Keto anyone? First time Keto-er

Options
Hi everyone, first time here and have started on the KETO diet. I have over 150lbs to loose, I can't believe I'm even typing this but yeah this is how far I've let myself go. Single mom of 2 beautiful children and I so desperately want to enjoy them and be here for them as long as God is willing. I would love some KETO advice, tips anything really! Some friends with motivation and accountability would be the cherry on top for this journey! Thanks all!

    Most keto'ers end up in the Low Carber Daily of keto MFP groups. http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/394-low-carber-daily-forum-the-lcd-group Lots of people there with a lot of knowledge.

    Good luck!

    @lillymb06 I started Keto on 6/2/2017, and by 6/7/2017, I had lost 12.4 lbs! So far, I love it! I weigh in tomorrow, and can hardly wait to see where I'm at. :smile: Feel free to add me as a friend, if you like. :wink: I have lost 89 lbs total so far, and still have 55 lbs to go, so I know exactly where you're coming from. :smile: Michelle

    @mrssie1223 that is so awesome! Thank you for telling me this! I have to admit I just fell off the wagon again, excuse #1 because I'm broke..lol I hate to use that excuse but it's kinda hard to buy healthy stuff because they're pricey. But I really want to start Keto I really really do. I get paid Tuesday...can you kinda give me some pointers or tell me what foods you started off with this past week. Thank you Michelle and nice to meet you!

    @lillymb06 I think that you can see when I'm online, and you can send me a friend request that way. Maybe go to the help section. They probably have info there. Sorry, I am new to the community social thing too! :wink: I look forward to hearing from you! :smiley: Michelle
