    Empagliflozin - Anyone taking or suggested to take

    The potential side effect which frightened me was the Fournier's Gangrene! I've been prescribed it but not plucked up the courage to start it yet!

    Atkins/Filinchen Crispbread

    No joy yet, I'm afraid.

    Atkins/Filinchen Crispbread

    Thanks for the suggestion but I have tried these in the past. They are as you say expensive and are not really what I would call a crispbread (like ryvita) more like a cheese cracker. None of the others that come up in the Amazon search seem to be both a crispbread and low carb, hence resorting...

    Atkins/Filinchen Crispbread

    Since starting my low carb diet many years ago I found that a couple of Atkins crisp breads with various toppings suited my needs in the morning, however when Atkins withdrew from Europe a couple of years ago I was delighted that the same product was available under the name of Filinchen, a...

    Full Fat Greek Yogurt

    I buy it from Sainsburys (own brand) every week also from Tesco. Never any problem.

    What do you do during isolation?

    Absolutely! Love it. Heard the first cuckoo today. Always seems to be 23rd April.

    Crisis! Lidl protein rolls discontinued????

    Dear Mr Lidl, Do you realise how many thousands of the growing number of type 2 diabetics in the UK totally rely on your protein rolls as the only bread they can eat? Four million people in the UK are estimated to be suffering from diabetes. Lidl protein rolls are famous and widely talked about...

    Lidl's Low Gi rolls.

    Slice a Lidl Protein Roll horizontally with a large sharp knife to make four triangular "slices". Melt a knob of Lurpak garlic butter on a non-stick griddle (I use a Breville Panini Press which does both sides at once). Lay the slices on the melted butter for a minute or two until browning on...

    Knowalls rant

    T2D Since 2000-HbA1c Sept 5.9% Off all Meds since July!

    Well done Robert! Stories like this, which pretty much mirror my own, just make me angry! The dietary advice givens to T2s over the last 20 years or more has clearly exacerbated if not caused the condition in so many if not all sufferers. Why oh why have they still not seen the light? My doctor...

    It's been a long struggle but I think I have reversed T2 after 12 years

    Well my doctor was cautious and has recommended only a reduction in Metformin in stages with an HBa1C blood test once every three months instead of the usual six. Lisinopril is protecting the kidneys. Stopping statins and aspirin not a wise option apparently. I am encouraged by AtkinsMo's...

    It's been a long struggle but I think I have reversed T2 after 12 years

    Thank you everybody all for your encouragement. "You have effectively reversed your diabetes" were the nurse's words not mine. I am under no illusions about what that means. Reversal is surely that you have, over a sustained period reversed the direction in which you were heading and...
