    I'm starting my keto diet soon! As soon as I first finish all my carbs lol, good luck! I'm gonna look at this journey as a new life style and not a diet

    Hi, Diana. My first goal is to achieve a 50-pound loss. I am at 31.2 pounds so far. Once I achieve this first goal I will set another one. I don't look at it as an end goal, I look at it as personal growth. I am learning how to eat and get healthy again after far too many years of overindulgence.

    Hi! Feel free to add me, I did Keto for about 6 months before getting pregnant and am back to this WOE to lose this baby weight and the weight I still had from before.

    I have an open food diary and keep my macros at 65% fat, 30% protein and 5% carbs. I would recommend Keto in 28 by Michelle Hogan if you want an easy start and if you listen to podcasts I love 2ketodudes, they really delve into the science and have an online forum.

    Best of luck, Keto isn’t easy and you’ll usually be the odd one out at social gathering involving food. But with practice and preparation it’s doable. I even make pizza

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