[QUOTE="NicoleC1971, post: 2525066, member: 365308"] Keto is the prescription strength version of low carb and to my mind seeems a more viable option than going very low cal and thereby dropping your metabolic rate with the afore mentioned issue of having to adapt to normal eating again. It has been admitted that the inevitable result is eating a reduced amount of calories or risking a return to type 2. I know people who've done the 800kcal diet and it seems to have become an annual fixture, a bit like Lent, as they cycle back to weight gain because they hadn't sorted out the underlying issues. However the diet is safe, whether via real food or via the shakes/soups etc,, as in nutritionally complete if it is NHS prescribed. As for Ozempic, it isn't fixing the underlying issue but does work by getting your body to produce a littler amount of insulin in response to food. As others have said, I'd be wary of taking a drug to do this when there are possibly other ways to increase your sensitivity to your own insulin. [B]Remember it is important not to rush into keto or a new low cal diet or drug. You can take time to really think out how this will work for you in the longer term.[/B] [/QUOTE]
