Keto, vegan, and IF

H4Z3L0413

Hello MFPs I am new here hoping to get inspiration from wonderful people on the same health journey as me. Looking to start keto, I'm vegetarian but pushing myself to go vegan soon. 27 until next month. Needing to lose at least 30lbs by September but overall target weight will not be met until I lose 115lbs. I'm from Texas. Fort Worth to be exact even though location is great for face to face meetings in the near future I don't mind internet friendships!

Hello and welcome! I suggest you check out the main low carber daily forum group here in MFP. It's where most of us Ketophiles tend to hang out:

Additionally, there are a wide range of eating styles followed by members of this group, some of which include vegetarian keto, vegan keto, etc.

I am lowercarb/higher fat + IF. I am typically an omnivore who loves beans n' greens best of all. My youngest has quickly gone from vegetarian to vegan. She is challenging me to do same. Although I am not luddite when it comes to food combining to get protein etc, (ex. legumes+grains), but keto kinds goes against the grains so I need to stalk other keto vegans for ideas to maintain protein macros.

This is a great app for support. I am not a vegan or do keto, but I do incorporate vegan desserts into my diet. Surprisingly, the recipes are very tasty.
