Hi lybrate-user, I can understand that you are very busy, but you can still stay physically active during the day. To lose weight a healthy and balanced diet can definitely help you. Fad diets like ketogenic work for a short term and can cause harm as eliminating any food group is not a good idea. Rather than short term gain, look at a healthy lifestyle change which will give you long term results. Regards Sarika.
