Well at week 7, i think...... now 90.9 kilos, the 1st stone has gone!!. have taken no meds for 3 weeks, and feel great, bg averaging 4.9 - 6.7 kinda normal. and i think i may have beaten the food addiction

i've stopped or plateaued this week. although i might have done too many veggies. so it's back to a beef roast for dinner. the previous 3 weeks i lost a total of 4 kg, last week just 0.9 and this week i feel i;ve gained but wont know till i weigh on sunday. just had 5 slices of zuchinni raw...

im using it for both really, weight loss and BG control, both been succesful so far, dropped all meds and averaging 5.7. thanks that is most helpful, the link above..... Next question, chicken stock cubes..... ;)

thanks for the repies, but this seems to be focussing on bg levels, im more interested in carb content, im aware of the health benefits, but am doing lchf so need to concentrate on the actual carbs, as opposed to the bg level.

whats the score with using powdered spices like ground ginger, garlic granules etc, do they affect the carb content, none of the bottles give nutritional values so im a bit wary, but it would be nice to add a little heat with some smoked paprika on some crispy fried belly pork

gone from 4 x 500mg metformin 1 x gliclazide daily.... to 0 meds in 3 weeks, bg 2 hours after eating.... 5.8 sticks between 4,5 and 6.8 all the time now.... wow.... oh and lost 4 kg

3 weeks in..... now 94.8kg.... but more importantly got a bg average of 5.8. and taking no meds! am on an antibiotic, clarythromycin for a cellulitis, caused by a bite... but over all feeling better

im just amazed at the changes in myself..... the carb flu was a real low point... bt answers on here got me thru... will seek medical opinion on meds changes tho. but seems they are working

real one. cooked by myself in butter this morning

1st week over and done with. Weight was 99.8 now 97.7! Carb flu was awful..... but passed in 18 hours. Was on 4 x metformin 500 and 1 x gliclazide 40....... now (waiting for docs appointment) 2 x metformin 0 x gliclazide - bloods test readings -- before on full meds ----- morning 9.7 teatime...

im presuming this is ok, although it's car rating is 61g per 100g, but 0% sugars... holding off having some (got that meaty taste! )

well today is better. still a bit rough, but on the other side now.... however... was feeling so bd by evening, i forgot to take meds with dinner..... tested 3 hours later... and was only 7.8........ wow... i m back taking them again.... but a sign of things to come!

im on 4 x metformin and 1 gliclazide... in know the latter can induce hypo

thanks for the responses. most helpful... symptoms have eased a wee bit.... another question tho, is what hppens if u hypo on lchf?

hi there i started yesterday, and today feel a bit woozy, and rubbish overall... however my bg levels have only peaked at 8.4, and falling to 6 ish. i need to lose weight, and have done atkins before i was diagnosed... anyone any advice, have i maybe gone too low carb?
