  I lost almost 80 lbs (and I'm only 5'5 on a good day) thanks to keto. I'm not saying it's a miracle diet, in the end if you lose weight it's because you're consuming less calories. What made keto work for me is that, because of it's very restrictive nature, I became acutely aware of everything I put in my mouth. I could have only 20g of carbs max per day, so I started reading in detail all the nutritional sheets on every food I bought. Of course, I also stopped buying basically all processed food. Not because they where high on calories or because they were unhealthy, just because they had carbs. It's been years since I went off keto, but I still read everything about the food I buy.

    This is very true. Though I am no longer on keto, I've gotten to the point where I must know the ingredients and nutritional content of every single thing I eat. Part of overeating/mindless eating is ignoring any data about what is being eaten. I am far more mindful now.
