Getting back to keto, new here!

Partysize1

Hey all, pretty new to MFP. Previously was on keto for 2.5 years and lost about 107lbs. Looking to jump back on the train and keep going towards my goal weight! Looking for anyone wanting to share keto recipes, snack ideas or workout routines.

Welcome!

I don't know much about keto, other than it's wildly popular. I'm sure you won't have any trouble finding some good keto peeps around here.

Since you're new, here are a couple of links that I think you’ll find very helpful:

http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/1234699/logging-accurately-step-by-step-guide/p1
http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/1080242/a-guide-to-get-you-started-on-your-path-to-sexypants/p1

The first covers accurate logging and some of the tools in MFP to help you make things easier. The second discusses caloric needs and setting goals. These are two of the most commonly-referenced threads on MFP; tons of people point to them as being sources of great info when you're just starting out.

For more friends check out these threads, which are fairly popular:

Good luck!

Welcome. Can I ask how much you gained back after losing so much?

I haven't gained any back yet, just stayed in place, luckily for me!

Well then you're already a success--it's hard to maintain weight after losing. Since you were so successful with Keto, and want to continue, you should know that there is a keto group that I think is very active. If not, there are many threads everyday on the keto diet. Just jump in and make friends. I'm not a good choice since I live in Italy and we eat lots of carbs. Good luck.

I appreciate that! I definitely want to continue, but finding it hard to get back into ketosis with my small cheats every so often. Back to the drawing board with me and I just joined the group! Thanks again

I've been utilizing MFP entirely. Make sure you get your macros by using a calculator and then just be sure to track everything here in MFP! It's a bit tedious at first, but it's extremely helpful when trying to commit to keto if you need any other information I almost always have my phone on me!
