[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here - thank you for those with helpful responses. There’s always gotta be one though 🙄

There’s been a lot of discussion in this board around low carb. So I was trying to figure out what most ppl meant. I feel like Keto is it’s own animal. But it sounds like a mix in the responses. 
 
I find keto specifically hard to sustain because it’s so easy to get knocked out of ketosis. Having fats constantly be the most consumed macro - over protein - isn’t always the easiest. I had the pee strips too and would watch this happen.

And to the pp above - I never said the diet “didn’t work.”  It for sure did. I lost weight. But I also like pineapple sometimes. So it’s not necessarily right for me. I also felt like Keto taught (me, personally) poor eating habits with it’s focus on high fats.

Different diets are going to be sustainable for different people, so it’s not you, it’s that the diet is wrong for you. I lost weight by quitting alcohol entirely, having just one or two servings of simple carbs a day, and I tried to eat carbs with a good amount of fiber, protein, and fat so that I didn’t get hungry. I focus way more on protein than fats. I believe that when my calories aren’t in the form of foods that I can see and chew, they don’t satisfy me mentally as much. So 200 calories of cashew butter is not going to fill me up as much as 200 calories if chicken. So what you’re saying about fats resonates with me since fats except for avocados are usually so liquidy. [/quote]
