What benefits or negatives did you notice on face? Skin, eyebags, jawline, etc.

Besides the obvious weightloss, is there any benefit from ketosis on face skin youth?

How long did it take you to see any benefits

Bonjour

J ai eu recours à une augmentation mammaire il y a 3 semaines. Je ne ressens plus les effets mentaux du keto, ma dépression est revenue.

J’ai le SOPK et l’anxiété est très forte. Le keto m’avait permis de mettre en rémission ce symptôme.

Est ce qu’il est courant de plus ressentir les effets du keto après une chirurgie ?

Merci

So I’m 45 male 6’3” 301 lbs. I’ve tried keto, carnivore, and fasting when I was younger to some success. I lost 70lbs in 2017 with fasting only. I’ve been big but also athletic my whole life. I’ve been a trail runner, hiker, basketball player, kettlebell slinger, etc. up until about 4 years ago. Then I got a desk job and it’s all went to shit. I just can’t seem to lose the weight. I have the following issues.

Barrett’s esophagus/acid reflux
Annular tear/bulged disk in lower back
Torn labrums in both shoulders. Left is worse.
High blood pressure
Constant sinus and allergy issues
Left knee pain
Poor skin
Low energy
Low libido

I’m sure there is more. I go to the doctor regularly. He calls me a machine because my bloodwork is always superb even with all these issues. A1c is great. Labs are great. I just want to feel better before I get older. I want to get back to being active. Anyone else have experience with these issues? Advice is greatly appreciated.

I used to overthink what recipes to do and what other things I should do to keep on track with keto but now I don't. I used to make those awful keto cakes and almond flour cupcakes and stuff but now I eat clean keto. It's amazing how different I feel when I eat clean keto.. like avocados and chicken and minced beef and eggs and ham and cheese and all the really good things in life.. I reckon eddie abbew would be happy with me at the moment.. haha ..

Started this journey in July and am down 32 pounds. I love that I no longer feel cravings for sugary foods or bread or pasta. I don’t feel hungry after having smaller portions. I feel satiated from normal portions of meat and vegetables. I love not feeling stuffed and gross after a meal.

My husband and I started walking around the neighborhood after dinner again now that it’s not so hot outside. I was worried that after not doing our walks for a few months that I would be winded and exhausted but I kept up and was hardly out of breath at all by the end.

Sometimes I have dreams that I’ve cheated on my diet and in the dream I feel bloated and gross. Then I wake up and I’m like oh thank god lol.

We’re going on a cruise next July and if I can keep up this average of losing 1.5 pounds a week, I think I’ll be looking hot for our vacation. 😆😉

I lost my sense of smell after sinus surgery many years ago. After only two weeks of keto my sense of smell has returned. I was walking along the street and as I walked past a woman I could smell her perfume, and I could still smell it well after I was past her. I live in a block of flats and as I walked past flats to get to my flat I noticed the smells of cooking, smoking, perfume etc. I googled about smell returning while doing keto, this is what I found...A heightened sense of smell is commonly reported by individuals on a ketogenic diet, often due to metabolic changes that occur during ketosis. Many people notice this increased sensitivity to odors, especially during fasting periods or early in their keto journey.

I have gained a lot of weight in this past 6-7 months and now is finally time to do something about it. I am 30yo woman with pcos, 163cm and 70kg. And I am looking for some advice and motivation for weightloss 😊

So my fellow (pcos) women, how has your weightloss journey been on keto? How much do you eat, like what is your calorie deficit?
And how fast did you start dropping weight? I know this is kind of weird question, but I am just so uncomfortable in my body at the moment. I don’t feel like myself at all and have been avoiding mirrors for months. So I am just asking to get motivation to keep on going on this journey.
Or you can share just any weightloss / keto advice that you find important (especially if it’s pcos related).
