[QUOTE="Newlysweet, post: 2300512, member: 525353"] I accidentally posted this in the wrong place on the site, so apologies for reposting here. I signed up to low carb 12 weeks ago when my HBA1C was found to be 56. GP advised me to try the ‘lose 15kg in 12 weeks’ thing, which I did using my fitness pal, this forum and diet doctor.com. I didn’t go full keto, opting instead to keep Kcal to 1200/day, carb 30g, protein 100g, and the rest as fat. I didn’t monitor blood glucose but my carb intake was pretty low, just ‘hidden carbs’ in some vegetables really. I lost about 1kg/week quite steadily, and everything has normalised; HBA1C 32, cholesterol dropped from 6 to 4.2. And I really like this way of eating! Even happier since I’ve discovered a few brands of beer which give only 3g carb per can - lagunitas Daytime IPA is sold by Asda too! Thanks to all the old hands here for your wise and experienced counsel. No going back! [/QUOTE]
