I'm three weeks in to a keto-ish diet - very low carbs (no bread, rice, pasta, etc) - little to no sugar. only a few grams here and there from fruit - no alcohol - focusing on high protein, fat, and fiber (meat, fish, vegetables, avocado, evoo) - also avoiding all processed/packaged foods as much as possible. eating high quality whole foods experience so far: - had 1.5 days of keto flu 4 days in (terrible) - appetite is lower and stabilized. less cravings, eating less naturally. after the first week, I noticed my taste buds adapted to really liking "healthy" food. - went from 203 -> 193 lbs during this time - better sleep - completely different relationship with my body of what "feeling full" looks like. I don't feel like "ugh i'm so full i ate too much and then go into a coma". Instead I just lose the desire to eat, but don't feel bloated or stuffed. It's not quite similar to the satiation I'd get from eating a ton of carbs though. it's different. hard to explain. - no crash any time of the day after eating food
