    I've been low carb (under 40g total carbs) for around 6 months (with a few wobbles along the way), feel free to add me, my diary is open.

    Do you count insoluble dietary fiber carbs against your total count?

    Just started doing LCHF / Keto. Still learning the difference of higher fat, less protein, etc.

    Hi!!!! I'm back on the keto wagon. I lost 35 lbs last year but then gained 2/3 of it back due to stress eating and quitting smoking. But I'm back and ready to give it my all! Day 3 and I can tell it's kicking in

    On it and love it. My skin looks and feels amazing , probably from the copious amounts of coconut oil I've been having now.. Only thing is I do have a carb up every Sunday (I can afford this, not trying to lose much more weight but rather reduce BF % and gain lean muscle) and I feel like shite that night and the day after. Worth it though :smile:

    Regarding protein on LCHF: too much protein will turn into glucose and kick you out of ketosis.

    I know this is probably not low enough but it's a work in progress. Hoping to be in 20s tomorrow

    Don't count dietary insoluble fiber against your total carbs. For example if a vege has 5 carbs with 3 of those carbs made up of 3 dietary fiber, that is only 2 net carbs. Shoot for 20g net carbs and you'll be shedding weight!
