    Hi ladies, I am on day 4 of Keto. So far, I am honestly enjoying this new lifestyle. I know, I have a long journey to travel on this road...but, I am desperate and need to stick with it, and see the results one month from now. Note: I am not going to weigh myself often, just once a month...I do not won't to become addicted to the scale...but listening to my body...allow my body to tell me how I am doing.

    Hi I’m looking to keto. How do I calculate my macro and are certain foods (other than carbs) off limits?

    Thanks!

    Making sure you stay on top of getting the proper electrolytes EVERY day, will definitely keep you from getting the keto flu.

    Hi I've been on keto for 8 days, down 7.5 pounds and feeling pretty good! I've been checking in on the forums because connecting with other people is helping to keep me on track.

    Go to YouTube, look up Dr.Eric Westman and Dr . KenDBerryMD. This will be your ultimate start/guide with Keto lifestyle. Also check out the YouTube channel, "Butter will make your pants fall off."

    Y'all... I am right there with you all you all can friend me because I can't figure out how to do that just yet. I am on day 5 of Keto, and it's going great. I think this is going to be the God send to my life I have been asking for for so many decades now. I'm ready to lose this weight once and for all and keep it off the rest of my life.

    Y'all, I am keeping this as basic, and as simple as I possibly can. I don't have money to buy grass-fed beef or organic anything. I am eating what I can afford to eat. I am following the rules of those two men I mentioned previously Dr. Eric Westman and Dr. KenDBerry on YouTube. As well as, I've researched a few other random keto dieters, but if you all keep it simple, don't overcomplicate..you and I should be fine. This is my personal goal, and I think if we all together stick to that philosophy will do great.

    Hi all, I started Keto today, so far so good. I have a long weekend off so I can deal with any side effects. Please add me, we can support each other.

    I'm on day 109 and loving every minute of it!! Keto has literally changed my life. I've dropped 53 pounds and over 26" since Nov 10, 2017. Keep it simple, don't try to over think things and just let it flow. For you that are just starting, if I can do this, anyone can. You got this!!

    What an amazing progress! Kudos to you and bless your journey!
