I have just been reading the posts in that time, but not taking part. I have been building up my low carb practice, and moving from 1-1s to group work.

Oh, I thought that the member part went by you joining not posting.
 

It's great that you are back. That's a massive step you have taken. Fabulous. Back on track. Life can get in the way. That's life. I hope you are feeling better.Birmingham came together very quickly. Within 5 weeks. A lot of people couldnt make it due to short notice. But many could. It was a great event and welcomed by all. Just getting together face to face felt very special. We want to do another. Not sure when it will happen at the moment. Watch this space!
 
Hi, again, I appreciate the link.
I myself, have been on a ketogenic lifestyle for over four years.
It took quite a long time finding the right balance of protein, fats and very little carbs, it's virtually impossible to be zero from what I have read.
You could learn a lot from how Hypoglycaemia is all down to diet and how your body 'reacts' to how few carbs it takes to push my blood glucose levels out of normal into quick spikes. And how having stability in your blood glucose levels, actually can improve your health dramatically, reducing symptoms and improving your life.
For years, So called healthy complex carbs were recommended. If not for a referral to a specialist endocrinologist, I would not have been posting this.
Reactive Hypoglycaemia has no cure, pharmaceutical drugs for treatment have not been published. Most drugs make the condition worse.
My endocrinologist has done a study on a Gliptin that improves initial insulin response. But it does not prevent the Hypoglycaemia.
So it is a dietary treatment, and I have found very low carb (under 20gms per day) and intermittent fasting is my lifestyle.

Best wishes on your endeavour.
 
@Debandez hi thanks. Yeh hopefuly any ther meeting will happen. I was doing great but things been happening & made it solidification to keep on track but I must get myself back on track. It's my health after all. Again and thanks
 
 

Hi Cameron, was there something you wanted to say in regard to my comment?
 
Dear @fatismyfriend. Could you please share how to get to your open sessions in Warrington Stockton Heath? Im new to low carb and found my fasting sugar is going up rather than down after being 20-30g carb for 2.5 weeks. Looks like I need more support. I would like to attend your sessions.
