[QUOTE="Pipp, post: 1525342, member: 100904"] Hi [USER=425152]@Peerless67[/USER] I have just come across this thread, and wondering how you are getting on. It is tough being a carer, and trying to care for yourself can be difficult when putting someone else first, so well done for making some decisions about your own health. There are a few things I have noticed in your posts that have me curious... Is your GP aware of you stopping some of your meds, and is he / she being supportive and monitoring your blood pressure, blood glucose, ketones? With you having previously had a stroke, it would be wise to have that support. You mention not being able to get Optifast, which is the meal replacement product used in the orginal Newcastle diet pilot study. It doesn't need to be Optifast, though. There are lots of supermarket own brands that are just as good. Also some that can be ordered online, such as Shake that Weight, which was recommended to me by a member here, [USER=98752]@paulins[/USER], who was a successful Newcastle dieter. I used Lipotrim, which was only available at pharmacies, and the cost included regular checks at the pharmacy. If you want to use real food, should the tins of soup become tedious, there are some great examples of meals in the blood sugar diet.... [URL]https://thebloodsugardiet.com/how-it-works/[/URL] Good luck with it all, and remember to drink plenty of water. I found I wasn't feeling hungry after day 2, but the water also helped, as did peppermint tea and soda water. [/QUOTE]
