I was curious to know how long everyone has been eating low carb and how much weight you have lost? I tried looking through the forums but didn't see anything, so if this is a repeat please post :smile:

    I've lost almost 18lbs since June (LCHF/keto). My exercise is limited to walking most every day.

    I lost 18lbs since end of June too
  • I'm on a low carb high fat diet for 4 months now. So far I've lost 16 pounds. I am not hungry, cranky or tired on this diet and I intend to keep to this diet/lifestyle for the rest of my life as I feel and look great. Atm I'm in ketosis because I wanted to lose a few more pounds but my body said no (hit a plateau). Now I'm losing those last stubborn pounds of fat thanks 2 ketosis. My fat percentage is now low for my age group. Yay, result!

    I've lost 129 pounds since 1/12, stabilized my blood sugar, improved my lipid panel tremendously and quit taking diabetic medication.

    From 2002 to 2003 I lost 160+ lbs and maintained the weight for over eight years on a low carb lifestyle.
    Then I got lazy, let bad habits creep back in and gained 40lbs back.

    So I'm back to what works!

    Went low carb with my husband a year ago. I lost close to 30 pounds, and he lost both 50 lbs and diabetes. We're now doing maintenance. I keep carbs between 35-50 and he eats under 100. We monitor calories as well as carbs.

    I'm down about 10lbs since mid July. I try to stick around 50g of carbs per day but don't worry if I go up to 100 once in a while.

    4 months and 57 down. 47 lbs lost since I started reporting it to MFP.

    I also kicked myself out of ketosis this weekend, though I will stick with a low-carb lifestyle (maybe not ketosis levels), but there is zero doubt that low-Carb really does work and it works very well!

    I've lost 4 lbs in 1 month, which doesn't sound like much, but it's HUGE for me. I'd been bouncing around the same 2 lbs for 4 months just eating Paleo, and as soon as I cut carbs to keto levels I started seeing new lows.
