Has anyone read his book? I thought it was really interesting but I am curious about his take on low carb. He says it doesn’t matter whether you are low carb or not it just matters that you lose weight. Any opinions?
I must confess I feel my brain is in a pickle. I managed gestational diabetes brilliantly with low carb. Lost the plot when my mum died when my baby 7 weeks old. Since then I have gained two stone. I am not diabetic ( yet) but obviously I am high risk.
I have read and watched so much - Jason Fung Gary Taubes Sarah hallberg diet doctor etc but then I read someone saying it’s just calories and not carbs and I question everything. I have a science background and the science behind low carb makes sense but I still doubt myself so it doesn’t help reading Roy Taylor’s opinion.
I am confused and frankly feel I need someone to slap me around the head with a wet kipper to get some sense into me. Without the motivation of keeping blood sugars in check or a healthy baby I seem to not stick to anything for long enough to help.
