[QUOTE="Geordie_P, post: 2230454, member: 343949"] I haven't done the actual newcastle diet, but I did go very low-calorie when I was first diagnosed: approx 600 Kcal a day. Like you, my numbers went back to healthy levels, and the doctor said the initial T2 diagnosis must have been a testing error. Also like you, I've put most of the weight back on, and I've been thinking of how to lose 30lbs- low cal/ low-carb or what. Honestly, I don't think I can/ should go ultra-low calorie again, or if I do, it will just be for a 'jump start'. I don't see how I could maintain very low-cal for extended years. I think Newcastle diet would work in the long term in the sense that you could use it to deplete glycogen and visceral fat, and once you've completed the initial programme, you can 'maintain' by not putting glucose back into your liver- so LCHF or some sensible variant thereof. For what it's worth, I'm trying to go a little less extreme, and I'm going very low-carb, moderately high fat, moderately low-calorie. Like maybe 1000kcal a day or under, if I can manage it. [/QUOTE]
