Does the NHS know what it's talking about?
Almost everyone in the UK is aware of what the NHS tells us is healthy eating, yet 2/3 of are are overweight, millions have type II diabetes (a disease that was very rare even in the 1980s), and more than 1/3 of us have pre-
diabetes

Please help - hypo/hashimoto's symptoms and potentially worrying blood tests, but GP not interested
Hello everyone, I have had long term symptoms suggestive of hypothyroidism and/or Hashimoto's, I think, and there is also a family history of it on my mother's side. I also had some tests 4 years ago which flagged an 'enlarged thyroid gland' but no action was suggested. Unfortunately the GP kept dismissing

Newbie here, I started yesterday.
In January 20 I was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes. Between Jan 20 - Jul 20 I lost 4 stone body weight with diet alone. I have some way to go but am confident I can hit a healthy BMI before the end of the year. In Aug 20 I decided to take up C25K to help with my fight against diabetes - I really want

Moving forward
This is a follow to my previous post from a few days ago regarding advice on self medicating/treating. Having now received my Medichecks results for my Thyroid Ultravit test (bloods drawn on Wed, 29th July) and spoken to my GP in a brief (and pointless) medication review by phone this morning I feel

Vegetarian lchf summer supper
Here are the dishes I cooked for my family when they came over earlier this evening. As it was so beautiful and warm outside, I served everything cold. There are stuffed peppers (with cherry tomatoes & fresh basil); beetroot hummus; roasted apricots with tomatoes & feta and butter beans with red onions

3 Year old Gluten Free Diet?
I had a telephone consultation with the nurse on Friday about my sons Tummy problems. Bloated. Foul smelling stools. He is always telling me his tummy hurts, he wakes in the night crying about his tummy. We have kept a food diary - wheat based products do seem to be the culprit. He is also very tired

Not the news I wanted
Well - that’s a bit of a bummer - following my recent set of blood tests, I received a phone call from the surgery; in a rather too enthusiastic voice (I thought) I was told ‘you are officially diabetic......‘ ‘Your previous result was 48 and your last one was 52 - I’m putting that down as steroid-induced

Stretching
I keep forgetting to stretch after my runs. Week 2 1st run and my shins felt like they had pins and needles. This wears off during the run but I suspect its because I haven't been stretching. I don't want to have to give up so I'll try to remember. So far it's not been as bad as I thought. I hate running

Cholesterol and thyroid test results
Following on from my post 4 months ago - my GP agreed to raise my thyroxine dose to 100mcg and see what happened to my cholesterol. I feel a little bit better for the raised levothyroxine but still get very tired in the afternoon and evening (basically only have any energy in the morning) and still

First day of LCHF lifestyle
Good morning everyone As the title suggests today is the first day of my change for life. After researching and years of yo-yo dieting I came to the conclusion that dieting does not work, what I need is a complete change of lifestyle. I have PCOS which means basically I’m insulin resistant. I think

Trying to combine IF with LCHF
I am almost at the end of my two week extreme low carb, as advised, after eating lowish carbs and losing weight slowly for a few months. After a discussion on here, I am also trying to work towards 16:8, but at the moment I have not even achieved 14:10, which is an interim goal. I have always been hungry

Determined to keep type 2 Diabetes free
One of my motivators to reduce my waist size and lose weight is not to tip into the type 2 Diabetes from being prediabetic. A weight loss buddy is aiming to reverse Diabetes so we cheer each other on.

The most successful diet?
I wonder if it would be possible to produce an analysis with a graph depicting which diet has been the most successful out of all the followers and contributors to this forum???? I started the 5:2 but didn’t stick with it. Before Easter and before lockdown, I lost half a stone on the Easter challenge

Hello Basten, been reading your post and replies. There’s a GP on twitter I follow; he’s had outstanding success reversing people’s diabetes, which was achieved by reducing their carbs. All the people lost a lot of weight and many reversed their diabetes or put it in remission and no longer needed their
