Hi everyone, I have just had the results of my bone density scan having broken my arm in a fall in December. My spine is normal but the bone in my hip is slightly thinner than normal. I have been low carbing for over a year now and I have reduced my hba1c from 143 to about 60 without any medication. I have lost 4kg but both my weight and my blood sugar levels remain higher than I would like. My GP, who was initially sceptical about lchf, says that I should carry on with what I am doing and I will reach a point when my blood sugar levels and my weight will drop "like a stone". Does anyone have any suggestions for calcium containing foods that are low carb? I switched from milk to cream because of the carbs but have cut back on both cream and nuts over the past few weeks because of the stubborn scales.
