Want to reduce my weight

How much weight? What kind of weight? When do you want to achieve your goal by? How important on a scale of 1-10 is this for you? Just some reflecting questions for you in order to have a specific goal.
It's quite hard to do it properly, and not sustainable for the majority of people. You have no meal prep, starving out at a restaurant with your friends, you feel like you have to order, so you do, what do you get? how are you absolutely sure about the nutritional facts if they aren't labeled? It can be done, its just not easy. This isn't a diet where cheating on it can be done regularly, unless your cyclic. You are changing systems, constantly measuring and being aware. If you have all these habits and can do it, then it's great. If you can go without carbs in your life, if you can meal prep, if you do everything right, eventually it will become natural and a second language. Just because someone claims they lost 10 lbs in a week doesnt mean its magic. I take 6 pound poops, which to me, is more magical. To me, keto works great i've lost 40 some pounds, and my overall life is much better. Its more hectic so I consume lots of caffeine but thats another point. But just because I can doesnt mean you can. I only can because it works for me. If it doesnt work for you that okay. Keto isnt a last line of defense or the first. Its just a way of eating thats works well with me. Now if you want to try, go ahead. But if you fail and you fail pretty easily, than itll be tough. Keto was actually made for cognitive function and treatment, not fat loss. I dont do it for the fat loss. I'm with Mark Bell in the war on carbs. But that's me. Doesn't mean its for everyone.

Find what works for you, don't fall into the short cut trap. Work hard, be disciplined, you'll succeed.
