edited November 23 in Motivation and Support
I'd love to friend other people who are following a low-carb (Keto, Paleo, etc) diet for motivation, to share successes, and tips for when I'm not feeling so enthused.


I started following a ketogenic diet right before Christmas, and have already lost 12 lbs over the past 13 days. And have yet to do any exercise.

I'm seriously in love with this diet so far. The best part about it (besides the results) are that I'm rarely hungry.

So, if you want to join motivation networks, send me a friend request or comment below so others can find you too!

    I've been doing Keto for about 3 months. I've lost about 40lb. I'm super happy with the diet, I'm just now adding more complexing foods like soup.

    How do you track Paleo/Keto diet with my Fitness Pal?

    Yay keto pals!

    I've been keto since August and am so grateful to have found this way of eating. So far, I've gone from 228 to 178 (50 lbs.)

    I'd love to connect with and swap recipes and support with others. Add me!

    Wrogii, you can check your macro levels under your diary. The "nutrition" tab will give you that option. Keto macros are 70-90% fat, 15-20% protein, 5% carbs.
  • I have also had amazing results with keto and fell off the wagon. Please add me!

    awesome azyaria! I was just thinking about the same thing earlier and then I saw this thread. :smiley:

    wrogii, like ggirgis said you can customize your macro ratios to suit your needs. I've set mine to 20%carb 65%fat and 15% protein for paleo/primal, in line with this article:

    Just getting back to Keto after a long absence. With roughly 75lbs to lose would love to be connected to others with a similar diet for motivation and inspiration! :)

    I have had one good run at keto...lost 40 lbs in 6 months from. Once I got there felt good. Then slowly got off keto and gained back about 15-20 lbs of it over almost two years. Started again on January 1. This time I am going to focus on health instead of the number on the scale because every time I get under a certain number I cheat a little which ends up being a lot. but I am definitely looking forward to hearing all of your stories to help me stay on track!

    Started Keto today after hauling out all of my food and replacing it. Feeling optimistic— I’m getting married in November and I would like to feel good about my wedding pictures. I’m tired of hiding from the camera.

    I’ve definitely been thinking about trying Keto but so far it’s sort of confusing. I need to read about it more.

    I do Keto, and have since August. I have lost nearly 40 pounds. The weight doesn't fly off me like it does some people, but its still coming off, so im happy with it. CICO, never worked that well for me after having my gallbladder removed.
