What is wrong with beef? Or lean pork/lamb? Sounds very odd, but wandering what the logic is.
Can’t afford to live on chicken and fish!

Maybe it's a low fat diet, or low sat fat diet... except for the yogurt.

Can’t have low fat and low carb, surely?
Thanks for the info, Pix - that’s enough to put me off spending money on the programme, needs to be something I can work with feeding the family (even though they need to lose more than I do that’s their choice, not mine) and that isn’t

Low carb / high protein diets seem to be a bit vague about fat from what I can see. As compared to keto, high fat / low carb diets which are sometimes a bit vague about protein.
Intermittent fasting / low carb / high fat is working for me at the moment. Not aiming for permanent ketosis though.
Apologies if this is a thread hijack.

fab UC - which plan and when?
Ultimately it's up to you as to how strict you are
for example I did have pork loin one weekend - but when I did it we also had the supper hot bit so salad was eaten all day every day anyway!!

Will see how it goes but just want to feel fitter and I will need to treat hypos and low blood sugars as I normally do. Will start with the first program as recommended.

I hope you enjoy it and get out of it what you need.
Scott is very positive about the effects of the diet!
I know that my garmin is showing different values since I have lapsed a bit even though my fitness is the same/better
