Hi my name is Cindy i am new to keto and trying to learn how to use carb manager. My goal is to lose 35 pounds

Great!  Welcome to the forum!!   If you have any specific questions, just let us know.  Lots of folks here willing to help.

The  ‘Getting Started’ tab is pretty self-explanatory, and you set up a lot of stuff under ‘Settings’ then ‘My Profile’ ‘Macros’ and ‘Health Goals’.   

Once you enter your height and weight (‘my profile’), you’ll update your weight in the ‘My Measurements’ tab.  Enter your weight whenever you like; no requirement to update daily.  Entering it in the my measurement will automatically send the info to wherever else needs it in the app.  For example, it will update your macros as you lose weight.

If I may make on suggestion (I found this confusing when I started back in Oct), when you enter your height and starting weight, it will figure your calories in the ‘Macros’ tab.  There’s a slider bar above the calories display where you can move it to X-lbs lost per month, maintain (nothing lost or gained), or gain X-lbs per month.  Set it to zero loss/gain first.  Then pick which macro ratios you want from the drop down menu (there’s a basic ‘Keto’ option, or you can scroll further down to set custom percentages; basic keto may be best until you get your feet under you).  Anyway, once you have your zero-loss carbs set, THEN slide the calories bar left/right to get the weight loss/gain you desire.  As you move the slider, the macros will automatically adjust.  Easy!

you can import menus from the internet (for example, Pinterest) and you can build your own ‘library’ of recipes you like by moving them to the ‘My Foods’ found in the “Foods” tab.

Lots to see here - good idea to just ‘go exploring’ around the app.

hope this helps - just sing out if you have any specific questions.

Patches I don’t know how to do the friend request thing in here, but I’ve seen it down so it must be possible.   Also, up at the top of the page in the black bar, you’ll see your icon and next to it is one of those cartoon looking dialogue balloons.  You can send a message to a particular person using that.

Hope this helps
