[QUOTE="HereWeAreAgain, post: 978164, member: 89992"] Hi Murph524. My hubby is on the ND at the moment. 3 weeks in on Monday last. He is being a little more lenient at the weekends, but still low carb'ing. It has occasionally taken his sugars up a little, but they are quickly back down again once back on the shakes and veg. For example last weekend he had an egg for breakfast, and a cold chicken breast for lunch. Blood sugars stayed in the 6s 2 hours after. If he does have 'real' food instead of a shake at a weekend meal time, he still try's to keep within the 200cals as well. He has lost 11lbs so far. His BMI was 27 when he started, (13stone 4lb) and he wants get it to around 23/23.5, so has another 11lbs to go. He did say he has noticed how much fuller he feels when having just a small portion of something, so hopefully that will continue on once finished. He does not expect this to 'cure' his diabetes - he has had it for over 10 years now. But things had gotten way out of control over the last couple of years, and he was fed up with the the GPs answer of just throwing more pills at him. I think if you don't follow the ND to the letter, then obviously things may take a little longer to achieve. I have much admiration for my husband; and all of you who do this diet. It is brutal to say the least, but I applaud you all - I know I could not manage it...!! [/QUOTE]
