I hope fibre is good for you. Eat loads of it. Suger is the devil though. That's easy.

My plan/hope here is twofoldI hope fibre is good for you. Eat loads of it. Suger is the devil though. That's easy.
I wouldn't for a second suggest anyone has this whole thing cracked, but I think its become clear that
1 - Its not as simple as people make out
2 - There's definitely something in all of this, but exactly how it fits together is a long way off being known
Hope you're feeling better soon mate.
Yep, I think that's exactly where we are today. In 25 years, I guess we'll know loads more.Cheers mate. It was work related and I handed my notice in on Thursday (I have a job to go to thankfully) and I'm on holiday this week, so stress levels definitely rescinded! My resting heart rate per my Fitbit rose 22% during the same period - in such a short space of time too!
Agree on your two points too - I think a lot of it is just finding what works for you. My own fitness journey started when I developed complications with my diabetes - they were reversible but I had to improve my control. This was easier to do if I knew exactly how many grams of carbs I was having on a daily basis. And that was easy if I knew the answer was very few (and counted accurately). Therefore, I restricted carbs and virtually 'invented' keto without having read anything on it.
A lady I worked with said she started not eating breakfast and the weight fell off - she'd never heard of intermittent fasting but just found something that worked for her.
As you've said as well there's so much research based information out there it's difficult to wade through at times but I think if you can find something that works for you that avoids a lot of processed foods you're on to a winner!
How's the fibre increase going mate?
I can't have supper due to my Gerd. Otherwise that would be a canny ideaA bowl of all bran for breakfast and a bowl for supper is what I do.. Roughly 10-12g fibre in each bowl depending on how much I have. Add to that 5-10g from other foods throughout the day and it's easy enough.
I could actually adjust als Kitchen curries in a similar way come to think of it..Aldi do a 'slimfree' frozen veg curry with a masisve 24g fibre in if you're struggling.

Chickpeas are lovely for example
BTW, I still seem to shitting a lot.
I've struggled to find foods that I would say "I really like that" for years. Even a lot of the crap I eat is purely for convenience rather than taste. But it dawned on me a while back that I really really like loads of different types of beans, and they're healthy as owt.One of the reasons I mostly go for Dhansaks these days
You're might still be eating more than you're burning. When I get the balance right I have one a day at most & can sometimes go a couple of days without one regardless of how much fibre.

tabletsAny tips for getting a bit extra fibre in?
Really?tablets
Really?
I'm already taking
2 x prescription meds
1 x cod liver oil
1 x probiotic
every day.
What's the crack with fibre pills?
I was thinking about looking at Huel again tbh. My lunches are still my dietary week spot.
Huel out of the question, it has sucralose in it.
I take it instead of statins, as it's meant to lower cholesterol, which lowers the risk of complications with my diabetes, but psyllium husks are essentially pure fibre. 3 x capsules in the morning and three at night give you c. 22 grams of fibre. But then it's a pretty expensive way of getting a little bit more. May be worth looking into though.
what do you mean? They're tablets, with fibre in them. If you're struggling getting enough it's an option.Really?

Its just the "tablets" bit - seems odd that there might actually be a magic pill!what do you mean? They're tablets, with fibre in them. If you're struggling getting enough it's an option.
As it happens, I bought a huel starter pack today since I found they did a version with no artificial sweetener
