[QUOTE="pianoman, post: 210867, member: 35747"] You are absolutely right! You don't need my approval, you haven't asked for my approval nor have I expressed an opinion one way or the other as to whether I think you should undertake this approach. So far as I am concerned (and I realise you did not ask) the decision is between you and your HCPs... if you choose to involve them. I have expressed concerns about this approach in general terms [i]-- most notably that there has [b]so far[/b] been no long-term follow-up, so the announcement of "results" seems premature -- [/i] but as above, I don't see why caution has to be seen as a negative. I like to think that there is room to compromise -- just because I am not [i]for[/i] an approach does not mean I am [i]against[/i] it. For myself I have no need to even try this, as low-carb has worked for me for several years now... funny thing is, I have been told my approach is extreme! You asked a direct question about the follow-up and I answered as best I could, based on the published article. If you are now suggesting that the published peer-reviewed article was incomplete or inaccurate (in regards the diet at least) then quite honestly that only adds to my caution about this approach. I sincerely wish you well and every success. [/QUOTE]
