YukonJeff nailed it. The added bonus is shortly after you convert to this way of eating, little to no carb, you actually eat less daily which fuels the weight loss. You also get off the "hangry bus" I used to not be able to go 4-5 hours without getting cranky from blood sugar issues. Not uncommon now to go 15-20 hours between meals with no side affects.

Your getting it but still room for improvement.
Quit all sugar drinks also fruit and juices, the only fruit you can have is a avocodo, I recomend one a day. And quit all bread and pasta. If you want to eat bread and pasta make it from almond for coconut flour.
Do eat butter, salt and good fat, like olive oil, coconut oil, cheese,meat fish and eggs all you want, eat green lefy vegies evey day, keeps you fromgetting consipaded.
Dont avoid fat, and calories dont matter, eat animal fat. Justs avoid carbs and sugar of all types. You will lose weight eating fat belive it or not. I agree with you on everything except the part about green vegetables keeping you from getting constipated. That didn't work for me. It got so bad I had to resort to using MiraLax which my doctor told me wasn't good to use as often as I was using it because your body will start to depend on it. Instead, every night before I go to bed, I eat one apple. That worked pretty well until I found out I have Stage 3 kidney disease. When I ended up seeing a nephrologist, I was told to get off the high protein, low carb diet because of my rising creatinine levels. I don't eat as much protein as the diet dictates, but still stay away from carbs pretty much and eat lots of vegetables and do eat certain fruits mostly cantaloupe.
I don't care how nice the hand soap smells, you should never walk out of the restroom sniffing your fingers.

The issue with that is high protein diets are linked to brain issues my Doc said meat yes but portions the size of the palm of your hand not any bigger then that where fruits and vegetables don’t have that impact on the brain. Big difference in drinking juices and eating the pulp of the fruits on the intake side and digestion and absorbing the sugar.

I was given Rosuvastatin years ago to take but had to stop it and any other statin due to the leg cramps I was getting at night. Couldnt get much sleep with them it was pretty bad. You get those kinds of cramps you don't get back to sleep very easily. I hope you don't experience that side effect. No issues so far the Metformin knocks me out for a short nap I take the AM med about 4 AM when I let the dog out and check the boiler.

How many follow a "keto" diet? Then there are people who do keto but also fast regularity. My wife tries to do keto to control her diabetes (such as reduce her insulin amounts, she's type 2 but uses insulin--used to use LOTS of insulin). The problem is that for her truly following keto is hard. I'll eat whatever is around...

no keto for me.....balanced carbs, protein and fats...all natural foods and not much processed food at all... some pasta sauces is about it for processed foods. I keep around 2500 calories a day intake. 65, 6', 195, 34" waist. I do regular aerobic capacity training and regular strength training.

"Diets matter"
What a novel concept. I wonder why our medical professionals have been so slow to catch on to that truth.
As a guide, my biggest headache is obese clients. More often than not a bear we see (that my sorry old 64 y.o. butt could run out and shoot) may as well be on the moon, many of my hunters just can't get there.
I'm not trying to insult you guys who have put on a few too many pounds, but it just pains me to see so many outdoorsmen who aren't physically able to do what they would really like to be doing.

I think for most of us the cholesterol issues are more genetic rather than cholesterol that we consume. The blood sugar is the far more concerning issue. I also was up there with a sky high A1c but with exercise, proper diet and metformin my last A1c was 5.9
For those of us diabetics that are still producing are own insulin it is important to get exercise so that our cells can use that insulin to absorb sugar.
