I would actually say that it's extremely easy, but only because any carb cravings I may have are met with the flour/sugar substitutes and pre-baked goods from LC Foods (holdthecarbs.com), along with other common carb replacements like shirataki noodles. It's pretty nice that I can freely eat awesome dishes like pizza with the crust fried in clarified butter that people who aren't on a high-fat diet would never touch.

That said, it would certainly take some discipline without something like LC Foods, and I suppose there's also the issue that keto kinda forces you to become an amateur chef (but I at least enjoy that aspect and don't find that it's super time-consuming).

While the social aspect is of course an issue, one interesting thing socially is that anything I cook for guests at home is LCHF, and people are always shocked when I mention it in passing later on; e.g. one reaction to my stevia ice cream was something like "I thought it was weird that I wasn't getting a headache like I usually do after eating sugar!".
