon along with good price. I am 49 and have not dealt with loose skin much while losing on keto.
Also, stronger nails.4 -
The palate changes. Since cutting carbs, lettuces and greens taste sweet to me.
I tried to add a drop of organic low carb ketchup to my Hebrew National hotdog... It was super sweet to me.
The natural sweetness of veggies and tomatoes are more pronounced.4
