Hi welcome to carb manager. I also am turning 71 and have been on this for about 18 months. I have enjoyed this diet as I have tried almost everything. Lost about 65 pounds. During this Covid I have gained back about 13 lbs but am now working on taking them back off. If you have any questions my email is dwhite262@att.net. Good luck and just embrace this style of eating. Oh and my name is Diane.

Be easy on yourself. Remember nothing tastes as good as feeling thinner feels! I am 63 and have about 50 pounds to lose, so we can be in this together. You will be amazed at how well you’re gonna feel when you get carbs out of your system, but remember you may get keto “flu” at the start. One way to know if you are shedding carbs, in the beginning, you will notice an increase in urination, so stay near a bathroom, it will be your best friend for a few days! Most importantly, be patient with your body, you didn’t gain this weight over night, so it will take some time to come off. Enjoy this new journey and way of life!
