New data from the Keto Cycle app has found users who create a grocery shop list days in advance are most likely to lose 10 percent or more of their body weight. The research also identified the biggest factors leading to successful weight loss on the Keto diet. 

The study involved 10,269 users on the Keto Cycle app. Their data team analyzed gender, age, total time on the app, user engagement, height, initial weight and last recorded weight as part of their research.

The data found that those who lost the most amount of water engaged in four common activities: they created a grocery list, tracked their weight and water intake, and prepared some of their meals in advance. The data suggests people who lost weight on Keto were consciously aware of what they were going to eat for their next meal.

Kristina Zalnieraite, who heads nutrition for Keto Cycle, said their data team wanted to identify the actions that contributed to the most success. 

“Most people just eat what is in the fridge and sometimes it’s not the healthiest option,” said Zalnieraite. “Our research found planning your meals days in advance prevents you from overeating or sabotaging your diet. If you eat too many carbs at the moment, you lose your state of Ketosis, making it harder to get back on track. But if you plan your meals in advance, it helps you stay on track.”

Biggest Factors that Lead to Most Weight Loss with Keto Diet

The data found 87.3 percent of all Keto Cycle users who followed planned their meals, logged their weight and water, and prepared their meals in advance lost the most amount of weight on the Keto diet. 39 percent lost between 5 and 10 percent of their initial weight. 

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention states that even a 5 percent weight reduction for overweight or obsese people will provide health benefits. CDC guidelines also say a 5 percent Body Mass Index (BMI) reduction will lead to improved blood pressure and lower cholesterol.  

Weight Loss Tips for Keto Users

Zalnieraite recommends consumers who want to increase their weight loss on the Keto diet participate in these daily activities.

• Prepare Meal Plans: Zalnieraite says planning and preparing a weekly meal plan helps with weight loss. Keto Cycle contains a database with more than 10,000 recipes, making it easier for users to plan their low carb meals when they are ordering their groceries. 

• Create a Grocery List: People who go to the grocery store with a grocery list are more likely to stick with the Keto plan since their kitchen is stocked with Keto-friendly products. Zalnieraite says when you go to the grocery store without a plan, you’re more likely to end up buying food that sabotages your Keto diet.

• Track Water Intake: Monitoring your water intake on any diet will increase weight loss, but it is especially important for a keto diet. Zalnieraite says carbohydrates are responsible for holding water in your body but once someone restricts carbs in their diet, they retain less water and get dehydrated quickly. Keto users will also feel fuller faster without eating additional calories. 

• Track Weight: Users who continually update their weight are more likely to hold themselves accountable. Zalnieraite says monitoring weight brings awareness to eating patterns, and keeps consumers on the right track. This approach will also help consumers keep track of their overall health such as the risk of heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and high blood pressure.
