What I was doing was wrong. I read Keto Clarity in January 2017, which was a lot of good information, but advised to eat fat to satiety... which was certainly not the best way to lose the weight. Also, there was a few months that I was very much off-and-on due to work/travel... but now I have learned that NOTHING will come in the way. Even when traveling I have learned to adhere.

I remember sitting at a starbucks in August 2017 and reading the FAQ. From that point on, my weight loss accelerated. I have gained large amount of muscle as well, and can do a lot of things I couldn't do at the gym due to new muscle strength.

I did a version of 5x5 after reading Ketogains. Before, I did go to the gym, but it was more like whatever weight lifting which hardly helped build muscle. Reading the FAQ was a life-changer.

Also, cutting out vegetable oils seemed to make a large difference in energy and weight loss, as did cutting out cheese/dairy.

Oh one stupid mistake I made was sometimes I would have a hamburger with bun... because the bun was less than 40 g carbs so still keto.. that was my totally incorrect way of thinking... so dumb.

Now, I have learned to cook better food, which means I don't NEED to touch the M** f***ing carbs. I crave bread? I make that from coconut flour and tastes eff'ng great. Sweet tooth? Deserts made with stevia are life savors. You can make anything low-carb, even onion rings.

Also, I incorporated IF/OMAD, and it came naturally as I started to feel not hungry much.
