Aaaahhhh Honey Honey...
Day 6 of my no sugar diet. I feel great, bit on edge I think? Been easy really. Well, shopping is hard work when I walk past the Topics... Been buying kiwis instead.  |

Keep at it OP. Let us know every day how this is going. I do love threads where we get an insight into the minutiae of the everyday lives of people I’ll never encounter  |

Sugar is addictive you will find after a month or so you will stop craving completely. Sorry if stating the bleeding obvious but make sure not eating hidden sugar in processed foods or you will never beat it. Good luck x |

"What exactly is a healthy diet? I genuinely don't know any more. "
Avoiding processed foods, meats and sugars as much as possible, low on refined carbs, but ensuring sufficient fresh veg and fibre, with some fruit, and a little wine and chocolate if you fancy! |

The experts change their minds every week.
I'm eating 1kg of M&M's. Green ones = veg. |

Isn't that how science works? People research, investigate, gather evidence, develop knowledge? |

Depends on your health requirements, what your doctor says, etc. "
I don't have any health issues apart from hypothyroidism which requires iodine. My doctor has never mentioned my diet apart from that |

They seem to don't they. I honestly don't know if I'm eating correctly according to current advice. I'm healthy that's good enough for me
Red M&Ms are equivalent to apples if you eat enough of them apparently  |

Huh. I thought you got enough iodine in vegetables. I should check on that, thank you.
Complex, me? ... maybe  |

He suggested I used iodised salt and ate a lot of fish. I don't think it's an issue if you have a normal thyroid function. |

"I wasn't told very much, mostly just take the pills and get checked annually. "
I've read a lot about it. It's amazing what GPS don't know. I was also referred to a consultant after one year to confirm the diagnosis. Things could well have changed in the period between my diagnosis and yours of course. |

Yep I’d concur with that
Having been low carb for 5+ years, and Kero for 2 of those, I’ve come to realise I’m very carb intolerant so I think a near-carnivore future is on the cards for me

Do you find that keto affects your teeth at all? Makes them weaker/ break? |

My mum tried Keto. Her friend convinced her it would cure her of diabetes. She's stopped taking her insulin and then ended up in hospital with a clot in her leg that moved to her lung  |

Jesus. Don't combine unusual diets with serious chronic health conditions without robust medical advice! |
