Good afternoon! I have started a Keto style diet last Monday so today is day 6. I am 5'11, 295 pounds, I was 400 pounds a year ago (the bulk got a little out of hand haha!) I lost the 105 pounds just by slowly adding healthier choices in. I have been stuck in the 290s now and need to push pass the barrier hopefully keto will help. This will document the awesomness that is my daily diet.
Breakfast, 5 whole eggs (omega 3), 28 grams cheese,one cup spinach
Lunch, Two hamburger patties, one cup spinach
Snack, one scoop whey isolate, one scoop collagen, 1oz almonds
Dinner, either chicken thighs, pork chops, or steak, broccolli, spinach, cheese, bacon bits ontop of veggies.
Before bed, just one scoop of whey
Please offer any suggestions and thanks!

The reason you've been stuck is because you were eating too many calories. Keto isn't magic: it will only work if you consume less calories than your TDEE.
If you prefer avoiding carbs that's fine, it's just not necessary.
The diet you listed is probably too high on protein. Assuming your target weight is 200 pounds, a good protein intake would be 160 gram protein.
You should be getting more than ~25 gram fiber, so eat more vegetables.Recommended science based fitness & nutrition information:
