Re: Keto diet -

Hey Jordan.
My mother has been on keto for the last few years and has lost a lot of weight while on it. Unfortunately, the diet is incredibly intertwined with her disordered eating which she has struggled with since before I was born. Really, I don't know if the weight loss is more from the low carb nature of the diet or the fact that she restricts her calories to such a degree, but I think for her it allows for socially acceptable restricting and ritualistic behavior around food.
While that may not represent all folks who are on it, that is my experience with the keto diet. I think for some who are sensitive to sugar or carbs, it can be beneficial. But it is incredibly restrictive and somebody with a history of ED may struggle.
something burning?
