Has anyone been on keto on a long term basis? Like 3+ years? I’ve been on keto for a year, but don’t know if it’s the way to go from a long term perspective. Google results give me conflicting information health wise. Any firsthand knowledge and experiences would be beneficial.

Have you got your cholesterol checked?
I learned quickly that strict Keto can be harmful if you’re eating too much cheese or meat. My cholesterol went through the roof! HOWEVER, I did lose 40 pounds in 3 months with strict Keto and gym for an hour, 3x a week.

But long term, I’ve realized carbs are not for me. I’ve learned the things that cause inflammation for me and the foods that are bad. Now aware of calories and calorie intake. It’s all about finding a balance for yourself.

Now I do generally low-carb all week and stick to my low carb options for bread like rye bread and I don’t drink my calories. Minimal processed foods. But I do try to eat more fruit now so I stick to natural sugars every once in awhile.

Personally keto long term wasn’t sustainable for me, but low carb was. What are you thinking about doing?

That’s interesting I didn’t know that!

Truly depends on your sensitivity to SFAs or carbs.

Long time in the making; but we finally sold off from our 50% HWB short. We had two tests at the 3400 level, getting as high as 3420 today before the sell off. Momentum and pessimism over lack of stimulus could take us to the 3107 target quickly, nearly a 10 percent decline over the next month. Stay short my friends. It's going to get bumpy.
