I have an appointment with her Monday. She has a DPC office so for $50 per month I have 24/7 access to a keto expert. I hope she can give me good advice on pushing through the plateaus. One wrinkle with this last plateau was me getting a cortisone shot. That caused almost instant weight gain. I'm sure it was fluid but that still makes the scale go up.

Try to increase your activity level as you drop weight and feel like more and more. In the last month I've bought a mountain bike,got spider bit and got two antibiotic shots plus a steroid,and 7 prednizone tablets. I still rode about 20 miles of backcountry and lost 7 lbs. I used the steroids to give me an energy boost and burned it off while eating just as much as I needed to keep going.

All I'm telling you buddy is that, as your body heals,and make no mistake,being fat is just one symptom,you will feel like doing more and more and you will be even less hungry with less energy swings.
