intermittent fasting

Hi, I’ve started intermittent fasting, this is the start of my second day (keto fast 800) . Last night I was down at 7.2 which is the lowest I’ve been in years, I haven’t eaten since 6pm last night, it’s now 8:40 am and I’m away up at 17! I’m always higher in the morning and I know why but I’m...

Hi Everyone - I am 32 and have 2 children. When my first child was born in 2017 I had gestational diabetes. After he was born I went right back to the gym and lost all of the baby weight and got in the best shape of my life. My husband and I experienced secondary infertility when trying for...

Hi Everyone I'm 39 and recently had a blood test for a cancer scare (luckily all ok there), in the phone call with Dr he said i'm all ok and at the end just said: "oh but you're pre diabetic so be aware of that" "i'm what? What is it? What should i do" "there are online resources for that"...

Hi I've been on low carb since last November, and since then I've been on Intermittent Fasting, too. Since 2 or 3 months ago, my minimum fasting is 23-hour (I really enjoy OMAD), and I do it every single day. Sometimes, I go 36h, 48h once. I even reached 72h last week, it was very nice, but I...

I am about to complete 4 months of fasting, along with low carb diets. I've tried different kinds of fasting and different levels of low carb. I've started with eTRF 16:8, then 6 days a week of 16:8 and 24h fasting on the 7th day, then 24h fasting 3 days a week, then 22h fasting 7 days a week...

Back in October 2017 my life was in crisis. I had constant brain fog, memory lapses several times a day, ( not sure how I continued to work ), feet hurting like hell and a thumb infection that would not go away even after 2 lots of antibiotics. I thought I had dementia so the T2 diabetes...

Spotted this whilst putting together a leaflet on LC woe for my GP surgery (hoping they will use it!). Saw a couple of weeks ago and I'm sure it was only 300+ then. Now 600+ already. I think it's a great idea for us to share our journeys to help others. I know that when I was first diagnosed...

https://openheart.bmj.com/content/openhrt/6/1/e001028.full.pdf?ct= I don't spend too much time on Twitter what are you talking about? Yes I know it's a mice model but considering how much we have seen from a lot of the fasting groups it seems that meal timing goes a long way towards giving...

Holy moly I have been all over the shop these past few days when it has come to research, I am actually debating being a keto and T2D reversal advocate for the Yorkshire and Humber area at some point but I have been mulling over in my head what to do to secure even more health so perhaps as a...

I'm a 57 year old female, vegetarian, low healthy weight. A1 test is 5.9. Diabetes runs in my family. The doctor suggested I go on that to get quick control of this by going on an intermittent fasting. He suggested 16 hours with no food, 8 hours of regular eating with lots of fat. I was...

Just to say that Dr. Fung's 'The Diabetes Code' is now available as an audiobook on YouTube. Free and gratis, it just doesn't get much better than that. Enjoy.

hi y'all. here to ask about fasting again, question as per post title. i've been practicing the 16:8 for possibly a total of 2wks now, not consecutive days. i've studied this intensively for a month, both fasting and my own metabolism. i've established my basal rate and ICR too. so i just came...

recently i had been looking at IF (intermittent fasting) and came across a blog detailing some personal experiences and sharing advice. i asked some questions and she (blogger) replied that maybe i should test for my basal rate and ICR first before i head into IF. my doc hasn't taught me about...

I AM TOTALLY CONFUSED I have been diabetic since 2002. I was told that my diabetes would progress and so it did. First Metformin then I started using insulin 7 years ago. The dosage was gradually increased. Four years ago I read Dr David Cavan’s book “Reversing your Diabetes”. As I result I...
