    There are people who are doing vegan or vegetarian keto, but since it's a lot more restrictive it can be challenging to find people who are successfully using it long-term for weight management.

    Makes sense! Vegan is pretty challenging alone.

    If your library has it, check out ketotarian by Will Cole. He has lots of "mostly plant based" ketogenic ideas and recipes. He's basically in favor of vegan+fish. He was a long time vegan who added some fish himself.

    Ovo-lacto vegetarian for 44+ years now, thin to fat to obese and back again. This is how I lost weight 3 years ago, and have stayed at a healthy weight since (should work for vegans, pescatarians and meat-eaters, too):

    I've been vegetarian for 12 years now. Works fine but you can gain weight so you still have to watch it!!!!

    Awesome to the long term vegetarians! 3 years in and I'm just getting started. I'm looking forward to removing dairy also. Time to make it a lifestyle instead of a diet.

    I’m pescatarian and decided against keto. I’ll go low carb and law calorie and eat lots of wonderful veggies!
