Hi, I started Keto few days ago. I have a little experience with a ketosis diet when I was on HCG drug couple yrs ago for a short time and lost weight, but put it back on pretty quickly. :(

I love cheese, so of course this diet appeals to me. I like that I feel like I'm cheating when I'm not! lol I am not a fan of cooking so diets have always been even more difficult. I do best on cooking everything up one day a week and staying to simple repeat recipes. Last night my husband and I had loaded broccoli, it's a keeper. I would like some MFP Keto friends because I want to see how you guys do it, see your diet logs (even thought they are not perfect) maybe I will see a easy snack I never thought of, or a brand name of something I you use that has better macros than mine. etc. I also feel having some MFP Keto friends will keep me more accountable on MFP. I hate logging food, but I need to do it until I know best how my body reacts.

I have set a goal of reaching 145 by my birthday May 9th. Thats 1.6lbs a week. I am 160lbs today, I have been in Ketosis for 4 or so days.

    Feel free to add me...... I am about 60 days into keto. Have about 20 lbs. to reach my goal. Weight loss has been slow for me, but I am a regular at the gym..... I do both cardio and weight training and have seen losses more in size and muscle gain than on the scale. My username is csmezc

    Thanks

    Hi, feel free for any of you to add me. I have been doing keto since January. I have lost around 12 lbs since. The wt came of quickly at first (water wt most likely). Now the wt loss has become super slow going-up and down. Right now I am reading through the web trying to figure out if I am doing anything wrong. I have been staying in ketosis pretty easily up to this point (I bought the breath ketone analyzer and it is alway red). I want to lose 30-40 more. I will keep going, working to make this a lifestyle change!

    Feel free to add me, anybody. I've been doing keto for a few weeks and have been really happy with how it is going. Also, could use new active friends, a lot of the my older friends are MIA.

    I am new and can use friends too. I started Keto a few days ago. I have been lifting heavy for 4 years and maintaining the weight I lost 10 years ago ( about 75 lbs) but the weight is creeping up the past few months so now I am stoping with the intermittent fasting and high protein dieting and trying Keto.
