Hello everyone and Happy 4th of July!
Today I started my keto diet. I hope I am doing it right.
I am 47 years old female, 5’6", 155lbs (35% body fat) and here are my results for day 1.
132.1g of fat; 11.11g of carbs; 58.7g of protein; Total calories:1443
Does it look right? I don’t feel hungry but have a light headache.
Thanks!

Looks about right to me. You might try taking salt (just put a little on your tongue) to help with the headache. Also make sure you drink enough, the diet will act as a diuretic and will dehydrate you.
I’d also suggest taking body measurements, because in addition to losing weight body recompositioning can happen. You may find some time when you are losing inches, but not very many pounds. Just good to look for motivation wherever you can find it.
Congrats beginning a journey that should help to improve your health!
