The cutting out of the sugar is great..clearer mental focus, more relaxed, no aching joints, lots of energy.

I love Keto. I need to stop procrastinating and just fucking go back to it. My busy schedule and tight money is keeping me from taking care of myself. Never felt so horrible in my life. But on Keto, I was so energetic and happy. Depression was gone. Negative mind was gone. I was fucking on fire. I need to get that fire back.

The first time I tried keto I nearly passed out after three days. I tried again 25 years later and found it really easy. The only difference was, I cut down the carbs for the first two weeks. I didn't go straight into it. I lost about 40lb in 5 months and went from size XL to Medium. My taste buds reset themselves, and I didn't miss the carbs and sugars at all. Hope that helps you guys that are scared to try. No rush. Ease into it.

The first week of keto is hard but after that it’ll feel easy and then you’ll feel happier to continue

I did this diet last summer for 1 month. I lost 32lbs. And I never counted calories or took any supplements. I drank a ton of water and basically always made sure my body had food. Simple. It's easy people. High fat + medium protein + a ton of water will make sure your body is healthy.

i did keto for 7 days and lost 10 lbs ( obviously most at the start is water weight) i need to get back into keto now because it makes me more energetic during the day.

The first week is the hardest, just get through that part and don’t give up! I’ve been doing lazy keto where I don’t count anything and just eat the suggested foods and cut the bad ones. I’ve been practicing a bit of restraint when eating as well, but not so much that I feel deprived. I don’t work out (no gym here and I’m not one to do it at home). I’m steadily but slowly losing weight anyway. I definitely feel better. I’ve dropped a dress size in three weeks. I no longer get hungry so fast, no longer need to eat breakfast. I’ve realized that when I eat carbs they burn off really fast and cause cravings for more-so they become a self fulfilling prophecy that keeps perpetuating themselves forever. The more you eat-the more you need. And you need to eat them sooner. Eating protein and fat (and veggies on the side) keeps me full longer, so very much longer that I don’t need to eat as frequently or as much. At first giving up breakfast was hard. It took about a week before my body was programmed to not feel hungry at this time of day, and now a few weeks later it doesn’t even occur to me to want it. If I want eggs, I can eat them at lunch or supper time instead. Sometimes breakfast food for supper is fun and makes it easy to throw together a quick meal for the family.

I lost 40 lbs in 2 months on this diet alone. No exercise. 223 to 183. It works.

Me : secretly goes on diet**
My parents : *WhO WaNts PiZzA!*

[BellaZ]

I am going to start this diet TODAY! I want to get back to me and be in good health. I am considered morbidly obese, and started working out 4x a week, cut smoking and drinking and cut pork and sugar from my diet. It’s only been 2 weeks but I’ve seen no results. So hopefully this keto diet will take me to the next level! Wish me luck!
