Both my wife and her brother are skinny, she weighs 8 stone 5lb. She’s a mobile hairdresser and often has up to 5 cakes a day at various clients houses, there’s always a big bag of haribo sweets in our house that she eats daily etc. I remember years ago her brother eating two roast dinners a day...

I sympathise with you greatly. I’m one of those people who, if I stayed on Keto for 10 years, would still dream about eating a Melton Mowbray pork pie, dream about my wife’s home made chocolate cake covered in melted galaxy chocolate, dream about apple pie/crumble, and my ideal Christmas...

Well the days I cut the lunchtime tablet out I was 100% fine. Yesterday I had a lunchtime tablet, and was back to how I was before. So will be sticking to 2 a day for now.

As I posted elsewhere a while ago, I stupidly came off ,my diet for Christmas and ended up putting it all back on I tried going back on a few months ago, but it made me very ill. I suffer from health problems anyway, but unlike the previous time I was on it, I had severe diarrhoea within...

Thanks all Been on it for a week now, keeping below 20 carbs a day.

That's true if you have no problems going back to a carb free diet. I thought I was fine, I went straight back on it, but I found it really really hard to stick to and real life stress simply made me give in to temptation.

The simple answer was, no it wasn't. I should have listened to you all I really really struggled to get back on the diet (very stressful start to the year) and have only just managed to go back properly, and I now weigh 117.7 kg ( 18st 8 oz) :( Ah well, what done is done, Stress levels way...

I threw the first cup away as it looked like a curdled mess. 2nd cup, I let it cool down a little before putting in the milk, then stirred and it looked perfect. Then about 3 mins later it looked black. I tried stiring it again and it looked fine for a short while. In the end I kept a spoon...

Hehe, thanks. My plan was for pancake day :) I found a nice almond pancake mix that I tried today and worked out lovely (mind you, bakewell tart is my fav cake, so I'm on a winner using almonds) . Only oil I had was olive oil so used that instead of avocado...

Hi all. Anyone had any luck sourcing Maple Extract in the UK? So many different sorts on Amazon. Trying to make maple syrup from this recipe :) https://www.wholesomeyum.com/recipes/sugar-free-maple-syrup/ Thanks

My Oppo enjoyment was short lived :( Asda will no longer be stocking it. I double checked with Oppo and they confirmed it. Only have a small sainsbury near me and that doesn't have it. So to get it, I will need to make a 30 mile round trip to Norwich, which isn't going to happen :(

Been buying my ground almonds at Tesco, 200g for £2.30 Today in Morrisons, I saw they were selling 3 bags of Whitworths 150g Ground Almonds for £3 (hence 450g for £3) so I bought them. Just compared the packaging (all g per 100g). Tesco: Fat: 54.1 of which saturates 4.3 Carbs: 3.8 of which...

Just baked myself two of the keto bread from Diet doctor. Love the taste, they came out perfectly.. Only problem is, Almond Flour at £2.30 for 200 gram (Tesco, couldn't find any in my lidl) s, these two rolls used 1/4 of it. I suppose I could look at it like buying an individual roll from a...

A recipe for almond flour cookies says the following for each cookie https://www.wholesomeyum.com/recipes/gluten-free-shortbread-cookies-low-carb-sugar-free/ Total carbs 3.3g Net Carbs 1.7g For the purpose of how we are counting carbs, which one should I be taking notice of please? Many thanks

I presume ground almonds and almond flour is the same? If so, appears much cheaper in Asda

Many thanks. Best reviewed one I've found on Amazon so far is this one, but like this one, all the ones that say blonde, don't seem to be flour, someone made keto bread with it. Just want to double check as funds are tight and don't want to throw away my money :)...

Hi all. The one thing I cant stand the smell or taste of is coconut. You could (well before I had diabetes) put almost anything in front of me and I could eat it (OK somethings I'm not keen on, but can palate most things). But coconut, no. Not allergic in a medical sense, but the taste makes...

Hi all, I know it was wrong to do what I did, but I will probably do it again next Christmas, and probably if I go on holiday this year. I have numerous health issues, getting Type 2 was the icing on the cake so to speak, in fact the reality is, when I was told, I smiled and said something else...

I'm of the opinion you cant reverse it, ie if you went back to eating normally (not excessively, say you ate what your healthy slim partner ate, potatoes, pasta, a few beers etc) I suspect you would be back to diabetic readings in no time. So I believe you can keep[ it in remission if you...
