[QUOTE="gettingamoveon, post: 1857167, member: 485994"] I just ditched all food with non-negligible levels of carbohydrate straight away. I felt a bit weak and dizzy at times for 2-3 days and noticed some non-dramatic changes in bowel habit over the first couple of weeks. I don't weigh foods or count carbs or calories. I just eat the following: meat, poultry, fish and other seafood, nuts, eggs, olive oil, cheese, butter, non-starchy vegetables, herbs, spices, occasionally a small amount of fruit or berries, occasionally also seaweed, miso soup, tofu. Tea, coffee, dry wine, milk in tea. I don't eat breakfast ever and fast between 16:8 and 18:6 always but increasingly from dinner to dinner, which I tend to eat no later than 7. This, combined with regular exercise, has worked well for me so far, producing a drop of nearly 3% in HbA1c in 6 weeks, significant and rapid weight loss and enormous improvements in my energy levels and mental clarity. Hopefully, this will continue. By the way, I find the suggestion that the above diet would be improved by the addition of a couple of slices of toast or a bowl of rice to be ludicrous. [/QUOTE]
