I'm still on your diet since 6. Apr., six weeks now. Always wanted to share my experiences with you, but didn't yet because of a) some setbacks I am still not sure how it will play out and b) my graphing software isn't ready ;-).

But I intend to keep it up until I am at my GW -or- continuing somehow is not possible -or- I notice I stop adhering without really knowing why (which is the most frustrating error mode, also the one I expect: it just becomes too inconvenient or hard. But maybe it is not about willpower but something else, undiscovered.)

Anyway, if you want I can share my data (body weight, grams/kcal butter/cream consumed, maybe steps, RR, keto breath/urine, events) so far. But you have to do the graphs, if you want them ;) Do you have specific questions?

Results are vaguely promising. My current working theory is that it's still caloric restriction, but easier to persevere because of a) the non-negotionable rules and b) low carb. Caloric restriction because I am below my TDEE and I could easily (and want to) raise my caloric intake by upping the butter and cream amount. But I am scared, so I don't.

I would love to do this. Cream tastes fucking amazing. That said I have lactose intolerance (possibly casein too).
