    Personally, my body doesn't tolerate a high-fat diet well, and I prefer a more balanced diet anyway. Some choose to go that route because they feel more full eating that way, so it helps them stay in the calorie deficit required to lose weight. But the calorie deficit is how any diet creates weight loss, and many prefer a less restrictive approach that better matches their preferred WOE. If it sounds unpleasant to you, you may not be willing to stick with it for the long haul, which is the key to any effective weight loss plan.

    There are lots of threads from people starting keto right now with discussions about pros/cons and some good advice from experienced posters. I would encourage any interested to read up on it and know what to expect before starting. :)

    I searched for a previous keto discussion since many of our more experienced posters aren't around during the holidays. Maybe you can find some info here:
