    Update to "Feeling Disheartened" post

    Thank you to those who read and responded to my post a few weeks ago when despite doing LCHF for three months and loosing over a stone my HbA1c hadnt reduced... WELL... the receptionist gave me the wrong reading!!!! It has reduced from 53 to 47 [emoji4][emoji4][emoji4] wahooo... I know it's...

    What's your favourite lunch?

    I'm still quite new to LCHF and looking for some lunch ideas. Over the summer I lived on a variation of salads but getting a little fed up and with the cooler weather their not quite so appealing now. Crustless quiche and fat head or cauli pizzas are on my list but need some more...

    Well done that's fantastic. I'm gutted mine hasn't come down as I've been sooo strict... no sugar / carbs (Well 20 ish a day) no root veg, no fruit. With a lil baby it's been tough as sometimes I just wanted something quick and easy... but I've stuck to it by the book :(

    I've cut root veg and I don't like tea, coffee or milk. So only been drinking water, with the occasional sugar free coke if eating out.

    I test before and two hours after. Usually before I'm in the pre-diabetic range and after normal.

    Thank you [emoji4] They've said I will be recalled in three months. So aim to continue and hopefully loose another stone in the meantime, and fingers crossed I will see a reduction in the next one!

    My cousin is a nutrionist and a big LCHF advocate, she writes cook books and is currently writing on diabetes so I've had lots of great advice/recipes etc. I cut out all starchy carbs so had zero bread, potatoes, pasta, rice, grains etc. Been having 20/30g carbs a day alongside 16:8 fasting.

    Whilst pregnant I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes, due to my GTT results they suspected I may have been T2 before without knowing. Sure enough my 3 month post partum Hba1c was 53 so they gave me three months to try and reduce this... So for 13 weeks I've strictly cut out all sugars...

    Struggling with fasting readings

    Newbie here! I was diagnosed with GD during my recent pregnancy, due to my GTT results being very high they suspected I may have been T2 without knowing. And sure enough my 3 month post partum Hba1c results was 53 so I've been given 3 months to loose weight/reduce my blood sugars... I'm 8...
