[QUOTE="bigladneast, post: 1888484, member: 490794"] The doctor suggested that I lose 2 stone which would be a weight I have never been since teenage years I told her that was impossible as I generally float between 14.6 st and 15 st, hence she said if you can stick the Newcastle diet it will drop the weight off you and also be very effective in lowering your HBCA1. Tweaks to my diet will be very easy to make as previously I was consuming a very high level of carbs and sugar, I would raid the cupboards, have tea then eat more junk. So I think cutting this out will show the improvement you are suggesting. The doctor agreed and said you don't have to give anything up just in moderation i.e allow myself a takeaway once a week. In terms of drinking I drink larger but not excessively maybe 1-3 pints a week and probably 3 weekends away with lads a year where it is non stop drinking, she didn't think that was an issue as long I was back on the healthy balanced diet upon my return. Infact I made her aware I am off away with lads in the middle of the newcastle diet period she said stop the diet for the weekend, enjoy myself like I normally would with pints and food and re-start the diet upon my return. 2 weeks in to the Newcastle diet and it really hasn't been that tough, 1st week I craved a full english, second week I am craving a ham and beetroot sandwich but I feel less bloat and more energetic than previously and I have lost 7lb in weight.
