My gallbladder is completely blocked, no bile is getting out, it's all coming into a drain attached to my gallbladder and then into a lovely bag attached to me!!! Hence why I need to low fat until the remove the gallbladder and the bile starts to get back into my system.

That's reassuring! I'm enjoying the fact I can eat things that were off limits, but hate feeling hungry! Since hubby is looking after me he's liking being able to buy stuff he can chuck in the oven for a change!!!

Des anyone heresuccessfully eat Lchf and not have agallbladder? I had been doing Lchf for two years with great results, diabetes reversed, weight lost, but currently sitting with a drain in my side from my gallbladder awaiting it's removal in March. I've had to go back to carbs as I have to do...

My blood sugar is slowly reducing too, 6 something yesterday morning, 5 something last night and 4 something this morning! I don't think I've never had a 4 reading!

So my food yesterday was: B: ham and tomato L: tuna, lettuce, cucumber, tomato S: tiny bowl of mushroom soup (NHS starter size) and lettuce Ate about 7.30am the inside of a ham sandwich as I was starving, and have just had two bits of bacon and a plum tomato for breakfast. Trying to do low fat...

The consultant came and said I need to do very low fat until they can take the gall bladder out (4-6 weeks) that's when I cried! He is arranging for a dietician to see me today to discuss low carb and low fat!

Just had some ham and a tomato!

Been hospitalised for the second time since Christmas for severe acute cholecystitis (gall stones and inflamed gallbladder). Finally got to a ward last night, after they ordered breakfast. They will only let me eat low fat, so tried to give me cereal this morning. I refused that and went to...

I know, all I get is conflicting advice. When the consultant came round yesterday morning she berated me for choosing scrambled eggs from the hospital menu as they were too high fat. I pointed out that everything else on the menu was high carb and I can't eat carbs. I got looked at funny, in...

Nature valley protein bars (choc or salted caramel) are pretty low carb and my go-to snack to keep in my handbag.

So my go-to breakfast before my 5.50am commute has been a peanut protein bar chopped up with a choc sauce (square dark choc, sweetener, double cream and butter melted together) - all very LCHF which has cured my T2 diabetes, and it works for me. Now I've just come out of hospital with gall...

B: sausages, fried mushrooms, scrambled eggs and baked tomato L: fried hallumi and fried eggs S: lamb meatball skewers with cauli rice and baked courgette and peppers Snack - a slice of cloud bread with some peanut butter

So my hba1c is consistently low and just got the results from a fasting blood test, 4.8, so totally in the normal range. Nurse said I now don't have diabetes. I immediately went to LCHF when I was diagnosed and so I guess I have cured it with that. What now!? She said I would still get...

That looks good too!

Apologies if you have seen this before, but I tried bacon pizza for the first time today (woven together streaky bacon for the base) and it was amazing!!! Will certainly be doing it again and pretty easy to do! http://mariamindbodyhealth.com/bacon-pizza/

Oh and she nearly fell off her chair when I said that I was a bit more radical than low gi and I went for 20g a day of carbs. She tried to spout the it's not healthy etc line. Mi smiled sweetly and nodded whilst she looked more and more perplexed by my results considering how high they were 18...

Just wanted to share with people who properly understand my annual diabetic review today! So headline figure is that all is good, hbA1c is down even further to 5.2 (33) from 5.4 last year. All the other tests were good, cholesterol etc... I had though thought that in this new practice (just...

So was diagnosed t2 last Feb, almost immediately went onto Lchf, reduced my blood sugars to an extent that the doctors have basically said that you are not diabetic any longer, but we will see you every year for blood work etc. I had eye screening last April, which was totally clear. I saw the...

So I went out to a pub on Wednesday, had a mixed grill, no chips and just one onion ring, so very low carb and a large Diet Coke. Only I think it must have been a proper Coke as I woke in the night with severe chest/breast pains (like when I had deliberately had some pudding on holiday, but...

My normal trousers waistband goes across my belly button - why would they not?
