Thanks for that Cankster. It's all this negativity that stops me telling most people I am on LT. Like Mick, the damage I was doing to my body before this diet is indescribable, I was at risk of diabetes, stroke, heart attack and my BP had risen alarmingly! Just over 4 months later my BP is back down to it's usual low reading, I have more energy than for ages and am just overweight. My skin has never looked better, neither have my nails and my hair, although thinning rapidly is less greasy than it has ever been! I am in control of my body at last!
There will always been those people who are not happy at being a size 8 and want to be a size 0 who will try anything to get there but, if pharmacists stick to the rules then they will have to do it some other way.
LT works for me and that is good enough for me.
