Hello could anyone give some more advice on this 12 week plan? How does it work? What are you meant to eat? What is included?
Many thanks
 
If you are using your actual email address as a user name you may want to amend it. Welcome to the forum. I am past the
age group for the shakes programme. You are not. There is a forum section about remission with lots of contributions. Some have been on the formal programme which importantly offers support others have worked their own way using diet supplemented by some shakes.

Good luck.

Thread 'My weight loss and T2D journey'

So been slowly putting on weight since I was about 35, I'm now 59.
From being a fairly slim and athletic young'n I'm now a rotund middle aged geeza!
When young I used to walk a lot, run on a regular basis, play football, play golf, play squash, and cycled quite a bit, so was always very active.
For work I had very manual jobs, then became a plumber, still manual, but then became a surveyor and so started the many years of mainly sitting at a desk! I slowly stopped doing the sporty stuff, and for many years I hovered around the 15-16 stone mark (101g).
During Covid I spent a lot of time...
