Hey!
My name is Aubrei. I am a momma to 2 1/2 year old twin girls!
I am just wanting to make some friends on MFP that are on the same journey as I am!
I’m currently living a Keto lifestyle and it feels great! I would love to lose 40-50 more pounds.
So far I’m down 23lbs and I’m just taking it one day at a time! If you are on a similar journey or heck even if you just want someone to be friends with on here send me a friend request!!
Happy Tuesday!

    I'm doing Keto too. I joined to get serious by being held accountable to my macros. I'm going to keep it simple for the first month, then get into more complex recipies

    I just started yesterday...so far so good, just curious if you know of any low or no-carb crackers (not cheese crisps) that are available. That's the hardest part for me is snack foods because I'm a total addict to crackers and such.

    @Farrell73 the Keto diet is basically eating low carb and no sugar. Eating higher fats (healthy fats) and moderate proteins! I love it because it doesn’t feel like a diet. It can be a lifestyle! I can have butter, bacon, cheese, avocado, I really fee like I am winning! Haha I recommend going on Pinterest and typing in Keto diet! There will be tons of information and lots of AMAZING recipes!

    one thing to look up is YouTube cooking keto with christie she makes alot of keto friendly snacks or Keto Connect. I like the flat bread and bake it till it's a bit crispy like a cracker

    I’ve been keto for 9 days and have lost 12lb, but I am also fasting for 23 hours a day 5 days a week so I only eat at 6pm for an hour window Monday to Friday then just lunch and dinner at weekends. It’s been tough but it’s getting easier now. I only ate one meal a day for 6 weeks normal diet before I went keto so it wasn’t a total shock to my system. I’ve got a goal to hit by May 5th of a total loss of 25lb and I’m 1lb shy of halfway there! After that I want to lose another 15lb to reach my goal weight

    What do you eat for the hour window? Are you working out as well?

    I enjoy eating Keto. This is my 100th time to restart my journey. But I have been very motivated lately and am serious about finally getting all the weight off and keeping it off. I have between 40-50 pounds to go to meet my goal

    I am just starting out. I want Keto but will have to figure out if I can figure out how to get in that state. I mean, what IS "moderate" protein mean anyway (meat eater here!) I have 100lbs to lose, have done the paleo-ish, keto by accident in the past and lost a ton so easily and felt great.

    Then I gave myself 'permission' to eat xxxx and also fell and broke my leg/ankle very badly.

    2 years later I am back to my highest weight. Have been eating clean for a few days (mostly clean for about a week) and restarted an exercise program .

    Friends and supporters wanted, please!!

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