Would love more friends on the Ketogenic or Low Carb lifestyle with preferably open diaries. Would love to get some new food ideas from you all.

    Consider joining the Low Carber Daily group. That is where most ketofiles and low carbers hang out.
    http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/394-low-carber-daily-forum-the-lcd-group
    They are a very supportive group. :)

    Thanks for the link. Just submitted my request to join. Why does participation need to be approved? Seems odd for a place like MFP that appears to be very open to everyone.

    It was before I joined. I believe that they had some issues about people lurking and then others complaining about issues in the main boards. There aren't any problems now. I've been a member for over a year and have found the group to be very positive and helpful.

    It used to be the case that anyone could view it but you had to be a member to participate. Some issues arose that led to the current closed status but the source of the issues is probably now historic.

    In 62 days myself and down 26 lbs. and have way better energy levels than I have ever had. I always caution newbies about the low carb flu they can get in the first 2 weeks. It's very important to keep your activity level low the first 2 weeks of going into this. I'm in this for life. And the more I keep reading about this the more benefits I keep seeing.

    I'd add you but I don't know how. You can add me if you know how.

    Annavocino dot com has some great recipes for NSNG. She also has a cookbook coming out this summer. I love the fat head pizza crust for making pizza, it's like 30 carbs for the whole pizza

    You don't have to give them up just keep them under control.

    You don't have to eliminate fruit completely...just have smaller portions that work for your level of daily carb / sugar intake while doing LCHF.

    Watermelon is actually not bad if you are doing 50g net carbs. I can usually fit in 100g or so.

    My diary is now open to the public, but has a bit of a limited history. I spent about three years just doing it in my head, but decided to start tracking again recently.
