I actually tried keto some years ago on a lark. I quickly learned to avoid supermarkets since I could smell all the sugar in the baking aisle halfway across the store. Before posting this, I didn't think such a high-protein, low-fat dirt could result in ketosis but I was educated by another user on how the process actually works.

    I forgot about the smells. My sense of smell shifted to be way more sensitive to sugars and starches too - it was tough.

    I didn't bother trying to track fat intake and wound up losing 2+ lbs a month that way; not bragging, but my goal wasn't all that big. I probably could have done things faster by cutting more fat, but it was already hard enough.

    Fascinating, isn't it? It's like each of us is just full of survival mechanisms.
