[QUOTE="zand, post: 1090011, member: 85197"] Misleading or not, I wish someone had said LCHF to me years ago when I realised I was pre-diabetic. It was something I took a long time to discover for myself and only learnt that others were doing it too when I joined this forum 2 1/2 years ago. I was misled when I first got here by someone advising me to count calories as well as low carb. That didn't work for me. It's for each of us to find out what's best for ourselves by trial and error. If something doesn't work for you , then don't continue doing it. We can only advise on what has worked for us. What is important is that we share our experiences. Also we didn't choose the acronym on this forum, it's known world wide so I don't see that discussing the name is that helpful because when newbies google it's LCHF that they will find. Compared with my long ago days of scraping a tiny amount of low fat spread onto my wholemeal toast the amount of fats I consume now is high, so I did need to increase my fats. This 'high' might be the same as someone else's starting point, so they might not need to do so. It's all relative. I would say though that apart from a specific injury my general aches and pains in my joints have gone since increasing my fat intake so I'm happy that the increased fats are doing me good. [/QUOTE]
