[QUOTE="adriangoatseye, post: 1405120, member: 278120"] I can only back up what you say. Weirdly, I logged on today at 15.08 to find that at 15.07 I had received an award for being a member for exactly one year, at 15.07. I guess I am a creature of habit :) . In all honesty, I can't say that I follow the LCHF diet ardently now. That is mainly because for much of last year I stuck to the dual task of avoiding carbs and eating low calorie to reduce weight. I managed to lose over 3st and in the process shifted diabetes by August (HbA1C of 40) by August. I am not complacent so I merely teak my diet to ensure my weight stays around the 12st - 12.5st mark and I don't indulge in carbs preferring to have meals such as omelettes.
