Cheers :) , but no, unfortunately that's the new version........its all I could find when searching....

I am a lifter so get a lot of protein in , but try to keep it to the minimum I can get away with as I also have gout and find that over 150g gives me twinges, so after doing a lot of research I aim for about 120g a day.... @Pain911~ I think at your BW you could probably get away with about the...

Hi, just a quick question , I cant find the answer online , so thought I would give you guys a try......:) I lent my blood pressure monitor to a friend forgetting my doc wants a week of readings this week :banghead: Anyhow no probs as I have an old Omron M4 in the cupboard, trouble is I have...

Hi, I thought mine might be out a bit , so got some calibration fluid from the makers website, sent to me for free........

Hi, I had the same thing a while back and cut my meds in half (metformin) about a fortnight before I saw the doc, luckily she agreed........... Your readings are much the same as mine were and i felt really rough with one 3.8 reading, I feel better now but doc also put me on another med ( very...

Yep thats what I do, lunch is often my first meal and I eat my last meal late (8/9 oclock)

Your MIlage May Vary ...........IE. Different strokes for different folks

Weird ,I started the first book years ago and could not get into it (massive scifi and fantasy fan) , then watched the first series and enjoyed it but could not really get into it either..... Have caught a couple of episodes over the last few seasons, but seem to be hooked again after watching...

Yep indeedy, have had this conversation many times with people and have been guilty myself , add all my foods for the day up and come to xxxx calories, then thought about all the odd bits during the day, how much oil used in cooking, more yogurt on that spoon than I thought etc etc, you get the...

You got there before me Nosher, a quick google of diets will find page after page of why diets dont work (95% failure rate), and am going to go further than you and say that WW and SW are nothing more than money making exercises.... As you said , "It is a sustainable lifestyle change that is...

I am by no means an expert but weight is a tricky thing , sometimes it comes on fast sometimes slow, some people lose 5kgs the first month then it tapers off , maybe you are just having the opposite effect, fast weight gain then it tapers, but the answer is the same whichever, adjust your...

Loads of good advice given already and the only thing I would add would be to prioritize your diabetes for now and worry about the other things later ie. just concentrate on low carb and dont sweat the rest until you have control (you mention avoiding meat, dairy and cheese)

From a LCHF point of view I would say stuff him with fat, double cream in coffee (with whipped cream on top), chunks of cheese, bacon , fatty cuts of meat, mayo etc... and as said let him go mad (within reason) on the 85% choc............. Sounds like a recipe for a heart attack I know , but...

Mustard mayo , ....mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Yep YMMV indeed, my protein intake is at least 120g a day and as high as 180g (I'm a lifter) and has no effect on my BS levels.................Carbs tho thats another story :(

Not knocking it but are not slimming world etc generally low fat diets ( which is rapidly being shown as mistaken, but will leave that for another thread :rolleyes:) and doing that and low carb might be a mistake as the reason we LCHF,ers eat fat is to make up for the low carb intake, so you...

Yep I am 49............:)............ felt quite bad today, had some roast spuds last night but was probably still around 120g carbs so not super high, bloods were 7 post meal , and 4.8 this morning........ I might try a month or 2 100% low carb to see if my odd carbing up could be the...

yep I feel like that plus a lot of brain fog ,, have been like that since my bloods got to your levels as well, mmmmmmmmm,,,,, I have been on LCHF for 6 months +......... But in the light of previous posts I am wondering if I am sabotaging myself by carbing up every once in a while........

Same thing happened to me a month ago, came back from a day long course and felt horrible , so tested and was 3.8 , have never been that low. Have lost 3 stone on LCHF in the last 7 months.... but have been feeling tired and under the weather the last couple of months... brain fog mostly....and...

See doctor quickly............
