10 lbs F/26/5’5”/started at 182

Nice!!

Usually lose around 5-8 pounds the first 1-2 weeks, anytime I re-start keto

It’s almost entirely water/glycogen

You can’t really lose more than a pound of fat per week, without also losing lean mass, or without an insane exercise regimen

Hah sorry, missed that. 5’7”, 145lb, M, 30 y/o. Bodyfat percentage wavers between 15-18% as measured on dexa scan.

To get lower I’d need to eat leaner meats, do more HIIT, smoke less weed, and/or quit consulting — but I’m decently happy where I am. 12% would probably be ideal for me — ab definition and lean/strong — if I can get there

Lost 8 lbs M/23/5’10” didn’t see the real physical change until week 4 onwards

In terms of net carbs for the most part I stayed between 20-30g, but I found myself to still be in ketosis even if I hit 40/50

I didn't apply for a job that would have set me up for the future in the government. I wouldn't have to worry about money or future jobs. My boss had just given me a small pay rise and talked up the future and so I felt good. I now severely regret not applying for the job and cannot stop thinking about it to the point of insomnia and depression. I even contacted the employer but too late. It's a small town and rarely anything comes up. I hate myself and feel like I failed my family. :(
