Hi Tammy, I am the author of a specific Diet Doctor article on this exact issue. See: https://www.dietdoctor.com/top-tips-lose-weight-low-carb-women-40;
This is a very common issue for women our age. It definitely can take longer. It seems that women who may have dieted often throughout their adult life can have even more issues, taking longer to reset their metabolism perhaps.
If you feel great, keep with it. If you read down in the comments of that post, Samantha eventually lost 17 lbs but it took more than a year. I have had other women tell me the same thing. Nothing for months and then it slowly started coming off. Follow the tips and see how you do. Go for feeling good, get cravings etc under control, don't weigh obsessively, try intermittent fasting. To get higher ketone readings you can cut back on protein and add more fat -- but note that Dr. Ted Naiman advises that once you are fat adapted cut back on fat you eat in order to burn body fat. Good luck. Anne Mullens

I am 60 and exact same experience (after 20 yrs of weight gain). After 6 weeks of strict keto finally I lost 6 kg in a week and about 500gm/wk in the month since. Consistent energy and mental clarity have been the best benefits *and dropped insulin levels!

hi...if it been 5 weeks....from experience...First do you really have Fat weight to lose?? second....Start fresh...make sure you are eating plenty of fat and portion is plenty. Alot of people... THEY lose faster if they cut FAT in the begining....or there is something your doing that need to be changed.
Start fresh and review what you do...Avoid Diet soda!! and check your meds...And don't weigh your self very often...Muscles weighs more than fat...well it takes up less room...some times you shrink with no weight lose...The first time I did it I didnt really lose.I stopped for a couple weeks....reviewed...lost 19 pounds first month. It does work!!!!!!

I have thyroid issues due to cutting calories too much over too long a time period. Is there a keto diet recommendation for a really sluggish thyroid?
