I am looking to start Keto. Main goal is to lose weight. Is it possible to do Keto while being vegetarian (eggs allowed)?
I’m a female, 5’5”, 180 pounds. Try to exercise 3-4 times a week.
Thoughts?

Also I eat plenty of dairy right now (almost 3 weeks in, 5 pounds down) but I may try to work it down next month a bit. I love cheese and I just measure it out so as to not over eat.

Also get a food scale for sure!!

Thanks EY1. Definitely have the food scale and I am with you on cheese. I love cheese and all dairy products in general

Yup! There are lots of vegetarian ketoers. Instagram is great for inspiration. Check out @veganketomeals on IG.

Heads up, you may feel depleted quicker when working out! Happens to non-vegetarian ketoers and not a big deal. Many many ketoers lose weight without exercise at all.

What should my goal be for macros? I’ve heard staying under 20 net carbs is the best. Also read that for weight loss, minimizing dairy is best?

Yes!
