Hi I'm a 65-year-old woman who had a physical job as a Verizon cable splicer. I since retired and put on weight. Now I'm on 1200 cal keto diet

    I lost 13 pounds in a month on the keto diet. My calorie intake should be 1200 cal but I and up with 700 to 800 do to not going over my macro numbers. Is anyone else on the keto way of life.

    Welcome. :)

    Most keto'ers are in the Low Carber Daily MFP group. You'll find lots of info and support there.

    Hi, I'm interested in learning more about the ketogenic 'diet' and keto-community groups. Which are the better recommended food tracker apps? How do I track 'macros' while working a busy schedule? How do I know if I'm in ketosis and getting enough hydration and micros/nutrition? I'd appreciate feedback from any who have maintained keto-induced weight loss for 6 months or more. My goal is to get back to 120 lbs where I feel my best. Keto-tips are appreciated here. Thanks!
