Thanks - As I understand things, you can look for work elsewhere to supplement income but you cannot work for your current employer whilst on furlough. It transpires I am entitled to 80% because that is what I agreed to when management approached me. They didn't explain what alternatives I had...

Thanks, that answered my question. I appreciate you spending the time to find that link. Thanks again

I've received an email regarding the Low Carb Program where you can register and pay an annual subscription. Once registered you will receive recipes etc. to assist you get onto a low carb diet, exercise etc etc. My Questions: 1. Is this worth the money ? 2. Is it any good ? 3.Has anyone...

Hi Smudge, welcome and good luck. I did the ND, it’s not easy, but keep going no matter what - It’s worth it in the end, One tip.... be careful when you finish the ND.... plan week 9 and your transition from ND to your ongoing eating/diet.

Thanks ziggy

Cheers

Hi Peerless Went to the Dr with results of bloods taken and he was gobsmacked! Since, I have been trying Low carb with poor results at first. I think I took the High Fat part of LCHF too literally. My weight and BG elevated. Am now 14st 5lbs and bloods up to around 11.5 Can’t get my head wrapped...

Thanks. What about protein and fats? I read somewhere one doesn’t have to count calories on LCHF, what about the rest? Are there limits/guidelines?

Hi Thank you for your reply. I had read that one should aim at approx 30% of your intended normal diet when coming off the ND for the first week, with gradual increases up to “normal” lchf diet levels. “What is normal lchf level?” - Well I began Diabetes.co.uk low carb program and they...
