[QUOTE="Dickensfan, post: 1131223, member: 281052"] with or without type 2 or being overweight, virtually all of my life, when like most, I've gained weight, only to lose twice as much as I gained, and the proverbial yoyo effect, ultimately all this means is that you end up heavier than you ever were first time ever on a diet, probably like me, in your teens. I have never bought into this thing about fats - I believe the only fat you should cook with, regardless of your weight, diabetes etc or just a plain skinny healthy person, is butter, the other is extra virgin olive oil, the really green stuff which I love. I'm having a problem, however, because this week from Sunday I decided to take the 2 week LCHF diet, but I want to know what to substitute when the daily recipe says pork, beef etc, because I don't eat any of that stuff and never have, I don't see the alternatives so if anyone else is or has done this 2 week challenge will you let me know what I can substitute, or do I simply give up the challenge, copy the list of what is low carb and do it to suit myself. I won't count anything, even if I started, I know within a very short space of time I will stop counting, I simply cannot be bothered counting carbs or calories, I have b etter things to do with my time, it I strongly dislike anything which means I've got to faff about making food - sorry folks, it may be ok for some, but it's not me - your guidance on lchf foods would be welcome.
