I just started a Low Carb Diet lifestyle change and I am looking for friends who are doing the same for support and motivation.

    Try GROUPS, that's where you'll find your people. :smile:

    Here: (type in "low carb" in the search field once you are in groups)

    I am a moderate carb person. My calorie goal is around 1800 and I try to stay under 150g carbs.

    What do you mean by "low carb?"

    ^^^^ This is where most of us Ketophiles (low carbers) tend to hang out. There are literally thousands of us in the group (and it's not a "there's only one right way to do Keto/LCHF group ether, fwiw).

    I know that their are a lot of different types of ways that you can do a low carb diet. I am doing LCHF (not Keto). My calorie goal is around 1800 which I think is a bit too much and I try to stay under 50 grams of carbs. I was just simply asking if their was anyone on Myfitnesspal following "any" type of low carb diet that was not in a group. I see that no one has respond or sent me a friends request except one person. So I figure everyone must be in some type of group.

    I'm not necessarily on a low carb diet, but I have been making a point to keep mine around 80 grams or less because they are my nemesis!

    The group I gave you the link to above has ALL sorts of low carbers, slow carbers, those who follow Keto or modified version of Keto, Atkins, South Beach, etc.

    Most people on MFP are doing their own thing. The groups are just set up so that members can find people following similar ways of eating or who are in a similar situation, for information and support. You can be a member of many groups.

    Anyway, our goals sound similar- I am doing LCHF but not keto. My calorie goal is around 1800 and I try to keep my carbs around 50g. Feel free to add me as a friend!
