    Hello! I'm not doing anything complicated... just counting my calories and making sure other stuff like carbs and protein are not too high or low. Add me if you want. :)

    Hi, I'm pretty new to the low carb thing, been studying it for a while I have psoriasis and stomach issues and I just always feel tired, my dad has been doing the low carb thing for a while now because his Dr recommend he try it and my dad has been saying that I should try it to because he has a lot of the same symptoms as I do and he's had some relief, so if you have any awesome information you would like to share with me or want to add me feel free to do so! Thanks!

    Hi All,
    I know that I am way late to this post, but I am starting my LCHF journey on June 1st and am seeking friends and support. Thanks

    Hi all, I am fairly new to the LCHF lifestyle but coping fine so far. Been logging my food on mfp and interesting how carbs are hidden or you didn't know about them. Got caught out by red peppers last night, oh well. Am a type 1 diabetic and have been for 50 years. BG levels have never been so good. Lost 8 pounds in 4 weeks, happy so far.

    Here is where I first heard about LCHF dietdoctor.com. Watch the you tube video that has a picture of the evolution of man into a fat guy. I also am trying the 5 2 diet, using LCHF with good success. Anyone can add me as a friend.

    You are right as usual! Had recent blood work and all of my bad numbers went down. I stopped crestor because I was getting muscle aches. Even my cholesterol went down. The Dr looked confused, but said what ever you're doing keep doing it. I still have a good bit of weight to go!

    Cheers,

    Me too. I've done every other diet you can think of. I loose weight but gain it all back. A few days in and about 3 pounds so far. This looks like something I can stick with, but I'm concerned about elevated cholesterol and triglycerides.

    Please go on YouTube and search for talks on LCHF (by credible sources!). There is so much there to put your mind at rest. My favourites are Prof Tim Noakes, Nina Teicholz and Gary Taubes - they have all put many, many years into their research using very credible studies.
