You guys are all so amazing. It’s the very first online forum I’ve EVER been on. I’m quite behind in technology for 31. I only downloaded my very first app late last year. I love this forum because I can ask questions without feeling bad about it. Even though my Mum dud keto, I can’t ask her because she gets upset as she did it the wrong way and became anorexic. So thankyou. It’s a great forum and it puts my faith back in human beings.

This handy guide for beginners is a good place to start:

Keto Is This Easy

Keto is this easy (aka Keto for beginners) Quick Version This is for Phase One—the starter phase. It’s still not complicated later, but this is the really easy-to-explain version which will help you no end. Eat under 20g of carbs a day (usually 20g net when starting, but for some people 20g total carbs works better). Don’t worry about the scale. All it tells you is weight, it tells you nothing about body composition, even the “smart” scales. Eat plenty of good food—fat and protein—whil…

Dietdoctor.com is also a great resource. (You don’t need to pay or sign up for anything to get a lot of good info.)

It’ll get easier, I promise. Part of the problem is there is no “one” way for everyone. So everyone explains their way to be helpful but it leads to information overload. It’s best to keep it super simple at first. Once you get the hang of that you can start tweaking it for yourself.

That looks yummy, Aimee. I think that you are doing great =).

As long as you keep the carbs under 20 grams, and eat enough, then you will be fine. Please try not to over worry, I think that you are doing great on your Keto and that you have a positive, good attitude =).

Awwww thanks Susan . I would really be lost without you guys. As there’s nobody else I can talk to about it. As soon as I mention keto to my Mum she shuts me off and tells me I’m obsessed. So thankyou
