    OK!!!! The Low Carber Daily Forum FB page is up! Im sorta 'polishing' it up a bit... I will need everyone to send me a private message here ( to help maintain privacy for you all) with your Facebook name so I can send an invitation to sign up.

    PLEASE UNDERSTAND: I am not responsible for the information you have on your individual facebook pages. If you do not want others to see personal/sensitive information, you will need to make the necessary privacy setting changes on your own. I will be asking our original Low-Carb queen if she wants to share administration efforts, after all, she keeps us going and on our toes...

    This is for US and US ONLY: Low Carb followers regardless if its medical-directed, Atkins, Paleo, or personal choice...

    Lets avoid controversial topics (religion, politics, that sort of hubbub). We are a GREAT group of people here of all walks of life... whether you are straight, gay, transgender, crossdresser, alien, sub-human, or whatever classification you go by, this is a safe place for us to continue as an extension. I think metal will agree that we need to be as respectful as possible and I know we wont have the typical problems of other 'gathering thread followers' ... Also, please keep this in english... if we can respect the rules here under MFP guidelines, I think it would be fair to say we should 'migrate' those rules to our site...

    PLEASE NOTE: Personally, I am ok with profanity so long as no one is slingling it to be offensive to another person on purpose. I think we are all mature adults here and know 'when to say when'... so, consider this a "lets give it the old college try"... We will test the waters and go from there!

    This FB will give us the ability to save recipes there - and not have to dig through several pages here to find that 'one' recipe. We can also post our journey there as well.

    We can post PHOTOS!!! WOOHOOOO! No need to use photobucket anymore!!!! When you post your photo, you will be able to edit the 'photo description' by entering in the recipe there. If we keep the recipe with the photo, that will help everyone to get that one photo/recipe all together.

    PLEASE NOTE: For now, the age settings are for 18 and over. This can be changed down the road. I think for the sake of getting started, we go from there and expand down the road.


    If there are any questions, please send me a private message here. Otherwise, lets start adding ya!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Just tested the photo album section.... this is running PERFECT! Everyone will get to set up their OWN PHOTO ALBUM! Once you set up your individual photo album, you can then continue to add photos to only your album! Talk about organization!!! This will help when you remember the person who posted 'that one recipe in particular' but you cant remember what it was called... this helps alleviate that!

    I sent you a PM. I am down another 2.6 pounds this morning. I am just shy of 30 now since July 30th. I'm sitting here eating a breakfast of scrambled eggs cooked in butter with tomato/bell pepper/onion and shredded cheese and bacon along with some strawberries and raspberries. All the low-carb haters can keep their bowl of cold cereal. My plate is a pile of deliciousness.

    Leanne.. no one has ever said this thread is going... I dont know why you would think its going ...its ok....

    We need a much better venue for recipes, photos and such and having our own 'forum' on facebook allows us that.
    Everyone can create their own INDIVIDUAL recipe album which is nice... once created, the individual owner can post their own recipes into their own album.... it has a place for posting 'note-blogs' as well, a 'wall' - and its only for those doing Low-Carb lifestyles...

    You really should consider giving a facebook a once-over... it really is a great site and you yourself can control how much you want others to see - thats excellent!

    .Great - NOW I have to start all freakin' over because facebook's newest updates didnt refresh on my individual... Spent a good three hours last night working on this crap for NOTHING. And another additional2.5 hours today for NOTHING...

    Not to mention, its not MY fault it wasnt working the way others wanted it.... cant control facebook if THEIR damn updates arent coming through... this was a bad freakin' idea.... Im going to get off the computer and spend some time with my husband and get ready for work... Ill tackle this again in a little bit before leaving, and again tonight when I get home around 12:30am....

    Ive got a preliminary page redone - but as a "Group" - and Im going to be very blunt, this one SUCKS. The other page I created was much better, it was going to help keep recipes and photos in a much more organized fashion....

    This "Group" setting does give privacy, but its not going to be anything different than what we are doing right now here.... you will have to dig and dig and dig for recipes posted...


    There is nothing personal about posting a recipe or a photo of that recipe and there is 0 risk whatsoever..... as originally stated.

    As I was dressing for work, I realize that some people had misconceptions on what the FB page was about....

    This is an ****extension**** page... its a pain in the *kitten* to find someone's recipe in a thread... Its a pain to have to flip through the pages to find that ONE recipe someone posted if you didnt have the chance to save it to your own computer.

    My suggestion, which was discussed with Metal_beau (as she is the original thread creator here) was that it would be good to have a place where we can have an easier way of posting recipes, photos along with that recipe (if we want) so that anyone and everyone can find them.... with the mere click of a button.

    There is nothing personal-related that must be posted there, its just for recipes.. nothing more and nothing less.

    I worked three hours through updating Facebook's ever changing new-things, had lots of error messages last night as they were probably updating more applications.... threw in another 2.5 hours today....

    I will keep the original LCDF "Community" page because of its set up allowing more organized access for our recipes, photos and such. What you post is up to you. This is meant to help everyone doing Low-Carb.... keep your personal information here. Just like metal_beau and I said, this thread does not stop....ever.

    I hope you will consider sharing your recipes and photos on the facebook page that I set up for all of us... Its the same name as our thread "Low Carber Daily Forum"... Thats all it was originally intended for....
