    I'd like to join in as well. I was on WW and don't want to pay anymore...lost #15 in 9 mo. I'm a carb addict, and would like to try keto for better results. Just bought "Simply Keto" by Suzanne Ryan for recipe suggestions.

    Hey cjv73, I LOVE Dr Becky! And her husband Keith. It is from their TwoFitDocs youtube videos that convinced me to give Keto a try.

    Interesting article on what you can put in your coffee (or in my case, tea) without breaking your fast:

    I had a slice of birthday cake yesterday so I'm retaining a bit of extra water today. It makes a surprising difference - very thirsty today!

    I'm a little late getting to this, but I'd like to try as well.
    I need some way to hold myself accountable!

    I have been losing and gaining the same 3-5 lbs for a long time now.

    I'm new to IF, so will start with 16:8 the first week and then see what happens from there. I will be doing keto / low carb / Paleo style.

    @AAMFitPal welcome! I see we already have something in common, we share the same height 😁

    With this group I definitely feel more motivated/determined to stick to this lifestyle change

    @cjv73 and @AAMFitPal well done on this weeks weigh in!

    How did you find week 1?

    For me it was ok at the beginning then more will power needed towards the end of the week when carb/sugar cravings kicked in. My energy was low for most of the week so I was unmotivated to do any sort if workout.
    Excited to see what week 2 brings.

    I use Precision All Natural Whey Isolate. My kids like LeanFit CompleteGreen Organic vanilla (vegan) protein powder; I also put it in all of their baking.
