Nice one Debs, you were awesome! Like that you got the ‘high fat’ thing in a couple of times. And you avoided the skunks in the studio!
Well out of my comfort zone, Ltd to what I was allowed to say. Couldn't mention DCUK and couldn't bring my bg monitor on! But I got the fact over low carb works! For bs and weight loss. I am so happy. Thought I might freeze and lose this amazing opportunity.@Debandez you were fantastic! I think you’ll have inspired a whole raft of people to search for help, you were lucid and informative and looked great.
Well put of my comfort zone, Ltd to what I was allowed to say. Couldn't mention DCUK and couldn't bring my bg monitor on! But I got the fact over low carb works! For bs and weight loss. I am so happy. Thought I might freeze and lose this amazing opportunity.
I wanted to talk about my bg monitor and bring it on but no time. And she said they were good for focused pts but can have a negative impact for those not so. But I'm happy to have got the low carb message across and zoe did back it up so given a lot of people hope today. I'm a very happy (and tired) bunny. Couldn't sleep last night! Couldn't eat dinner or breakfast! So nervous.Well done you.. brilliant job indeed..
Typical Zoe Williams trying to get the "its all about weight" thing in..

Here here!!!Thanks @shelley262 but actually you, @Goonergal and @Rachox were the people who really inspired me when I first joined the forum. You were so helpful, it made a huge difference and I never would have managed without you all.
Need time to recover from this first HahaDebs you did a fantastic job! Well done you! BBC Breakfast sofa next?!
Point 4. Although weight loss is not required for benefit, no dietary intervention is better than carbohydrate restriction for weight loss
The previous point emphasizes that low-carbohydrate diets provide benefit in the absence of weight loss. Nonetheless, such diets consistently outperform low-fat diets for whatever time period they are compared and frequently show dramatically better results.
Almost all participants in the low-carbohydrate arm were successful at a loss of 2 kg as an arbitrary cutoff mark, whereas only about half of the “healthy diet” group reached this mark.
I got low carb and high fat a good thing for diabetics to gain control. Told them where to find the solution by Googling 'reversing diabetes'. Takes you to diabetes.co.uk. hopefully get a few newbies! Couldn't mention mysugr or bring on my bg monitor but I feel it's was a move in the right direction. Mainstream TV. 1 million viewers for This Morning.yes it does seem to be the message trail is just SO wrong.

And regardless of the hurdles, our Girl ...done us Proud..way to Go Debs.

Asked if I could mention DCUK and mysugr. Nope. Advertising I suppose. Bg monitor no time for dr zoe said and she was right, it went so quickly!@Debandez , are you saying you were told what you could and could not say before the broadcast? Censored in other words. I don’t know why they wouldn’t allow the meter, or mention of DCUK. Yet that doctor Zoe woman was allowed to push her agenda. If so, that stinks, but you were very clever to give your clues and pointers to lead folks here. That was genius on your part. Well done.
