    Im not on atkins, but I'm only taking in 250 carbs a day to start, and want to reduce it at least every few months.

    FIrst day of this app.

    I've done Atkins in the past and it worked very well for me (-60 lbs). Kept weight off 2 yrs.

    Then I gained back most (+40 lbs) of what I lost after my thyroid failed, before the problem was diagnosed.

    Want to start back on a low carb diet. When I did it before, I lost 2--3 lbs a week at 70 g carb/day, so that is what I plan to target now. It should still work without the super-tight induction phase, just with a slower start.

    The database is really handy, but I wish myfitnesspal had an option to toggle to a home-page layout that emphasizes things important to carb trackers, with an automated net-carb calculation, calories in a subordinate role, and fiber tracking.

    Wow. You (Tracy Getsfit) have lost the entire weight (118 lbs as I post today) of a skinny, short woman already. That is amazing!

    After two months of no progress using calories in/out, tracking with fitbit and not going above 1600 cals/day -- I have gone to low carb. I am at 50/day, and will continue with it. I am in peri-menopause (and could be for 10 years, ugh) -- and I suspect my body has changed how well it processes carbs. I'm giving it a full month, with a weigh in on August 1st to see if that helps.

    Feel free to add me too.

    I'm starting the first diet I have been on in my life. I'm starting with reduced carbs (150 or less). I need to lose 80 pounds and hope this will work. Feel free to add me. I definitely need some encouragement.

    I'm eating low carb simply because they have more calories then I'd like. Also, I might be allergic to some wheat because some bread gives me stomach issues.

    Not new to Low carbing but have never made it stick as a way of life. Back to try again, and failure is NOT an option. Looking for Low carb friends to share MFP diaries and support. Please add me as a friend if you'd like a mutual support buddy.
