Yes, that's right - it ends up being 800cals. Yesterday I boiled up some broccoli (cooked it perfectly, 5 minutes in boiling water) and fried it in a little olive oil with chopped garlic. There was so much stalk that I didn't use I decided to boil it in the water I used to cook the florets and...

I am a 43 yr old with a 2yr old baby and another on the way. I have peripheral neuropathy and now swollen feet due to vascular damage. I DON'T GIVE A **** ABOUT LACK OF ENERGY. I COULDN'T CARE LESS ABOUT HEADACHES. I AM FINALLY MANNING UP AND PUTTING THIS WRETCHED DISEASE INTO PERMANENT REMISSION.

Dave, how long did you stick with the lighterlife diet? Did it not cure your diabetes?

Viv... the research paper says that all the fat was gone from the liver and pancreas after 7 days. You might consider doing this diet for just 7 days, then raising the calories to a more gentle weight loss. Humph... Don't forget to take photos of yourself as you go along. We are going to rock...

DAY 3 It's lunchtime... which means a shake and a bit of boiled broccoli. Woke up this morning feeling a bit sick, headache, aching legs. After breakfast shake, legs not aching any more but headache still there. Fingernails pale pink, indicating blood sugar is not high. I won't take an actual...

Yes!! We few, we happy few, we band of brothers... I too will start exercising once I get out of the ketogenic induction phase. Man, we are going to shed some weight! Humph... what is your weight and BMI? And how long have you had diabetes?

DAY 2 It might seem incongruous for a cartoon character to call himself a 'real man'. Let it go. I have a very slight headache and a vague feeling of being unwell. I have weakened to the point where I am walking everywhere at half speed lol. Also, my tongue feels a little 'thick'. Fasting...

I don't want my very own thread. I'd rather collaborate. End of day 2... feeling weak and a little unwell. Must... press... on... through... Gnnhhhh!!!

Do you get a lot of harassment at Diabetes UK? Dammit, we're all sick, we should at least try to get along!

Anyone heard of or tried MIRE as a treatment for peripheral neuropathy and/or vascular disease? http://www.photonicenergetics.com/peripheral%20neuropathy.pdf

I have some condescending message in my profile that says I'm new here so I can't send private messages. I'm not well pleased. Can somebody tell me what I have to do in order to be able to send PMs?

I think it would be good to have a thread for all those who are doing the 8-week 600cal diet. Hey Patch! You up for it? If there's interest, I'll start a thread. Today is day 2 of my starvation diet. I'm not feeling bad at all, and the Herbalife green tea-based energizing beverage is quite...

I am currently defatizing my liver and pancreas using a 600cal diet.

Yo Patch! I'm with you on 'this 600kcal thing'. Today is day 2 of my Herbalife 600cal diet. I'm going the whole 8 weeks. Let's stick it to the whingers who say 'I don't believe it' and 'Very dangerous' and all that nonsense.
