Hi Guys

I have read some great success stories on here of people doing the ND. So I have started it and on day 3. I'm doing the 3 shakes a day plus non starch vegies at night. Thought I mite keep a diary in here. First day I was 100.1kg, BS was 14.4. I'm on insulin (Novarapid) and took 12 units.

2nd day BS 9.5 and took 8 units of insulin.
This morning 3rd day, BS 9.7 and took another 8 units.

I'm getting hungry but in my weak moments, I'm hoping to be able to come here and read this and stay strong.

Hi and welcome to the forum. I hope your Newcastle Diet experiment goes well. I don't know the first thing about insulin, but hope it all goes well for you :)

Are you doing this in combination with your diabetes team. As you progress through your journey you will need to have your insulin adjusted/stopped with other medications adjusted as well. Well done and keep going. What is the sorst outcome... you lose a few pounds and nothing changes with the best being med free reveral.

Good luck
