Starvation diet?
Neither wonder no energy!
Please don't do that again, obviously not for you.
I keep a ready supply of Lucozade in the fridge also!Apart from jelly babies arrange juice is also fast acting too.
Did 600 calories a day for over a year I'm still here.I was diagnosed last September and I got so afraid of eating I went on a starvation diet for 5-6 weeks of just under 500 calories ultra low carb diet per day!
I nearly died 2-3 x but my blood glucose levels went down to 5s and 6s!
Would NOT recommend starvation or very low carb diet to anyone.
Down side I lost a lot of muscle and thats is very hard to get back.
