    I am brand new here, this is my week one of this New Way of Eating. I too need friends. I really need all the support and help I can muster. Adding you (If I can figure out how) ;))

    I think I should try keto . When I eat carbs I bloat and feel lethargic. Not sure how to do this or what to eat. Looking for help

    Missy, me too. I actually started keto for it's anti-inflammarory aspect. The weight loss has been amazing, but I'm mostly super stoked that I am no longer hobbling around like an old person, groaning from aches every time I stand up. My round moon-face and soreness are gone. The perpetual fatigue/tiredness is gone. I feel limber and energetic and am ALSO losing weight at a satisfying pace!

    I've tried keto so many times and I always fail. I don't know how to stick to that WOE. I'd love to try again and maybe having friends with the same mindset, way of eating and open diaries will help me stick to it?
    Please add me, I'd love some motivating friends :-)

    Happy, what seems to be your main pit falls? There may be a way to brainstorm solutions and plan ahead to overcome those obstacles?

    Heya! Been keto 2.5 months and LOVE it. Mutual support and sharing on MFP is super helpful! Any fellow ketoers, feel free to add me.

    Much like @Happy_Ells, I've tried keto many times and although my body loves it, I can't seem to stick to it.

    I've always gone solo, that may be the problem.

    This time, I'm hoping to learn from and be inspired by the community here.

    Try watching YouTube videos by Dr Eric Berg, and reading info online. There are helpful keto forums here and on Facebook.

    Click on their name to go to their profile. Then click on the add friend button. :)

    Hm. Somehow it doesn't giving me the "add friend" option. Maybe because I'm on the phone?

    From your phone (at least on my iphone) click on their name in the forum. Then it will pop-up a little window with some basic info forum info about them (as well as the ability to send them a message or ignore them on the forums). In that window, click on their name again and it will take you to their profile. On their profile there will be a little icon of a person with a + sign on it. That is the add friend button. Click on it and it will take you to another window where you can personalize your friend request with a message if you want. Then just click the checkmark in the top right of the window. It's a little convoluted! :/
