Under 1200 for weight-loss
I see new faces here daily, see new posts about eating low calories daily. If you've read my story, just ignore post. If very short and sedentary ignore my post. I had congestive heart failure at 25 years old. I was 5'8" around 135 lbs, US size 9. Ate around the 1000 calorie mark (usually coming in around 1100). Some days…

The Keto Noodles
So, finally bought and tried the shirataki noodles. My review: They were amazing. Rinsed very well... Let them sit in colander while I prepped everything else (including cooking my steak to rare and setting aside). Once my veggies were going in sesame oil & butter...I threw the noodles in with veggies (broccoli, zucchini,…

The Magic Pill
Just watched "The Magic Pill" on Netflix. Documentary about low carb/high fat eating and Ketogenic diet. Worth the watch! Eating lchf has been the best decision I ever made for my health. My results have been amazing!

Keto works! New NSVs
Tried on my inspiration shorts, They were too big (left). Tried on shorts two sizes smaller, shorts I never thought I'd be back into (figured I'd make them my new inspiration shorts)... They were loose (right). So happy! I love losing!! Starting pictures below! I'm just ecstatic and in shock... Over the top thrilled with…

NSVs are the best!!
Tried on my inspiration shorts to find them too big.... So tried on shorts two sizes smaller that I never imagined would ever fit again (figured they could be my new inspiration shorts to try and work down into) and they were loose!!! I love losing!! I'm ecstatic!! Yes, mirrors are old and jacked up in my house.

Question for the Lifers
Been on here for about 3 months. I just cleaned off friends list for the first time. Around 100 cut, most inactive for over a month. Question is: does anyone who's been on here a long time find it discouraging how many come and go, or ever discouraged by how many start and quit after being active and gungho for first…

Is this a completely dead group
Great idea for a group, but I get the sense it's a ghost town. Wish it was active with more people sharing recipes with other health conscious foodies! HELLO, is there anybody out there???

1 1/2 month of keto.
Not at goal yet, but have lost over 12 inches off stomach. And over 3 pants sizes down (squeezing into size 16/18 yoga pants to pulling up, buttoning, and zipping size 12 jeans). In total shock! I never thought I'd be able to lose the weight that came with a disease I caught which caused a lot of weight gain. But in one…

Starting keto
Majority of my friends requests come with a message "hi, starting Keto, saw your comment/or post, looking for keto friends." One of the most common post I see on my feed is, "It's been a week (to a month) on keto, I give up on keto." I just wanted to say, it's not a miracle diet (there's no such thing). It's still a…

Friends list
Hi, I started Keto June 11, 2019. Absolutely love it. Inches dropped, energy boost, hormonal changes. I have a nice friends list going of other low carbers and ketoers. I'm kind of a nerd, who is sometimes a little too enthusiastic, but it's comforting opening up here, I think because most everyone can relate to health…

Question keto to low carb
I see a lot people on the Keto groups say they're back. Fell off wagon, gained weight back... When you get off keto, does the weight come back quickly, like as soon as you get more carbs in? Has anyone lost weight with Keto (15-25 net carbs) and edged into low carbs (75-150 net carbs) and maintained successively? Or are…

Keto friends
Hi!! Started keto June 11, 2019 and absolutely love it. Dropping inches, hormonal changes, energy, never hungry. I have a really nice friends list going of other ketoers and low carbers. I'm kind of a nerd who gets a little too enthusiastic. But there's something comforting about opening up with others on here who can…

Thankful for the Groups!
Just have to say, I am so thankful that this group is here, and the keto friends list I've developed and still developing. Everyone is so supportive and helpful!!

1000 calories and quick weight-loss
I've been on and off MFP for years. This time, I realized there's a community. Been lurking about a month, commenting here and there. Finally ready to tell a little about myself. At 25 years old, as a young mom and wife, I was told I was going to die. I'd developed heart failure from anorexia. Most people die, but my heart…

Born for Keto
New to community, group, and fairly new to keto. I read a lot of posts and talk to a lot of people who tried keto and couldn't do it, because they say it's too restrictive. For me, I only ever added rice, potatoes, beans, and pasta to meals as fillers (ironically thinking we wouldn't get full off of just meats and veggies…

Suggestions for Calories
I am having a problem eating enough calories on this diet. I find myself not very hungry and kind of forcing food. Especially at night, I look at MFP and realized I've only had 600-700 calories for the day, and then force myself to eat (even though still satisfied from lunch). Any suggestions for extremely high calorie,…
