About me, I started the Keto journey about a month and a half ago at 242 pounds, I am currently down to 222 pounds after a 2 week plateau. I love Keto because it’s the food I enjoy eating, so it comes easy to me. I’ve never lost weight so easily and felt so well in my life. I’ve completely beat my sleep apnea and don’t have to wear a c-pap (thank god). Now I’m looking for more friends who are also on the Keto diet. It would be nice to support each other!

    Hi Michael, I'm on week one and would love keto friends. I'm 5' 7" and my starting tracking weight was 202.6, current 198.
    You sound like you are off to a great start and already feeling the effects, that's great!

    Started at 154 lb. 11 weeks in (almost 3 months, wow. Where does the time go. ) and 22lb down. Also love this diet. So many yummy recipes, which makes it so much easier to stick to. I can see myself sticking to it at maintenance as it's had a great impact on my health and happiness.
    I used to get migraines often. I've gone through every migraine symptom, except complete blindness. Had a migraine that was constant in different waves of pain for a whole year in 2015 (Doctors couldn't find anything wrong with me).
    Since starting, I haven't had a single one. :D
    Here's to more keto friends.

    I've had the exact same thing happen to me. Mine started out as optic neuritis and I did have blindness in one eye due to that. The vision didn't come all the way back but it's better than it was. The headaches continued afterwards though and keto is the only thing that keeps them away. My neurologist was shocked

    I'm new here and would love some more keto friends! I've been doing keto for a couple months now and I'm the only one in my household, well only person in my entire group of family and friends, so having other people around would be greatly appreciated!

    Hey everyone! Glad to see lots of people starting keto/restarting for the New Year. I'm restarting, lost 40lbs my first go at keto and it took me a long time to get back on the wagon and I'm starting from square one again. Would love to have more active friends on MFP :) Feel free to add me!

    I have been on and off keto for years. I struggle a lot with my weight fluctuations. But I always come back to it because I love how I feel and how quickly I can drop pounds. I gained all the weight back I lost last year when I fell off the wagon and now I'm starting over. Please feel free to add me!

    I’m late to the party, but I’ve been Keto, primarily, and carnivore, for almost four years. I’d also had gastric bypass and was looking for a way of eating (woe) that I could eat once I was allowed solid foods again. I came across Keto purely by accident after joining mfp just to log me back my food post op!
    I joined a group of wonderful people that was similar to this one. Very supportive and willing to help each other learn what it takes to become a success!
    I’ve been mia to the groups for many reasons; I had an ulcer in my small intestine that had perforated through to my large intestine that took the doctors two years to figure out (while I was in terrible pain), and has taken two surgeries and four endoscopic procedures (and a lot of money too!) to get me fixed! I’ve also been taking care of my, now, immobile mother for the past seven months (since I’ve been healed and can pitch in).

    Anyway, I love more friends and anyone is welcome to send me a friend request!

    Hi! I also gained weight back after falling off the keto wagon. I've been back on it since 12-26-18. I'll send you a friend request.

    Hi. I am getting back into Keto as of Jan 1. Last year I did really well on it but fell off the wagon hard. I didn't gain all of the weight back but I did find some of it. I do intermitting fasting for most mornings which helps but have found I also need to track my foods or I over eat. I don't normally post anything but thought 2019 seemed a good year to change that. :smiley:
