    Hi, I've been doing Keto for a few months, down 19 lbs. I consider myself an experienced keto-er. I've done a TON of research and I'm pretty creative when it comes to being satisfied with this way of life. I'd love to share recipes, product reviews, etc. Send me a friend request if you want to see my diary. Honestly, I haven't been keeping it for a while now because I know what to eat and I frequently eat the same things day after day. I just completed yesterday and I'll keep it moving forward if anybody is interested. I don't stress about my fat but I'm militant about my carbs and protein.

    Keto will cause a water weight drop initially. Just be aware that is not fat loss. If you are not insulin resistant, keto has no metabolic advantage for fat loss. In the end, it's all about the energy balance equation. If keto helps you control hunger and cravings, as it does for some, and you prefer to eat this way and will comply with calorie targets, it's up to you.

    Knosti, I would love access to your diary for guidance. I tried to send you a message but it didn't go through.

    I've been doing keto on and off, such as the Banting Diet and LCHF.

    I have determined that this diet though will save me medically as well because I've been diagnosed with an autoimmune disease and they are saying high carb (refined sugar and wheat) have been the culprit.

    Anyways, I would love to be able to see your diary and so forth as I need to get serious about this and need some guidance!

    I've been keto for about 12 days and lost 14 lbs. I've been logging all food for about 10 days. My job is lightly active, other than that, I've done no exercise. You're welcome to friend me and look at my diary, but keep in mind my stats are no doubt quite different from yours. 282 lbs./180lbs. LBM
    3 years ago I lost about 50lbs on keto over 6 months. Weight loss stabled to about 2 lbs./week after the first 3 weeks. And I was weightlifting 3-5 days/week.

    I'm not quite keto, but close. Most of my meals would meet keto requirements, and I probably hit the same macros most days.

    I don't have a lot of history on my food diary but if it will help others I'll try to keep up with it. You can see what I have on there. Its been a few weeks since I added data. Good luck.

    You still have to count calories while doing keto or fasting or both.. if counting calories isn't working for you.. It's cause you are not logging correctly and that problem will not just resolve itself with a certain list of foods
