Interesting link thanks. That definitely sounds like what she's taking. No proper research of the risks though which is scary. She was saying boxers drink it. Anything with keto in the title seems to be taking off at the moment. Probably because it works! I never heard of it before my diagnosis...

She was adamant she was drinking keytones..and had added water and extra salt to her diet to counteract the flu side effects

I wasn't sure I should mention what it was on here. Begins with P and callum best promotes it

But they have "celebrities" endorsing it so it must be true! Will admit part of me wanted to believe the hype even though I knew it was rubbish. Perils of being trapped in a plastic apron staring at yourself in a mirror for an hour

Yep totally agree. Sad that she's shelled out so much money though

hi So at hairdressers today she was banging on about how great this product was that she was taking and how it had helped her lose her tummy bulge. She basically then described a keto lifestyle of no more than 20g carbs a day with this stuff added in "to speed everything up" Having been a bit...

Thanks, I think that is the way I would be looking at trying it

Hi At what point, if any, did folk consider coming off metformin? I am hoping to be well into "normal" range at my next testing but wondered how much of that could be said to be the metformin. I am on 500mg slow release twice a day. I dont mind staying on it as I have no side effects, but see...

Second post diagnosis bloods back and I have now got down to 44 from my original 76 last summer. Am all delighted with myself. Looking forward to seeing the practice nurse next month. Sod the eatwell stuff, its been this site and the lchf that's helped (plus metformin!). Onwards now to my first...

Hi welcome to here! This is a great place for information and has really helped me. Someone more knowledgeable than me will reply soon :)

I ended up speaking with keto lady outside and she asked to keep in touch as she said she felt she was lost, nobody agreeing with her. She was made up I was there, so am glad I went in the end if just for that. Sounded like she had tried to research and just done it on her own. I gave her this...

Hi After being told i didnt really need to go by the practice nurse i decided to go to see what all the fuss was about and spread the lchf gospel. Room full of people a nurse and nutritionist. The 2 most successful were me and a lady doing keto. We politely told them we were restricting...

Thanks, I love cheese more than life itself!

Wow am loving the sound of the dark chocolate bounties, thanks

Thanks, my first T2 Christmas will have lots of cream then!

Hi! I am a few months in now. Don't panic this forum is great for info. Loads to take in but everyone here has been very helpful. Read as much as you can and dont be scared

Hi So my original nurse has gone off on long term sick now and I was dying to go in and brag about my 3 month improvement. Ended up seeing a nurse who was covering but also seemed way more clued up. She asked me right out was I doing lchf and said it was the best thing for me, went into way...

Thanks, the nurse told me not to test, am so glad I found this forum

Am lucky not to have had any side effects but am on the slow release which have read is better. Would love to eventually come off it though. Well done you!
