I am 5 pounds away from my first goal weight where I will finally not e considered "overweight."
I am on the keto diet and going up and down with the same pound. How long will it take on this diet to successful drop another 10-15 pounds?

    Pretty much ... or how much you exercise.

    Calorie gaps do apply at some point, ketogenic diet or not.

    I think the best advantage of being ketogenic is that the blood-sugar rollercoaster feeling is gone so if you want to eat less to accelerate fat loss you can without the gnawing hunger (energy needs being met by the body's fat stores, etc).
