9.0 before breakfast
7.2 after breakfast...woohoo

I seems to have hit a brick wall with the weightloss... think I am at last going to have to start counting calories if I can. Was hoping that on a LCHF diet I wouldn't have to...but I have stayed the same for 3 weeks now :(

Nuts, cheese, butter all very high in calories. I do think for those of us who were/are very overweight some sort of calorie as well as carb restriction is needed initially. Eat freely is a dangerous phrase if you are used to huge amounts of carbs and then replace them with fat!!

I entirely agree. So easy to overdo the fat elements without counting calories as well as carbs. I still have to do it now in order not to lose any more .... but trying to increase them rather than decrease them. Amazing what a chunk of cheese can achieve.
 
Fasting 6.1, post 6.6 . And what a hearty breakfast it was :-) I stopped the metformin last night due to continued nausea, and guess what...I'm feeling good today, bouncy in fact :-) I'll be seeing my GP later in the week.
