    I Started last week. Still not sure if the loss is water or weight.

    Hi!! I do keto and IF since the end of march 2019 and I’m down 48lbs total (I got MFP after I had already lost a bit) it’s been so easy that I know I can sustain this for the foreseeable future.

    Hi. I’m not very diet literate... what is IF and MFP?

    IF is intermittent fasting - some people find it helpful to eat all of their calories for the day within an 8-hour (or smaller) window of time. 16:8 is a common option. It's not necessary to do that to lose weight, but some people find it easier.
    MFP is My Fitness Pal. :)

    Just wrapping up my first week and I’m down 7.8lbs so far (water). My insomnia is horrible though. Anyone else struggle with that??

    Ever since I bought a weighted blanket, I sleep like a baby. Hope you find relief from the insomnia.

    I've been on the keto diet (technically atkins but almost the same thing) and I'm down 11.8 pounds after only 16 days :)
    Like cynthobrien said, its been so easy.. and I've actually really been enjoying it apart from the weight loss too. I have so much more energy and just feel better in ways I didn't expect.
