[QUOTE="zand, post: 1877588, member: 85197"] [USER=473210]@Sani Thomas[/USER] Could you maybe start a new thread and talk about decent alternatives to LCHF? I would certainly be interested in it. I have tried most things that have been recommended to me (just don't ask me to eat eggs, I can't bear them lol) and LCHF (and now keto) is the only thing that has helped me to lose weight. I have had years of being nagged to lose weight by various GPs, but none of them could tell me how to do it. They just assumed that I was eating junk and lots of it. That's belittling and is a form of bullying in itself, and this from people who were supposed to be helping me. Coming home in tears after any appointment at my surgery wasn't very helpful I'm afraid. I just wanted them to listen and to hear that I did stick to the very many diets, it wasn't me letting my GP down it was my body not behaving how they thought it should. So I speak out here amongst friends to get it off my chest. Please stick around and help those for whom LCHF doesn't work. I don't think you realise that you are defending some HCPs who have bullied obese patients and left them feeling like life isn't worth living. That has to be wrong surely? Take a step back and look at the problem from the other side. You are rightly defending your employer, good on you! But try to imagine the frustration that I and others have felt when we have asked our HCPs for help time and time again and none was forthcoming. I post here to help others who may be in the same position I was in a few years back. It would be good if you could do the same.
