[QUOTE="Skippy1, post: 1782860, member: 350274"] My GP referred me to the local Livewell service to discuss a weight loss programme. I filled in the forms about eating habits/mental health and sent them off. As I walked into the consultation, I was greeted with, "I see you're doing low carbing. We don't do that here. If you want us to help, you'll have to use the NHS eatwell plate." I tried to explain about carbs and rocketing blood glucose levels, but she was adamant. I left without any help and more depressed.
