If there is anyone on a low carb diet, preferably under 100gms/day, who has an open diary I can review? I am looking for ideas as I am just starting. Also, what do you people do about trying to stay healthy i.e. getting in all of your recommended fruits and vegetables in without going over on carbs? I am having a really hard time with this!!!

Any help will be appreciated!

Thanks again friends!!!

    You can take a look at mine! Just ignore today because I'm doing a weekend Fat Fast to get back into ketosis, as I may have knocked myself out of it. My carbs are lower than yours, but either way, my diary may have some ideas for you!

    I'm not "low carb" but ketogenic Paleo. Same idea but I don't use many processed foods and zero artificial sweeteners or "diet" foods. It's open to everyone, not just friends.

    Just a note: I've been doing this for a year and a half. I used to have my settings at 5% carb, 75% fat, and 20% protein. I use total carbs too, not net. Now I allow myself 10% carbs but usually stay well under.

    Edit: but I don't eat 1200 calories. Never will. MFP is way off on calorie recommendations. You should go to another site and figure out your TDEE.
