I've found it's easier to create a set of rules that define my lifestyle than it is to commit to a diet. Like, think of strict keto as a way of living rather than a diet. Eat all you want, but sugar and carbs are no longer food. Don't focus on losing weight, focus on following the rules. The weight loss will happen in its own.
Exactly this. Being able to eat unlimited amounts is liberating and doesn't feel like a diet. On Keto there will be sugar withdrawal for the first few weeks, and that will be rough, but being able to stuff yourself with allowed food (cheese, meat, 100% chocolate, etc) makes it much more manageable.
