I'm 21 y/o and have been abusing food for all those years. I'm glad to hear it's not just me who found it a bit of a struggle with keto. I'll join the group on here. Hopefully, I can get back on the wagon for longer than 24 hours.

I did keto about a month ago for three weeks and lost 20lbs in water weight. I cheated for one day and have struggled to get back on since then!

I changed my MFP goals. I put 'lightly active' instead of 'sedentary'. My updated calorie goal is 2,290. Does this sound more accurate? Thank you all for your help, by the way.

But I'll try the maintenance thing to sort of ease my way into cutting calories.

I've heard about that but I wasn't sure what it was exactly. I was thinking it was fasting for a day or so (like religious fasting). That's a good idea. I haven't really researched IF, but it sounds like it's right up my alley.

I do most times! I'm glad I'm not the only one who does this. When I wake up every morning, I am focused and motivated. By the time night comes around, all that motivation is gone and I just eat whatever I want to. It's probably because I've eaten whatever I wanted to for twenty-one years. :#
