in Introduce Yourself
Hello friends!

I'm new to this site and the MFP App. I follow a low carb, high fat, adequate protein diet. Looking for buddies here to be sociable with, trade recipes, provide encouragement, etc.

Feel free to add me as a friend.

Thank you, and have a wonderful day!

    Hi everyone :)
    In 2013 I tried everything to lose weigh... Counting calories, juicing, DietChef...
    I did manage to lose weight but gained it all back in no time.
    I started the low carb diet on the 1st of Jan after reading a lot about it.
    I would love to hear about your journeys.
    Happy new year and best of luck for all of you!

    I have my division of calories at 20% carbs, and then 40/ fat and protein. Just started here on Jan. 1st., would love new friends doing similar things.

    I started LC/HF a month or so ago, and have FINALLY starting losing weight without counting calories or exercising like a maniac. Currently I'm eating 15% carb, 20% protein, and 65% fat. I love it! My blood sugar is now a normal 80; blood pressure 122/72. Both had been sky high for many years. I recommend "What Can You Eat When You are Cutting Carbs?" http://www.phlaunt.com/diabetes/18856280.php and "LCHF for Beginners" http://www.dietdoctor.com/lchf to get started on your journey. Would love to make new friends!

    fraklein, I'm using the same macro percentages as you! Glad to hear that you are finally making some headway. Thanks for the links.
