hi
@Milesy18
on the original doctor proscribed diet.
hungry, depressed, miserable,....lost a few pounds, diabetes got worse...(well my HBA1c (57) and other bloods got worse)
that was tough.
On the forum diet..baby steps at first..less hungry, happier
then took big leap right on in
satisfied, rarely hungry, lost nearly 4 stone..and HBA1c down 15 points..(42)
all other Blood markers improved..
think the hardest part was finding the ingredients to start making any of the delicious foods everyone else seemed to knock out daily.
(i've still to progress past crispbreads lol)
but i found it interesting how very different my fridge looks these days.
However, like others i'd say it's unlikely you'll be getting the LCHF promoted, probably more of the same
eat less, move more..and get plenty of carbs, grains, cereal, yada, yada, yada...
But nothing says you can't have an open mind and try one or two things from here.
i don't know about hypothyroid..or the meds you take, so i'd suggest caution.
But lower carbs, with better fats, worked for me.
