Agree for hunger = low (for me) on my meter. This is 3 meals for me though usually!

Not the only one. My insulin response is very predictable- I know how long it’ll take to come down based on what I’ve eaten and even how much or little it will rise. My liver however... dawn phenomenon, rise with more than gentle stroll, stress, rollercoasters, if I skip both breakfast and...

Thanks Coby, I’m so grateful it wasn’t worse. My heart goes out to everyone who wasn’t so lucky or whose lives are still affected directly or indirectly through changes in behaviour.

Yes a lot! Although the first time I was fairly mild with temperature and cough, I was out of breath for months afterwards. The second time barely knew I had apart from loss of taste and was then fine.

It’s a personal choice at the end of the day and no judgement on those choices. For me, my job means I’m always going to have a (probably) higher exposure as I’m a teacher. So it doesn’t make sense for me to be cautious when not at work, all I can do is: 1. lateral flow test regularly to make...

Woop woop! That’s the spirit Annb, it’ll keep getting there...

Well for the first time I’m the same weight 13st 9lbs but I was on holiday last week. Still low carb but my times of day eating were mucked up (6 hours in bank holiday traffic with a small packet of nuts )and I had lots of liver dumps which I dont normally have. Plus less steps. Plus a couple of...

I don’t know anything about worrying levels of weight loss, and odd changes other than yea please do get it checked. However, those numbers were nearly exactly mine, 7/8 before food and 10-15 after with similar carbs. I cut all carbs down to just whatever is in the green veg I was eating and...

Wow, what a result! Interesting fluctuations on the figures too, thanks for sharing.

Congrats on the drop and well done for your hard work! Yeah, like the others I’d still be hmm on the carbs advice...

Thanks Coby I’m well chuffed! Still a long way to go but I feel like I have a roadmap now thanks to everybody and off to a good start

Hi, I’ve had my second set of hb1ac results in and seen the doctor today. In 8 weeks I’ve gone from 48 to 44, lost 12 pounds and moved bmi from 30 to 28. Everything else ok; blood pressure and no fatty liver. So just wanted to say a massive thank you to all advice here on low carb...

Hi Coby, I get an oily film on top of my urine you can see if you look at it from different angles! No idea how to tell amount without measuring...

Aye, I figured! 3- 6 months max I bet for that half a stone...

Morning all, another 1lb drop down to 13st 9lbs. Can’t quite believe how regular the drop is now - I think 7 weeks of a pound a week! As an aside since I’ve changed my diet I’m having hardly any in week fluctuations which I used to have allll the time (regardless of time of the month, anywhere...

A marginal drop is still a drop - it’ll keep going don’t lose faith!

Brilliant news well done!

It must be a nightmare having to plan appointments when you feel like that Lainie. Big virtual hugs

Er the like is for being ok face to face not for going to pieces on the phone!!!

Gosh Coby that must be awful! I hope you’ve managed to work around it. I’m dreadful at working out how I feel, it may well be anxiety I suppose!
