Low-carb healthy fat living. Intermittent fasting. What’s your why?

I started intermittent fasting + relatively low carb 6 weeks ago and it is working better than any other diet I have done. I simply skip dinner 2x a week. To help me with that I drink vegetable broth instead which feels like you are eating something but is zero calories. The only other thing is I have high protein low carb lunch, often scrambled eggs. Very little bread. Oatmeal and walnuts for breakfast. In the past I just counted calories and that worked, but here I don't really need to count.
I started this to lose weight (6-1, 225 - trying to get to 185, I am at 205 now) and also to see if that helps with my foot neuropathy.

That is really great news! @rickhood. I also have had better luck with the intermittent fasting and relatively low carb and don't really feel the need to count calories. I just use a 4 or 6 hour eating window daily and am surprised that I don't really feel hungry and the need to snack at night like my old self with my Weight Watchers days. Have you used the Zero fasting app? - https://www.zerofasting.com/ I use the free version and it makes it so easy to follow a plan.
