Welcome MacGuy,

You have found a great forum to connect with other individuals going through the same journey and the Success Stories, which compared to some weight loss groups, has quite a few men. Grav, Thud, others, and Ken, who amazingly, has similar stats and goals to yours. http://forum.lowcarber.org/showthread.php?t=475679

And when you list Central Indiana, my thoughts go directly to Dr Sarah Hallberg in Layfatte. If you don’t want to use her program, she has had a great group of folks who meet for support in person (Jayne) share tips etc. https://m.facebook.com/pg/Dr.SarahHallberg/posts/

ADD: I had not heard of Keto360...it is a new program from Dr Axe. The Medical Doctors who have been using Keto diets for years do not charge for supplements, Ketone activators or anything beyond the office visit. Dr Eric Westman suggests only a generic multivitamin, and a salty broth twice a day (and those cubes will do). https://www.dietdoctor.com/se/wp-co...starch_diet.pdf


If buying a "program" will help you stay on track, then go for it. But wanted to add when read it that Keto360 is from Axe, a chiropractor, selling stuff like caffeine, protein powders, Ketone activators, etc. that are designed for his profit, not so much to benefit you on a real Ketogenic Diet.
You do not need to buy Anything but Real Food
Here are Dr Hallberg's 5 Super Simple Food rules also at above link

Look around all the sub-forums, maybe start a Journal, join a buddy group, ask questions, do whatever is comfortable for you at this point. Great start!
All the best,
