Fellow Low-Carb Dieters

Hi, I'm on a medically supervised diet myself right now but plan on going back to Keto as soon as I get off. Keto of course is lchf so you are more than welcome to friend me. I did lchf for a while with a lot of success until my family had a "fat"ervention and wanted me to do what I am currently doing. I am making them happy doing this program and I am waiting till I go back to the keto woe and then I will be happy.

Good luck in your weight loss journey.

I'm looking to add MFP friends who've also dedicated themselves to a low carb lifestyle. I'm currently in week 2 of South Beach: Phase One.

I had to tough day yesterday with sugar cravings, so I need as much support as I can get from people going through the same thing.

fwiw South beach isn't a low carb diet. That said, there's a SB group here, and some active low carb folks on the low carb board who would be supportive of your goals. good luck with phase 1, which does seem to help folks "recalibrate" a bit. And phase 2 is a pretty healthy way to eat.

Not, on the SBD now, but was. I really loved it, and following the daily menus definitely made my cravings subside. Since I have high BP, cholesterol and high glucose numbers and needed to lose some weight, it was perfect. Am looking forward to trying it again since it is very healthy, IMO. Good luck!!!

Hi. I've been on low carb, high protein/high fat food plan that I got from my nutritional doctor, since July 2013. I'm insulin resistant and this has been wonderful for me. I feel better than I've felt in years. And it has definitely been successful.

Feel free to add me if you'd like.

I follow a generic Ketogenic diet and have drawn ideas from South Beach, Paleo, and Adkins. I just don't follow any specific form of LCHF diet. I like to research the science behind LCHF diets and adjust what I do based on that (not religiously; but generally). There is a fairly strong LCHF community here at MFP. I highly suggest joining some groups that specialize in that way of eating. You'll get alot of support from them. Any LCHF dieter is more than welcome to add me as a friend - I can always use more LCHF friends to encourage and share ideas with.

Edited to add this note: I don't subscribe to the notion of avoiding saturated fats as the South Beach Diet advises. So if you look at what I eat it will not fit with a South Beach approach well at all. Not all of what I eat is loaded with saturated fats; but some of it definitely is. I'm not at all criticizing the South Beach Diet or advising that you not follow it. People can do very well with it. What I am saying is that you need to be careful when looking at the way I eat for ideas for the South Beach Diet. That will probably apply to other non-South Beach LCHF dieters.
