I'm Sheena - East Coast Canadian living in South East Texas, about an hour east of Houston. I've been doing low carbs for a few weeks and am trying to stay under 50g per day. It's been a slightly rocky start with feeling lousey but the weight is melting off (with exercise) and I'm determined to get to my goal weight and stay there this time!0

April in Atlanta metro area. 27-years-old. Keto WOE. Been doing LCHF for about 3 weeks (it was supposed to be keto but I was snacking on apples that was putting me out of Keto range but still in LCHF range). Been eating Keto now for about a week after I ditched the apples. I did Keto once before for 4 weeks and had great success. I'm trying to do Keto 4-12 months and then transition into LCHF.1

We love it @Sarahb29! Still getting used to US healthcare and things like cockroaches and poisonous spiders, but otherwise great! The weather is awesome, except for July and August where it's way too hot. I'd take that any day over frostbite though! We have a pool and we get tons of use out of it1 -

Tokyo, Japan. I have been LCHF and on MFP daily since March 2013. Addicted to data! Sometimes get close to keto, but mostly eat too many veggie carbs to get that low most of the time. Lost 11 kg and feel much better! For the newbies, just keep calm and keto on and you will get there. It's a great life.3

Good for you! @ashtaylor83
Want to be friends? I'd love to see your diet!l, want to be friends? I am familiar with eating low carb but new at Keto, what do you consider Keto? 50g or less? I am struggling to do under 50 while eating only basically veggies and fruit for my carb sources.1 -

Thanks! We can definitely be friends. I haven't been logging as often, because I know I'm staying under 50 carbs. My first few weeks, I logged absolutely everything. For me, keto is 50 carbs or less. I might be able to eat more, but I haven't tried it. Onions, green peppers, broccoli and asparagus are the only veggies I've been eating.2 -

I'm Heidi from Washington state, always looking for new positive friends. Been on Keto between 20-30 g carbs per day since July, minis the last 10 days because I was on a mission trip. Back at it strong today though. I also have a Pinterest page under the same user name (Angelrose7777) with lots of keto recipes. 3

Toronto, Ontario Canada here. I've needed to lose my babyweight for the last 8 years. I don't know how time went by so quickly!
Started low carb with Atkins the end of August, and am so far down 11 pounds. I am waiting for a hip replacement and my orthopedic surgeon recommended a low carb diet to get as much weight off pre surgery as possible. Thing is, I don't feel like I'll rebound afterwards as this is the easiest WOE I've followed ever and I'm having great results.
I also love to lift weights and hope to compete in a deadlift powerlifting comp next Spring if my new hip doesn't set me back too much! I don't squat since the load of the weights on my shoulders is too much for my hip.5 -

I'm from Minnesota USA, on my 1st week.
And you?
I've lived in a few different states and countries, including MN. I currently live in SC.
I've done low carb off and on (mostly on) for about 4 years now. Been doing a mix of keto and more moderate LCHF since last November, currently back in my keto happy place. 2 -
Virginia, USA
Started in mid-July, no slip ups through mid-September, down 14 pounds.
The last two weeks have been another story...stress has definitely gotten the better of me.
I plan on buckling back down after our big family gathering this weekend, though!0
