I got the book yesterday and had a carb free but not calorie counted meal last night. I’m starting the eight week plan today. Haven’t got diabetes as far as I know, but have symptoms of high blood pressure (lethargic, thirsty etc) and am overweight. I’ve given up other diets very quickly, but am hoping that if I see rapid results with this one it will keep me motivated.

Best of luck Patsy. Make good use of the threads on the forum, as there’s loads of advise and support here. If you are faltering call out and someone will offer some encouragement. But right now, hope you make a good start and find losing weight motivating enough to keep you focused and on track.

Hi Patsy
have you been tested for T2D ?
Lethargy and thirst are classic symptoms.

Thanks, SunnyB – will do.

No, Bill, I haven’t been tested. I’m due a medical check fairly soon, so I’ll mention it then.

Ooops – just realised I put blood pressure when I meant blood sugar!
