Took the graduation celebrations too far!!
I took the 'completing C25K' celebrations far too far 😊 I did my last run last Tuesday and then had a few days off work, met up with friends, had a day at Ascot, looked after my grandson for two days and I've eaten too much, drunk too much and haven't run at all for the last six days! It was fabulous

I absolutely hate them as I get so many side effects and coming off of them is even worst. I have just had my Copd

Are low carb diets any good?
Low-carb diets could reduce diabetes, heart disease and stroke risk even if people DON'T lose weight by cutting down on bread, potatoes and pasta https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-7162631/Low-carb-diets-reduce-diabetes-heart-disease-stroke-risk-people-DONT-lose-weight.html

Low carb advise please
I have been ttc for 16 months, I know compared its not long but after 14 months I went to see the GP and after several blood tests, they have now said I have mild Pcos. The Dr said I need to change my diet to a low carb and low sugar diet, due to my hormone levels being abnormal and insulin being a factor

Success thus far!
So far I have found that the way I am eating and fasting right now has been the easiest way for me to lose weight so far. Easiest in my entire life!

FBS higher after morning walk !!
As a new experiment I checked FBS before and after a 5 KM morning walk. Surprisingly, before walk it was 125 and after it was 145. Googling says it happens as liver produces more glucose on exercising but enough insulin is not produced by my body. Thus the enhanced reading. What to do ??

Dinner time and its impact on Fasting Blood Sugar
My dinner got delayed by an hour for the last two days. Surprisingly, my FBS has come down by at least 10 to 20 points. These are my readings. Last Friday Night Dinner(Emmer wheat chapati of 80-90g approx.) at 9.30 PM. Spike at 10.50 PM was at 166 mg/dL. The next day FBS at 8 AM was 89 mg/dL. Yesterday

What a difference a year makes !
I posted the following in the 'Bridge to 10k' forum a few days ago and it has been suggested that Couch to 5k members might also find it interesting and hopefully supportive to your running journeys: I recently passed the anniversary of my starting c25k. So what's happened during that year? Well Runkeeper

Sugar
Getting a bit lost with all the posts! Someone wrote in recently about flares after eating sugar so thought it worth adding that I had 2 very bad days twice recently after eating quite a lot of refined sugar (once at Easter!). I am not diabetic and still have a relaxed attitude e.g. to a smidgeon of

FDA is making it illegal for compounding pharmacies to compound 300 nutrients. This is an attack on all the Laura Mischleys.
Below is an email I got from the American Association of naturopathic doctors & McGuff Compounding Pharmacy Services, Inc. who makes injectable thiamine for some of us. Apparently the FDA is making it illegal for them to compound approximately 300 nutrients -- even if prescribed by your doctor. "Citizen's

I realise this is the weight-loss forum, but diabetes and obesity are inextricably linked, and we seem to have had quite a few posts on the subject lately. I was unable to respond to lucigret's tag on a closed thread, so herewith a few thoughts on the subject. 1) Back when my mum was a ward sister,

"Algae Cal and Strontiuml"
Algae Cal Plus and Strontium. Does anybody have any experience of these supplements? They claim to improve bone density. They are very expensive.....but their claims to improve bone density seem somewhat plausible. And they are heavily marketed once you show any interest on Facebbok ad......keeps repeating

How strict are you on low-carbs?
I’m trying to bring my A1c back to 5.6. My last test in April showed 5.7. It had always been 5.6 since diagnosed with PMR/GCA in January 2019. I Started on 40 mg of pred, now at 10. I had gotten somewhat off track after Christmas. I’ve read that 40- 50 grams of carbs a day is considered low
