    I dipped my toe in the Keto pool a month ago, but got really serious a week ago after doing research and purchasing the Keto friendly foods (flours, full fat foods, MCT oil). At first it was hard to wrap my head around high fat eating since low fat had been ingrained for years. After following 2FitDocs on YouTube and watching Dr. Keith lose weight, I decided to go in full force. I lost 4.6 pounds in my first 4 days, but have been up & down since then with a net loss of 3.2 pounds as of this morning. I just added MCT oil this morning, so we'll see what impact that has.

    Feel free to add me as a friend.

    Good luck to all on their new lifestyle journey!

    That initial big drop is mostly water weight. How many calories are you consuming each day? Calories are still the driving force for weight loss. How long have you been at the same weight?

    I am consuming 100 - 500 less than MFP recommends AFTER allowing for exercise. I've been hovering around the same weight (within 4 pounds) for 4 months. I did have a 10 day vacation in the middle of that, which didn't help.

    I'm 5'3" - 159 pounds. I'd like to lose 20 more pounds.

    Thanks for your response.
