Dieting in Medical School

So, I need to lose some LBs and I'm debating on going on a low calorie diet (its called Medifast, prepackaged easy food...going for ketosis), but am concerned about how this will affect my cognitive functioning during school. Should I put it off until summer? (I know it will ultimately be unique to me, but I wouldn't mind some educated guesses). Thanks

You may need to consult your primary care professional about any specific diets and your health/cognitive functioning. The Student Doctor Network is not a resource for these types of questions as they can be misconstrued to constitute medical advice. This thread will therefore be closed.
