[QUOTE="phoenix, post: 410285, member: 12578"] I agree with you about what happens during and after this very strict diet. There are some accounts on here; very varied responses both to the diet and what they did afterwards. It's worth reading what Prof Taylor himself says about the diet 1) that the diet is very hard to follow and was necessarily a very fast, very low cal diet in order to compare it with the fast results of bariatric surgery BUT that the 'time course is much less important' and that he would not recommend a very low cal diet initially for most people with T2 because sustainability is important; ' a steady weight loss over a 5 – 6 month period is more likely to be successful in keeping weight down in the long terms' 2) He also points out that the diet can't work with misdiagnosed T2 (ie MODY, LADA or diabetes after repeated pancreatitis) [url=http://www.ncl.ac.uk/magres/research/diabetes/reversal.htm]http://www.ncl.ac.uk/magres/research/di ... versal.htm[/url] 3) His theory revolves around people having too much fat around their organs and says what is too much is individual. [url=http://www.ncl.ac.uk/magres/research/diabetes/Diabetes-Reversaloftype2study_000.pdf]http://www.ncl.ac.uk/magres/research/di ... dy_000.pdf[/url] Unfortunately none of the theory was mentioned in the programme; I suppose it wasn't that type of programme. There is a fairly recent Guardian article about some people who have used the diet successfully . One was not obese before he started. He was10st 7lb before the diet and 8st 13lb after 11 days , at which point he stopped. His fasting glucose was 5.1mmol/l 2 months after the diet.
