Looking for friends to add that are also on the keto diet, to share meals and what not. I have been on this for a little over a week now and honestly feeling pretty good so far. Please feel free to add me! :)

** Before anyone decides to immediately tell me not to be doing keto, I am trying it out, doing it for personal reasons other than weight loss and I know it probably won't be a life time diet so please keep those comments to yourself.

    I have been doing it for almost a year now for migraine control. It's magical, and I'm always up for more friends.

    Add me! I go between keto and just low-carb and, like you, am doing the diet for reasons other than weight loss. I am diabetic and carefully tracking carbs helps me to keep my blood glucose under control.

    ME TOO! Migraines and seizures. It is working. I have my fingers crossed as it’s just been six weeks but you give me hope. Digital high five!

    Ok, so this is double-embarrassing, but I want to add you all AND I DON’T KNOW HOW. Obvz I need a tutorial on MyFitnessPal. The only thing I’m ultra-adept at is constantly adjusting my macros.

    I had an almost immediate reduction in migraines when I went keto. Then after about 100 days they were just totally gone. Even when I eat/do things that I KNOW are migraine triggers...I don't get migraines...it's totally amazing, definitely stick it out for at least 100 days to see full results.

    Hi everyone I have started the Keto diet 6 days ago and coping ok so far. I have done the Atkins diet many years ago and did lose a far bit of weight but over the years have put it back on. I was diagnosed as type 2 diabetic 11 months ago and have struggled to stabilise my blood sugars since despite taking medications that make me feel really ill so I’m hoping going Keto will help me one day reverse my diabetes so I’m no longer on the medication that makes me feel so ill. Would love to hear from anyone but especially any advice from diabetic members who have tried Keto as a way forward to dealing with this condition x

    come over to the low carb forum - there are several active posters there who are dealing with diabetes who are also very helpful!
