any one struggling to sleep on a low carb high protein diet
I am generally eating high protein low carb as its seems to work for me - lots of energy, and I don't feel hungry between meals, plus losing weight on the scale.

How much does a stone weigh?
I've lost a stone (14 pounds) in 8 weeks. It's been jolly hard work with a breastfeeding 1 year old, two bouts of flu and not much freedom to schedule in running etc. I've noticed my general fitness increased - I can run 20 minutes at 5mil/hour now whereas 8 weeks ago I could only run for 5 mins without stopping. And my…
