3 weeks in and not seeing weight loss

A few things come to mind. If you started new exercise it can hold on to water weight, so can too much sodium. If you're not weighing what you eat you may be eating more than you think you are. Keto is good for those who don't get satisfied from carbs, so if that's you keto may very well help you stay in a deficit. So how's your tracking, are you using a food scale? If not, buy one and weigh your portions for a month and see where you're at.

I think maybe switch up what your doing try the low carb and see what happens... I’ve been doing low carb for 3 weeks now and it’s my first time ever doing a low carb diet... I love that I feel full longer that stops me from snacking on crap and cuts down my cravings BUT I thought I would see dramatic weight loss on low carb but instead it’s been about a pound a week.. I’m not complaining I’m just surprised I had the same results on low calorie/ high carb diet too but I guess the difference is I feel better doing low carb

It was day 45 before I lost my first pound of weight when I went LCHF Oct 2014. 30 days in my joint pain had dropped from a long term level of 7-8 to 2-3 and I had lost an inch at my waist. I didn't even know it was possible to lose fat without losing weight.

Now turning 67 my pain is >1 most of the time, lost another 50 pounds eating all I want of my 5% carbs, 20% protein and 75% fact macros.

Keto/LCHF seems to be greatly slowing down my rush to a premature death. There is nothing magical about keto but it seems that way when I see my improving health and health markers and the freedom to eat all that I want as long as stick more or less with the macros above.

No more carb craving/binging urges after the first 30 days gives me a freedom I have not had the last 40 years of my life.

@Momonamission2018 I think keto may be a great option for you since you have an interest to try it. With that being said you must work with your healthcare providers because of your long term health factors but I am sure you know that. Getting some eating advice is fine but only get your medical advice from your current or new if required healthcare professionals.

At my age and 40 years of yo-yoing weight with 100%+ regains after each weight loss and my health failing fast I decided to stop dieting to lose weight forever more. Moving to eating whatever seems to improve my health and stop eating whatever seems to hurt my long term health since has worked out well in my case.

It is funny did not even know what keto was but on a hunch thought cutting out sugar and all forms of all grains might help reduce my pain levels and it has since Oct 2014. At the same time for mental clarity I got heavy into using coconut oil and that worked well. I learned more about Keto in another MFP sub forum then started to limiting my daily carb level to around 50 grams while meant I was doing keto.

If keto is not for you then you will find another solution if you keep your focus on improving your health. There are many keto food options. While I eat breakfast at home I tend to eat the other two out or at the office. I have gotten good at doing keto in fast food places with McDonald's being my go to place locally. It is hard to find unlimited great coffee with all the half and half cream you want for $0.59 at most places.

Best of success.
