Likewise, I did (and continue to do) keto for the last 6 months and lost 50lbs. 3 Weeks ago I started Semaglutide while continuing to do keto and it's just made everything easier. I've lost another 10lbs in the 3 weeks, am logging all my meals and taking macro goals into account. What's better is that because I was already "fat-adapted" as they say in /r/keto, my body isn't starving in a caloric deficit. It's just burning more fat as ketones.

Yes, I am trying to hit 100-150g+ of protein per day, yes I am in a caloric deficit. No, I don't feel like I have lost any muscle mass, but I do feel a lot more active at 60lbs lighter.
