How is keto going? 

Will be starting it August 1st, so in all honesty, not sure yet, lol.. 

Lol. Good luck! You will either love it or hate it, is what I heard.  

Hope you love the keto diet. I hear it is a good way to loose the weight. I am a bit afraid to try iy due to my diabetes. 

I'm always willing to try anything, doesn't mean my attempt will last very long, but I'll at least try?.. lol  

I'm good with everything but eggs and fish are sometimes things for me, other than that, my only issue will be totally keeping the all of the starches out of the kitchen, he does a good deal of the cooking and most of it or at least every single meal, consists of a starch which he makes me choose or makes me feel guilty for not eating/choosing one, he isn't realizing that #1, I don't like them and #2, getting them out of both of our diets would be great (at least let me eat what I want or don't want without guilt) 

Maybe you can share an article with him that explains the diet and why starches mess with it. And ask him to support you. Sometimes a very direct ask helps. 

Side dishes are the worst, my wife wants a, "side" with every meal, usually two, and she acts the same way; that I should be eating them with her. It used to be a fight, but she's mostly given up on trying to coerce me into eating garbage that I don't want.
