Discussion
I caught a little snippet on the radio yesterday about this diet.

What attracted my attention was mention of bacon and eggs for breakfast!

The thread on why humans crave fatty foods reminded me to update on what happened with the Harcombe diet in our house.....
Having started this thread I said to Mrs H that once we got back from joliday I'd cut the carbs out for a bit, as it happens this years joliday was a trip in France, us in our Morris with a chum in his VW. It happened that his wife had the Harcombe diet on her kindle.....
Much evening discussion ensured and we decided to give the Harombe diet a ago.
Mrs H eats hardly anything all day then scoffs a load of Hagen Dazs ice cream in the evening, she's not fat, in fact I've eaten a french fry with more fat on than her, but its not a great diet.
Day 2 of the Harcombe diet she was poorly in bed with chronic tummy ache, to the point she didnt go to work (2nd day sick in 9 years).
When I got in from work I felt crap, I was certain the drastic change of diet had made her poorly so I coked some pork with peppers, shrooms, in cider, added a bit of cream, few veg and a nice pile of Jersey Royals. She was fighting fit within an hour or 2.
As far as I am concerned the first 5 days of the Harcombe diet intending to force one into Ketosis is foolish.
Zoe Harcombe is £6 better off (less Amazon's fees) and there a bloody great butternut squash looking at me everytime I go into the kitchen which I've got no idea of what I should do with it!
