I have to agree about the Keto diet.
I started a very loose version of Keto about two years back, focused on limiting the amount of grain/starch as possible without over thinking anything.
Small bowl of Corn Chex and a banana for breakfast, half a ham and cheese sandwich with chips and a piece of fruit for lunch and a keto recipe dinner with ice cream for desert. (I said very loose didn't I?
)
Following that menu and adding 1hr of strength training focused on core and glutes 3 times a week plus an hr on a trainer or cycling outside when the weather is nice 3 times a week (100-150 miles approx) I went from 200+lbs to 180-lbs and my waist shrank from 36" to 31" while my hips grew from 39" to 41".
With the holidays and several lingering illnesses (unrelated) I fell completely off my routine and am slowly working back into it.
My goal is to get down to 170Lbs and a 29" waist by summer. (fingers crossed)
