Feast and Fast
I have got out of the habit of eating after 14:00, and I have to eat to keep up to my target weight! (no sympathy expected) I have been Intermittent Fasting (IF) 20/4 for over 18 months, and fasting for 68 hours most months - but I missed last month, partly because I was below my target weight (95kg

I need help
Hi, I am so fed up with the way I feel and look because of my weight . I stopped smoking a year ago and lost a friend due to ill health and so began eating. I have put on almost five stone in the last 12 months 😢 . It’s time to kick myself up the backside and change my eating disorder. Plus I can’t

Thanks for the informative information
Hello, I was diagnosed with PMR in August 2018, started on 15 mg pred, which worked like a dream. Been tapering ever since but have found it very difficult from 10 mg downwards. Now stuck on 7 for a good few weeks after having a really bad flare. That was when I, thankfully, found this forum, I had been

Merry MidWinter everyone!
It’s a few months since I posted here. I’m still following a very restrictive anti-inflammatory auto-immune diet and lifestyle and after nearly two years of doing so my rheumy says the PMR is now in remission although I’m still on 3mg Pred and slowly continuing to taper so I’m not quite sure what that

Would this drug be safe for hypothyroid folks to try?
https://www.huffpost.com/entry/what-is-saxenda-the-new-b_b_7103932 Don't know if it is available in the UK. In the US it was first released as a Type 2 Diabetes treatment, Victoza. Now, double doses by injection are marketed for weight loss as Saxenda.

Pre-diabetes - weird time to post this!
Hi all, I thought I'd pass on my latest discovery which is along the lines of "Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food", in case it's helpful to anyone. In September I was dxd with pre-diabetes, likely at least to be partly steroid induced, my blood test having gone up from 38 in April

Multi vitamins
Hi guys, I have been taking BioCare Adult Multivitamins & Minerals for approx a year now. I’ve recently read up that Alpha Tocopherol is not good for us. This BioCare product contains this ingredient. Do any of you know of a good multi Vit that doesn’t contain it? Thank you Mandy

High Fat vs High Protein diet for Type 2 diabetic
I have consulted a renowned endocrinologist in Bangalore for my diabetes management. As my BMI is on lower side (18.5), he suggested to have 2200 KCal diet plan for increasing my weight and changed medication Olymprix M 500/20 mg (metformin/teneligliptin) from twice to once a day. Also regarding diet

Is creatine a bad idea?
Hi is it dodgy if I take creatine? I'm early stage one CLL. I've gone on a vegan low-carb diet and my numbers go down each month with it but I've lost some weight. I wonder if taking creatine to boost my muscles is a bad idea. Thank you!
