Looking for Ketogenic friends

Just (re)started my Keto diet this week. Had great success when I was on it last year losing about 30 lbs.

Hi. My name is Tammy and I have been like a roller coaster (most of my life) with maintaining or trying to maintain, my weight. I am 45 and weigh 226 lbs as of now. My goal (primarily) is to get to wonderful 100's. Or Onederland as some call it. My second goal is to make it to between 140 lbs. and 160 lbs. So I have about 86 lbs. I want and need to lose. I have high blood pressure and I am taking a low dose medication for that. My blood work had been more on the higher end of the good scale but too close for my liking to the bad level so I have really wanted to eat healthy and clean and try to get healthy as much as losing weight. For me, it most certainly is NOT all about looks. I want to feel good, and be healthy and looking good will just be a bonus. Recently, as an Aunt and brother-in-law of mine have had great success with the Low Carb High Fat Diet (LcHF) I have started doing it. Some of it goes against anything I've ever thought of being healthy... like eating high fat foods like Bacon. BUT... I have to say. I did it for 3 weeks last month and my blood levels were all much better. My blood pressure was the lowest it has been in 10 or more years. So this is the diet I am currently doing and plan to keep doing as long as I see good results. I lost 9.6 lbs last month. Then gained almost 5 back the last week of December. Sorry this is so long. Just wanted to give you an idea of what I am doing. I will support you no matter your food choice is. I hope to hear from you. God Bless.

Join the Low Carber Daily MFP group. http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/394-low-carber-daily-forum-the-lcd-group Hundreds of keto'ers, and 1000's of low carbers in there. A really fun bunch.

Good luck.
