Hello Everyone!
Just signed up trying this app, I love my sugar and carbs:/ drinking coffee for breakfast picking on junk through out the day and binge at night may take me a lot of time, but going to try my hardest and water drinking is so hard for me! I drink a little everyday but I know I need to try more! Im quite curiouse what is Keto? And has it worked out well for anyone? Thanks

Keto is an ultra low carb, very high fat, moderate protein diet. I personally couldn't ever do it...I don't eat much in the way of things like added sugars or "junk" food, but I enjoy my veggies and fruit and oats and beans and lentils and potatoes and such. I also can't fathom eating enormous amounts of dietary fat...it just seems disgusting.

Keto is a type of calorie restriction plan that drastically cuts carbs, which can be a good tool to use if those are the kinds of foods you eat too much of. It works if you count carbs and keep a calorie deficit. It's under 50g carbs. Low-carb is more forgiving with an upper limit of 100-120g of carbs. But you can still lose weight if you don't cut carbs. Weight loss requires only a calorie deficit over time.
People will attribute all kinds of things to Keto, both good and bad. In truth, it can give some people appetite suppression if they find fat super-satiating. I was still hungry all the time on keto, but I've always been ravenous since birth. I used Keto to help me limit foods I tended to overeat, and I lost weight and am now maintaining with low-carb 5 days of the week (so I can prioritize micronutrient dense foods). Many people don't ever start to like keto foods, don't find it satiating, and do better with other methods.
Should you decide to try it, the 2 most active keto groups are easily found among the Groups: Keto (just keto) and Low Carber Daily Forum (all low-carb plans are welcome there.)
The healthy version?
Wow thats great! Thank you!
