    You might search the groups and see if there is one that is about Keto (guaranteed there is). Restrictive diets such as Keto don't usually get a warm welcome on these boards so many of the people who do Keto stay away.

    Lol! Well today is day 3, blood sugar 83 fasting... Small amount of ketones in urine.... I tried vegan for a year, 6 months of only eating fruit and veggies, blood sugars was high, so I'm looking for a different approach , you want to get fit? Do what the fit people do! Lol

    Not necessary unless you have specific conditions that require ketosis. Largely a waste of time.

    I did get a chuckle out of the "do what the fit people do" comment though so thanks for that. I know 0 fit people that do keto unfortunately for your argument so your point would be moot. :)

    I'm sure there are a few that do, but not nearly as many that don't.

    For the record, even people that do the keto diet know that it's all about calorie deficit to lose weight and drop fat. You can drop fat doing the diet you choose. You can also get fat doing any diet you choose.

    actually a friend of mine that does competitive body building turned me on to Keto last year. Still have my slip up days, but for the most part, this truly is the only way I can lose weight.

    Some pretty opinionated comments on the Keto conversation.
