I started keto two weeks ago, and I was around 25% body fat at the time. I've lost 9 pounds since then, but I'm wondering if any of it had been from muscle. Since my BFP is fairly high to begin with, could it be possible that I didn't since I have plenty of fat to draw energy from? I'm not sure what my protein intake is, but I'm guessing it's an adequate amount since I eat meat fairly often, but I have not been lifting at all. The only exercise I get is playing basketball or going for jogs.
I'm also a 5'10" 220 lbs male, and my caloric deficit has ranged from 800 to 1000 calories a day.
