    Approaching end of Newcastle diet

    First off, well done for giving it a go. It’s not a easy thing to do. Obviously, I’m not a doctor, you say your headaches are severe. Do you normally get headaches? What do you mean by severe? These are rhetorical questions from me, but worth some thought... I can only share my own experiences...

    Approaching end of Newcastle diet

    No, just feeling a bit jovial, having just got back from a good walk & for the first time this year I didn’t need a hat, scarf & gloves!! To be honest, it’s okay most of the time. Have hungry days & brief periods of hunger at random times. Mostly okay though & I follow Prof Taylor’s advice &...

    Approaching end of Newcastle diet

    No, nothing to do with that old advice. Although maybe I’m subconsciously influenced by it. Who knows.. To be honest I’m just processing a lot of information right now. I know high carb is bad (it’s why I’m here!!) so have no intention of going down that route. Everything else is still a little...

    Approaching end of Newcastle diet

    Good question. The answer is I’m not sure. Jumped in to ND with the view that at best it would reverse the condition & at worst I’d lose a lot of weight, which would help manage the condition. I have a loose plan at this stage but am digesting as much information as I can, from here & other...

    Great to see so many replies coming in. Thank you all for taking the time. Quite a scary thing to deal with in the early days, but I’m getting my head around it now. The theme of most of the advice is LCHF. Definitely something I will be exploring however, I am still hopeful that I will achieve...

    Approaching end of Newcastle diet

    I’ll take a look at that book. Focusing on getting a decent walk in every day at the minute. Struggled with this at the beginning of the diet, but managing 10000+ steps a day now I’m used to it. Never considered using the Blood Sugar diet with increased protein portions for the transition, but...

    Approaching end of Newcastle diet

    Thanks guys. I am feeling good about things. Hoping I’m one of the lucky ones the ND delivers a reversal of the condition for. However, I fully appreciate my chances are 50/50 at best. To be honest, whether I achieve a full reversal or not I won’t be returning to my old ways. Yes, I intend to...

    Approaching end of Newcastle diet

    Hello I was diagnosed T2 in November after mentioning to my doctor during a visit about something else that my feet hurt. Sadly it didn’t occur to me that throbbing feet had anything to do with diabetes, or anything other than uncomfortable work boots for that matter! So my Hba1c came in at 65...
