GM all, I need help big time. I started my weight loss journey about three weeks ago and lost 7 pounds thus far but cutting alcohol and removing added sugar and trying to eat healthy and tracking calories. I need to loose 10 more pounds at least. I want to try Keto, what do I do ? I do HIIT 30mn a day / 5 days a week.

Restrict your carbs. The general suggestion is 20 net carbs a day, but check your macros to get a more accurate number. In the beginning, track everything. There’s an app called CarbManager that has been super helpful.

Thank you so much. How can I calculate my macros ?

FWIW I did keto for over 2 years and had great weight loss results, but once you go off of it you gain back 10 lbs in water weight. In addition, if you do it for long enough you may start to get vitamin absorption issues - even though a keto diet is typically heavy on B12, I developed a severe B12 deficiency because my body stopped understanding how to absorb it.

If you do keto, take a day a week where you have some extra (good) carbs. Load up on fiber and drink lots of water.

This is very helpful, thanks

There are a lot of resources online. The app CarbManager also has that capability

Consider adding intermittent fasting, which is easier to do when on keto (many folks end up doing naturally, as you are no longer hungry every 3 hours)

Also watch out for added carbs in soups, dressings, sauces, etc. And avoid any vegetable/industrial seed oils — technically keto but terrible for health as they are unstable and prone to oxidation

Some good resources/:

I can second intermittent fasting. I do it with key-tonic which helps me to not be hungry or hangry, and keeps me energized so I can fast the 16 hours.
