    I have been low carb since October and have lost 40lbs so far. Just started doing the DDP Yoga yesterday. My weight loss recently plateaued but has picked back up again. I always check with the Keto Strips to make sure I am still in Ketosis. Has been working fantastic and would like to meet other people who might have tips or ideas or just support for this lifestyle!

    Hi all... I am starting a low carb lifestyle as well and looking for some others to support each other as well.

    What approaches are you all taking? Especially curious on what has worked so far for anrebma above... 40lbs in 3 months is impressive!

    For now, I am trying to stay under 20g carbs/day, eating 5 times/day, drinking at least 64oz of water/day and taking daily walks.

    Hey there,
    I'm just starting at this fitness pal thing I'm on day 2.
    Goal is to get down 30 lbs. It'll be my third time getting off these same 30 pounds over the last 9 years. Really hoping to do it this time * keep it off forever! Feeling motivated ( and a little hungry right now!). I think I'm having food widthdrawl & getting use to no more christmas sugar around.
    Getting back to the gym tomorrow & can't wait
    Last time I lost 30 lbs I maintained a low carb diet & lost 30 pounds in almost 3 1/2 months and kept it off for two years. Slowly increasing healthy carbs and keeping it off with exercise/ running everyday!

    Really focused on doing it again! My wedding is in 8 months!
