Hi Douglas good to see you back on here sounds like your life is really exciting now. You are proof that people should try different diets before they commit to one and not just opt for the LCHF straight away we need to experiment . You were one of a few here who did low fat and was not afraid to say so..I do low fat myself but it is not really talked about on here it is just dismissed as being bad
Continue to enjoy your life to the full Douglas
I'm back on the ryvita, with ham, for brealfast this morning. Really making the effort again, so no cheese this time, and it'll be a salad for lunch.
Although, I do actually like salads now, whereas before they where just something that came with chips in the pub!
No diet works unless you stick to it. For me LC has been the way, because it's uncomplicated and I want to minimise medication. If it's not to your lifestyle,that's totally your choice, however, what is the difference in difficulty between counting calories and counting carbs?
Whilst you were doing large amounts of exercise you could get away with a bit more 'junk' It worked and you were able to enjoy your time diving.So now you're not diving and you're back to normal and have reverted to eating more nutritious foods. That seems to me sensible.
Exactly my point each to their ownFight fight fight.
Why are posters so precious?
Forum advice no matter if it is good advice or bad advice, is always suss.
In Australia we even had an Indian surgeon working in a Govt hospital and he became a head surgeon and finally a whistle blower dobbed and it turned out he was an unqualified butcher and there was a line up of possible deaths and injuries etc etc etc. If you can't trust your surgeon how much value can anyone place on forum advice.
Forums are good for identifying matters so punters can find the facts to the satisfaction of themselves. Nothing more and nothing less.
Yes, I know about Diabetes Orgs giving "bad advice" etc. but that does not give an automatic tick to forum advice.
No doctor who values his liability insurance would give extreme dietary advice to anyone without conducting a thorough physical and blood test.
There are some facts that can be stated and that is fine but an extreme diet for for an individual?????
Caution s vs precious???

same ole same ole, why not make the thread title about how you manage your db and your diving, rather than an attack on LCHF? if it dosent work for you thats fine but to actively discourage it as a method of control is irresponsible at best, the reason low fat isnt spoken about much is because this is a condition that means sugar (or carbs) is bad for us not fat! the world has been on a low fat diet for years and years but has got fatter and more diabetic, ok if your able to cope on a low fat diet thats terrific but most people with db (or not in fact) will do better not eating sugar (or carbs) so the fact that people remark about this being a low carb club are basically saying this is a low sugar club, what a surprise huh, its nice your happy, its just a shame your happiness wasnt complete without the need to attack our life destroying diet choices.

well i felt it to be an attack, as you are so anti low carb im not surprised you didnt, your posted you removed due to no responses regarding the low fat diets recently wasnt an attack, it was a positive post and its a shame no one replied, i love hearing success stories regardless of method, but you, douglas and a few others seem to have a hatred for low carbing, its like a quest to rubbish the whole idea, i dont get it, sit here and tell me honestly you dont hate lchf and are irritated by it, for why? its demented, i hate lo fat diets because everyone i know has and is doing one with dire consequenses so yes indeed i think its a terrible thing, lchf isnt for everyone i agree and thats fine, tell me how great low fat is, and ill carry on banging my drum, who knows someone may even be helped along the way by one of us, the evidense is overwhelmingly on the side of lchf as far as i see it
