Do you "keto?"

I was doing the ketogenic diet for 1.5 years until last year when I became pregnant with my son. None of the foods that I could eat doing keto, really seemed appealing to me and the ones that I did, you're not supposed to eat while pregnant such as lunch meat as long as it stays cold. Seems weird to me but already being a high risk pregnancy, I try not to play with fire more than I need to. Anyway, so my son is 4 months old now and I went back to keto a couple months ago but then we (my husband and I) had a "cheat" day which has now become a cheat 3 weeks! I need to desperately get back to doing the keto diet. It worked well for me, not just to lose weight, that was just the added bonus but my body felt better. I didn't have acid reflux anymore. My muscles didn't ache. Anyway, I need to get back with it today whether my husband decides to join me in my journey or not. I need this for ME as it works for me. I was just curious if there was anyone else on here who did keto?

I started the Keto Diet in July of 2019. I lost weight and like you felt better. More energy and almost pain free.

That's what kept me going most, I liked FEELING good. Both mentally and physically!

@Tampa_girl7 I need to get back with it. I miss it. I wish I wasn't struggling so much to do what I know is best for me

@Icey88 I absolutely love it. I plan to eat this way for the rest of my life. I wish that I had started earlier in my life.

I eat plenty of vegetables and fruit. So, not keto.

I don't like many veggies. I do miss some fruits though.
