As a GP I find #lowcarb to be a VERY effective approach to helping pts with T2D/weight gain.

However, trying to convince my 2ndry care colleagues it& #39;s sustainable is not so easy.

Has anyone managed to keep it up for a year or more? https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🧐" title="Gesicht mit Monokel" aria-label="Emoji: Gesicht mit Monokel">

If so, how long?
Any plans to quit?

pre- #lowcarb ways even if they are bribed

I& #39;ve also learned that

And if you& #39;re in the USA #lchf may potentially save you a tonne of cash!

Clearly not an RCT, but when does N=1 X many thousands count as evidence of sustainability? https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤔" title="Denkendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Denkendes Gesicht">
