Tested a litlle while after waking rather than straight away and 5.5

5.0 after a bedtime reading of 4.6

I can't help but agree - thanks.

4.9 this morning after a few marginally higher readings yesterday.

This pair have a hard life!

I set myself an 8 week target - I finish on Thursday :D. Some do longer, others do less depending on their starting point & what results they aim to achieve.

After a 7.7 2 hours post prandial yesterday evening (where did that come from???????) I was 5.0 at bedtime & 4.3 this morning.

Like I mentioned earlier, they are so simple. I can't do with "faffing around" measuring, calculating, etc. They contain all the nutritional balance you require, whereas other brands sometimes lack that and people supplement with multi vitamins, etc., guessing at what they need. It worked out at...

Many thanks. On the other thread I linked to earlier there's several of us who have taken this path for rapid loss and then migrate on to LCHF for further loss/maintenance strategy.

I guess there have been occassions during the time that I've had a rumbly stomach - I go & guzzle some sparkling water. I've had no constipation, as such. The output has dropped considerably though! The meals have been well spread over the day and the incentive I had from the results is what's...

2 young liver spotted Dalmatians - 16 month male & 2 1/2 yr old female. The 5th & 6th Dallies we had over the years.

No, they are a mix of protein, carbs & fat with fibre and added supplements to make them nutritionally complete of a 3 meal daily intake. The last combination of meals I had totalled 19g fat, 55g carbs & 51g protein for the day's intake. That's fairly typical from what I can see from the...

4.4 this sunny morning. Accompanying young son as parent assistant on school trip to twinned school in a Manchester suburb - contrast to sleepy Cumbria!

Don't forget to print out the document Prof Taylor has prepared for people to show their Doctors about the process. Many GP's aren't aware of the research, so discount it as another "fad diet".

I'm following the VLCD of 3 replacement meals per day plus 2-3 litres of water as well as a couple of black coffees. As my wife joined me on a 1200 calorie plan we tried the 4 week breakfast, lunch & dinner pack initially, but it's all just dehydrated food that makes up into various flavours of...

This thread, started on 21st March, has contributions from several of us who have recently undertaken the Newcastle Diet (ND). It now runs to 50 pages but there is a wealth of information and experiences from people who have taken this route to get a grip of their type 2 condition.

This link is what Professor Taylor of Newcastle University published on the subject. The Optifast replacement meals they used are only available in the UK on prescription. People who have decided to follow this plan have used a variety of methods & products: self-calculating very low calorie...

5.6 at bedtime and a lovely 4.3 this morning.

That's the sort of information I like to hear... I'd like to think all the progress I've made with a regime that works for me is not undone - LCHF is planned to be a long-term strategy for further loss and then maintenance, so I really hope it is a process that suits my metabolism. Exante has...

Last day of week 7 (49/56) of the ND. Another 5lbs lost with 2 lbs to go to initially set target weight of 14 stones (88.9kg). BMI started at 33.2 and is now 27.7. I'd still like to continue weight loss after 8 weeks ND by migrating on to LCHF to achieve a lower BMI (24.9 or below - 12st 11lbs...
