Doing the Ketogenic Diet

Options
Hello All,
I am new to myfitnesspal and I am using this tool to help me in my quest to ultimately lose 30 pounds. It really makes a difference to see what it is you are consuming. Keto Life!

    There are a lot of threads where people discuss keto. Doing a search of the forums will definitely help you find a community to join and a support group of people who are doing the same thing. You won't be disappointed!

    Hi Jennifer, I've been doing Keto since July 21st and have lost 25 lbs. MFP and Keto work so well together!

    After trying other diets, starving and losing "water weight," it's so refreshing to make dietary changes and see results!

    Hello and welcome! I suggest you check out the following main low carb daily forum group here in MFP. It's where most of us Ketophiles tend to hang out:

    Hi Jennifer & welcome to the keto WOE! I've been on the program for 7 weeks and lost 26 lbs. I have gotten off one of my BP meds as well as stopping Metformin for T2 diabetes. After you get over the "keto flu", you'll find it gets easier to resist the old eating habits. The high fat regimen keeps you from getting hungry and for me, it also has driven down cholesterol and triglyceride numbers. Add me as friend if you want and GOOD LUCK! Keto on!
