leggott thanks for comments The diet plan is actually on this site but i dont know how to put a hyper link on this blog lol. its a fairly straight forward diet,no real thinking in it:- Breakfast 250ml slimfast shake Lunch 250ml slimfast shake Dinner 250ml slimfast...

Viv, personally I would speak with your doctor, but whether they actually know about the diet or are interested in it is a different matter. I came off my metformin two weeks before i started the diet and as you can see by my bg they hve been very good. I havent had hypos etc and if Im honest...

Hi all thanks for your posts. Descartesmum Im finding diet relatively easy. Dont get me wrong I could murder a plate of fish and chips or a chinese meal but tbh I feel fine. I had another low fbg this morning of 4.4. Superrams are you doing any anaerobic exercise, ie weightlifting, i was...

Wills thanks for that you seem very knowedgable about the diet did you do it last year? I did my fbg this morning and it was 4.4 which is excellent and i cant complain at that. I def think that the combination of weight loss and exercise is what gets your body back on track and lets be right any...

Just cycled home another 3.9!!

Just read interesting article about muscle giving better insulin sensitivity, I would agree with that tbh when i train i do cardio and resistance work and different specific muscle groups every session. I think the secret to it is find an equally determined training partner, I go with my...

Bluehills its going down thats the most important thing. I was worried last night that it was too low but today all my bg's have been between 4 and 6, before and two hours after my shakes. I didnt go to gym just cycled to work, now off to get my morrisons salad mmmmmmm I will look at my...

Checked bg this morning and it was 4.7 so happy enough with that. Gonna give gym a miss today after ydays low readings, but still gonna cycle to work. I think its body adjusting to low sugars and no meds, not worried but i suppose thats the benefit of regular bg tests Dont feel unwell or shaky...

just got in checked my bg and it was 3.9!! I dont know whats going on lol but im not complaining, had my morrisons salad earlier and i got a 6.3 after two hours but now its dropped to 3.9. Not complaining but gonna have to watch it so it doesnt drop any lower, but in reality it shouldnt. Im...

Had a nice morri's salad again , tiny bit of cous cous and three pasta shells lol and loads of salad, was lovely, gonna check my bg at 630 before i go to a job to see if its spiked it or not. i think once im finished on this diet im gonna have to see what food cause me problems, but like most im...

Hi Superrams, Aye im on lates unfortunately lol see what death and disaster befalls the north east tonight. I had my lunch and two hours after had a reading of 4!! TBH i dont know if im exercising too much on this diet, as im at the gym and cycling to work on the same day. What are normal BG...

hi gav As far as stopping my meds before diet, from what i understand if you are lowering your bg sufficiently and on metformin(metfartin would be a better name tbh) then you could have hypos as it could drop to low. I stopped before xmas to see what would happen and on my first day my fbg was...

Hi beancounter havent cracked it yet i dont think lol. Did my fbg this morning 4.5, theres a definite downward trend at minute which is excellent and not getting the dawn effect by looks of it. Right off to gym....again lol, I really think the exercise is the secret coupled with the weight loss

superrams it would be a large doner with chips and garlic sauce lol the dressing is lovely and im training hard, its just to add a bit more flavour tbh just cycled home , took bg after morri's salad and was only 5.7!!, just took bg when i got in at 0040 and it is 4.5 before bed. Cant believe...

Superrams thats strange cos I had strange dreams the other night lol i suspect its the meds etc leaving system and our bodies getting used to the drop in bg. Had shakes before i came to work on bike today but by time i got in it was fine, had a salad from morrisons tonight which was lovely, no...

Bluehills just goto Tesco and get slimfast and make it with water, its been fine for me tbh and it was only £3 a tub with 12 servings. C

Cheers Bluehills, ive been diagnosed about seven years i think lol cant remember if im honest lol. Its interesting that im going to gym, doing a hard work out then coming in and checking my bg and am not get any spikes?? When i was on metformin and went to gym my bg would go up and i put this...

Weigh day today lol Just been on scales..........16 stone 2lbs 4 oz, thats a first week loss of.......8 lbs FBG this morning was 4.7 Alls good lol gives the incentive to keep going and makes you realise the hunger is worth it lol Most important thing i think though is the fbg which is down...
