 Machine learning and weight loss have recently been combined in a fascinating project. A blogger has used a deep neural network (DNN) machine learning model to predict their own weight loss after following a ketogenic diet for several months. The DNN model was trained on the blogger's weekly weight data, allowing them to visualize their expected future weight loss and calorie deficit rate. Additionally, the blogger utilized the Harris-Benedict Equation to estimate their daily calorie needs at different points in their weight loss journey.
