Hi r/loseit,
For me, as someone who has been struggling with weight fluctuations a lot, it is most important to have a consistent decrease in weight as a result of the diet. Unfortunately, finding one looked more like a trial and error with almost 0 success rate. I tried many, and honestly, it felt like a search for a perfect star that never would happen.
Until I started recording my diet types and my weight daily, I used simple google sheets and a concept of AB testing to alternate weeks of different diets. With this and simple math & stats on top of the results, I found that my perfect diet is keto - as it results in the least fluctuation in my weight.
With this learning, I thought that it's worth tracking things like this all the time. I like the quantifiability of the effect and can see this being applicable to any field.
The main catch here is that you need to be consistent, just create a daily reminder to check-up and update that excel sheet. Don't worry about the math. The main thing I was doing is comparing averages, as well as laid off some nice charts.
