I've been researching the keto diet and I would like to try it. Any advice for a beginner? Also would love to make friends with others living this lifestyle!

    I started Keto yesterday.. Would love to have a diet buddy. Also I'm new to MFP so any help will be appreciated.

    I started a few weeks ago and my advice would be to dive in. Also, drink extra water and add salt and Mg to your diet - I get incredibly thirsty as my body adapts. I have experienced headaches and fatigue as I adapt to keto too. Prepare yourself for a few rougher weeks.

    I started it for health: to help early arthritis, improve my autoimmune issues, and then to lose about 40 lbs.
