Yea, whatever ends up working for you. I've done low carb diets, and they worked for me up until they didn't. I haven't been able to sustain them for over a couple of years at a time.
- Semaphor 4y agoThis year will be my 10 year anniversary on keto ;)
- errantmind 4y agoCongrats! That's an impressive number of years to stay on keto.
- kragen 4y agoi recently started dating someone who's been on keto for 20+ years
- Semaphor 4y agoI didn't even remember it was that old (researched it a lot before I started, but mainly focused on studies about the effects and issues, not history, plus, well, 10 years ago). Must have been hard on the early days without easily available nut flours and tons of recipes online.
- kragen 4y agoshe likes doing difficult things. she's pretty amazing actually it turns out it's more than a century old; see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ketogenic_diet#Diet https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ketogenic_diet#Diet
- kragen 4y agowhat were the most important practices for you getting started on keto
- Semaphor 4y agoNot living in the US where there's a ton of added sugar in things that don't need added sugar. Though now the disadvantage is that things like low carb wraps are not a normal store item, and neither monkfruit not alluose are allowed as food in the EU. But I guess by far the biggest part was actually that I've been working from home since 2008 and love cooking ;)
