Poorly router

My router has all but given up the ghost. My ISP are sending out some new power pack or some such thing, to see if that will help. At the moment I can read the forum on my phone, and post with a dongle. However, to some people's relief, my posting may be intermittent until I get the new part. Even then there is no guarantee it's going to work. I am certain I have a spare router somewhere, so will have to see if I can find it. I store all my diabetic info on line, so am feeling a wee bit nervous. I don't really look back, but it's the knowing I can, at the moment it's knowing I may not be able to and it's making me panic. So, if I'm not around much, I'm not sick, just routerless

Hope you get it all sorted soon.

I was trying to find the post about IGF-1 (if I'm remembering right), fasting, calorie restriction, etc. and thought you might like to listen to the latest Ask The Low Carb Experts as Colin Champ talks about it quite a bit (whoosh, way over my head) in his discussion of cancer and ketogenic diets:

Absolutely I would. I have stopped IF as I can't see the point - externally. Internally may be different, but it seemed a lot of pain for no obvious gain. Thanks, will listen now while I still have internet. :lol:

Seems like you are doing right by yourself by being on a ketogenic diet - not so sure anything further is actually needed. You're way ahead of most in that regard

The ketogenic diet just seems to be the way my body works best. I find on a ketogenic diet I have adapted to a calorie range that is allowing me to lose weight at a steady pace and keep low steady BG levels. I am always on the lookout for things to try. At the moment my main concern is IGF-1 and how I can lower it. I think the Newcastle Diet possibly did just that, but I doubt I am still benefiting from than now. So working on a way to lower IGF-1 is my aim now.

Thanks for this, i have listened to it all. It was about cancer and the ketogenic diet, so not really appropriate for me, but the information has gone in, should I ever be unfortunate enough to need alternative treatments, should I ever get the dreaded big C. This may well be of use to others, and is a very good resource to keep hold of.

Thank you. I have cheated a bit, I have a dongle I am using now, but I can also use my phone, but I had forgotten the password for here, so could have read but not posted. Anyway, I have sorted that out now and will be able to use my phone (we must have a half decent hotspot near by). I detest typing on my phone, but if needs must, well I will just have to won't I? :lol:
