[QUOTE="ickihun, post: 1883724, member: 196960"] I do low carb. Have done for over a year now. I can see cheese and nuts being a weight adder so if any of your patients cannot lose, they need to lose them. Water is best too, rather than any other drinks. On the 800cals diet it has stopped dairy except milk for shakes. Far less protein too but only a small weight loss for me but still a loss. Only started 800cals on 19th Sep'18 (dated so I can refer back to it if need be). A very tough regime. I can taste the gritty sugar. I'm not sure Soy protein works with my underactive thyroid? In the 80s my meal replacements by Weider FIRMALOSS sold by Argos had me losing 7st+ but I was younger and not sure if Soy/a was used as cannot obtain an old nutrition label. These from Superdrug or Tesco are soy based. A short period on 800cals which are less carbs than most undiagnosed type2s are on may frighten some. Ive had to adapt to it by feeding the sickly hunger on day one but far less sickly today. However I've just started Dapagliflozin to help lose that essential 3kgs off for my op. So not sure if sickly feeling off new tablet or effects on thyroid, blood pressure/fast heart beat but have a cold so my body has reacted to less nutrients. I feel very vunerable and was crying on day one due to hormones. Relieved my endo could think of something for me. I was at the end of my tether as insulin need was rising. Not reducing, like I prefer. [/QUOTE]
