Hi Im Courtney. I have been on MFP for a while now. I've bounced back and forth within these pesky 15 lbs for a few years now. I've finally met my first goal and have a few more to accomplish. I have tried the Low carb diet in the past and I really enjoy it. Even though im still new to it (and its not brain surgery) I would like a support group to rant, rave and share!
Ill try to check in once a day (with a surgery coming up I hope I will still have the mind power to do so ;)
PLEASE someone join me so I can have some sort of motivation! :)

    I follow Primal Blueprint. It is low carb for weight loss but moderate carb for weight maintenance - the importance is the type of carb - veggies and berries. There is a paleo support group here in the forums but we welcome all low-carbers. (I stick with the low carb because my body just doesn't like grain carbs at all.

    And me! I've tried numerous other methods of eating, but for me the low carb seems to work best.

    I'm in! My husband is also on MFP but he is super anti - low carb so I have NO support here!

    I do Atkins, and there's a thread called Atkins Support Group, but they offer a lot of encouragement, recipes and ideas for low-carb in general.
  • Hi there. Please add me in!

    I am day 17 into a low carb regime (20-30gs max per day) and really want to crack it this time!

    Count me in. I started low carb about 7 weeks ago and am down 14 lbs, I'm truly shocked. My fitness pal isn't really set up for low carb, it keeps telling me I don't eat enough but I feel great and I'm not hungry. Wish we could track the glycemic index or the glycemic load in the App.

    I ordered a couple of books from Amazon to get me officially kicked off on the low carb thing, I had been making up my own plan but I think I'm doing it wrong! Starting over as soon as I get the books.

    I'll look for the groups other posters suggested, I would love recipe ideas.

    Let's get this party started.

    I see that most of these posts are from a year ago. Is there still a low carb group? If so, I'd love to join. My husband and I have been eating low carb for a couple months now and would really like to talk to others on the same journey. As Math_Geek said, MFP isn't really set up of low carb.
