    Annual Review

    Hi, I've just had the results from my annual review, HBa1c34, Cholesterol HDL4.5, LDL 3.3 Triglycerides 2.7. GP has been trying to get me to take statins for a few years but I have always refused. I follow a HFLC diet with only around 40g of carbs per day. Does anyone have any ideas on how to...

    My new best friends

    My new burger press arrived today, tried it out this evening with 500g of cheap beef 80/20 mince from Asda with some freshly ground black pepper and sea salt, cooked on cast iron griddle. Best burgers I've ever had. I think this will be my regular Keto meal served with salad leaves. I can vary...

    Weight Going Up

    Hi, I've been eating roughly the same LCHF diet for the last couple of years and maintaining good BG levels but over the last 2 - 3 months I have gained nearly 2 stone, my diet hasn't changed and at the moment my BG levels are still good. I don't understand why my weight has gone up, my exercise...

    Type 2 Any ideas?

    I could feel my body wanting to shut down while driving home from work this morning, I had to fight to keep awake, I also felt wooly headed and my legs felt wobbly. I had a sandwich as soon as I got home thinking my BS had dropped but when I tested it was at 7.2mmol which is high for me. I went...

    Cold

    I caught a cold a few days ago, just a normal common cold with runny nose etc, not man flu. But Sunday evening at approx. 5pm after very low carb dinner I just couldn't keep my eyes open and went up to bed, I didn't wake up again until 1pm Monday afternoon. This has never happened to me before...

    Broccoli rice

    I used to eat curries 3 - 4 times a week before being diagnosed type 2. I still love them and they can be made very low carb but the thing that has stopped me from eating it very often now is having cauliflower rice with it. When I was in Asda the other day I found broccoli rice in the fruit &...

    It does work

    I was diagnosed type 2 in May 2016 which was a big shock. I did a lot of research online (this site and Professor Tim Noakes) and decided that LCHF was the best course of action despite the NHS and Expert course advice, I went back to the doctors this week for my blood test results, I'm sorry...
