    You may have already seen this article ' How Much Does Low Carb Cost?' from Libby at 'Ditch The Carbs' site ... but if you haven't I think it well worth a read. She writes:

    "A question I am asked often is “How much does low carb cost?”. Many perceive changing from a high carb diet to a low carb diet will cost a small fortune. Read on to see why I don’t believe it does and my top tips to help you save money while you transition to low carb.

    LOW CARB COSTS VS HIGH CARB COSTS

    How much does low carb cost can be broken down further into short term costs and long term costs. Short term costs are your immediate expenditure such as your grocery bill whereas long term costs are medical bills, supplements and other lifestyle burdens that you cannot put a price on. There are so many factors beyond money. Health, pleasure, well being, contentment, calmness, weight and longevity to name just a few."

    I often wonder where all the food went from my HCLF days. I used to have to eat, or snack, every couple of hours, but I never put on weight until after the dietician got a hold of me.

    What I eat now may be more expensive but I eat far less of it. As an old fart I no longer pay prescription charges but even so I have deleted my statin, H2 blocker and antidepressant. If I'd known then what I know now the NHS could have avoided wasting a whole bunch of money on antidotes to the diet.
