May I ask if you would share more about why you've chosen to follow a ketogenic diet with the ileostomy, @mrigs?

Thank you @kanaazpereira for responding so quickly and guiding me in the right direction. Honestly, I’m only doing the Keto Diet to support my husband because he wanted to jump start his own weight loss. He understands if I can’t do it fully with him. I just wasn’t sure if ketosis was a good idea for me, although I’m sure I’d benefit from just cutting back on carbs and sugar.
