I just started keto about 2 weeks ago. I'd love to see everyone's before and after photos on keto.

Most recent I have. I'm now at around 92lbs lost. Doing net carbs and pretty strict keto with one cheat day a month if I was good. I've found that the key to Keto is to "chase" the protein not the fat. Get in your protein and you'll maintain muscle and the other macros will fall into place.

that's great! I am planning keto, but have been doing well with keeping up the protein, so not sure if high protein still ok.2

High protein is fine. (Also don't forget calories. Keto isn't a magic ignore calories in calories out remedy.) Ketogains has a couple of good articles on protein consumption while on keto.

That second article has links to a ton of other articles regarding keto and protein.
They also have a nice concise reminder on how eating keto really shouldn't be butter bombs.

I started Keto last week (9/25/2017). I am 4.2 lbs down, as of yesterday. This week I am trying not to look at the scale that much. I didn't take any before/after pictures, but did take measurements. Plan to re-measure at the end of the month. I truly don't find this WOE that hard, which is incredibly surprising to me.6

I'd be curious to see long term effect on total cholesterol, 2-3 years AFTER the initial massive weight loss.4

Here's one study (not 2-3 years), but from my research those who have lost weight and stayed keto, have had regular numbers. I'm sure it depends on the individual and eating habits.
