    Congrats! Just don't get discouraged! because a lot of people lose a handful of lbs the first week or two and then you stand still at that weight for another good 2-3 weeks. (Not all, but some) I was one of those people. But the scale will start moving again, I promise. Just keep at it! :)

    Thanks... i believe if you stay in track with your macros you will be good to go. I do measure every single thing that enters my mouth

    What a great start!! Way to go! It's true about losing lots of water weight in the beginning. So important to drink as much water as you can stand. I found adding electrolytes (I use HyLite) made a huge difference in how I felt going through the keto flu. I'm getting ready to hit my month mark and have just hit that awesome keto energy everyone was talking about.

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