[QUOTE="JoKalsbeek, post: 1809650, member: 401801"] Metformin was a really bad idea... A lot of people end up living in the loo 24/7 on it, and it's a risk they never should have taken with you. Maybe check dietdoctor.com for meal ideas? That's all low carb and high fat, just up the proteine a little maybe. I can't recommend ready meals as they're carby, but even Burger King is doable if you leave the bun off a whopper. Bacon if your friend, so is cream, cheese, fatty fish... Just full-fat everything. Down to putting grass fed butter in your tea. Seriously. You have options, but if you want to get back to a porridge consistency, you'll have to eat eventually. I'm on eggs with bacon and cheese, mushrooms and a few tiny cherrytomatoes, salad with bacon or a can of tuna on oil (making the salad a vehicle for more fat), and in the evening it's meat or fish with cauliflower rice and yes, more bacon and cheese. I'm dropping weight on this though. So more proteine should help with that. That regime would drastically drop your bloodsugar though, and on meds you'll hypo for certain. So be careful when you try our suggestions here. Test a lot, and make sure you have sugary emergency good/drink around. [/QUOTE]
