Seen my doctor today and he wants me on low carb diet. He said I need to lose weight fast or my health problems and going to get worse. I am only 42 I should not have health problems as of yet.

I'm on bp meds am very close to being diabetic and cholesterol is borderline high.

I need some low carb friends so I can see what you all eat for ideas.

Thanks

    Feel free to add me, though my journal is public if you just want to browse that. You should probably ignore all of the energy drink I pull in though. ;)

    I'd just like to suggest that a newbie get his hands on some of the Free meal plans available for lchf/keto. Usually the recipes are available too.

    I'm always open to new friends! But, I don't log my food every day. Once you've logged meat, eggs, and cheese enough times you're not learning anymore, so I stopped.

    happy to be added - I am at the minute logging all my food but there will come a time when I will stop logging as I have just started a zero carb regime, where I eat only meat, eggs and cheese and drink water and occasionally Earl Grey tea.

    Hi! Welcome and I sent a friend request :)
    I am low carb but not in the keto zone so much of my diary has some carbs.

    Feel free to add me as well. Also low carb (currently at 15%) but not keto. I'll make sure my diary is open - I've found that detailed and consistent logging is critical for me to prevent carb "drift"...

    I'm glad to accept a request! My food diary is wide open, and kind of a hot mess right now.

    Good to hear you are getting on board with this way of life/way of eating BEFORE things could get really bad...and kudos to finding a doc that supports it! I wish I was able to have been more conscious and done the same years ago.

    Congrats on your Keto-versary, @lowjax75!

    I've been doing LCHF for about a month, and would also welcome supportive friends.

    Only five bites? I would not have stopped until I'd eaten the whole thing! I admire your self-control!

    Add me if you wish. This group helps prevent boredom. Lots of great ideas are offered. For me zoodles seem to help. I have no idea why but I've been making lots of different variations. They're easy and interesting

    Always happy to have more friends to learn from and support / be supported by - I don't log at the moment though as was finding myself too focussed on food!!
