I’m now 78, gave up smoking at 32, gave up sugar at 60, don’t eat between meals, eat smaller healthy balanced meals, my wife and I go dancing three time a week, I am 3 stone lighter than 20 years ago and have a good quality of life. If you look after yourself you will live a better quality of life for much longer. Keep active. Martin it looks like you have had a wake up call and are on the right track. Keep on it, as Dell boy would say, “you know it makes sense”.
Hi Martin and Sharon. Here I am again with hopefully some positive as I always try and do because your videos are a joy for Ray and me. You invite us into your family and family way of life, you take us with you on your travels and we are so thankful. My husband Ray was diagnosed with prostate cancer last August after 3 Cruises and an absolute bombardment of rubbish food and sugar despite my best efforts of trying to convince him otherwise. He has come through his therapy and the result is 0.03 psa. Since this result and watching and listening to you he finally agrees with what I have been saying over the past 2yrs that sugar and carbs are a killer. We know exactly where you are coming from Martin and congratulate you on your strength and determination since Christmas. I really want to say please don’t let some of the comments make you low or think you are doing anything wrong the proof is seeing you looking so well. If people do not agree with how you are eating then they really do not have to watch do they. We don’t know you but we love you both very much, God bless and keep up the good work to stay healthy. xx❤
Well said. Great results. Amazing that people have not kept up with new thinking. Suppose the pharma companies would loose too much money if the general population were more up to date.
I have learned that sugar has no food value whatsoever and in fact is the cause of a lot of disease such as type 2 diabetes, dementia, Parkinsons, and gut problems after doing a lot of research on the internet. I am so pleased that you are reversing your health problems with diet alone, cutting out sugar and carbs. I too have cut out sugar after one year and the result is tremendous. I no longer crave sugary drinks, sweets , chocolate etc. Have lost one and half stone and have so much more energy and less aches and pains. You are a great inspiration on this channel, to encourage people to make a life time choice to be fit and healthy. The sugar industry is making people sick and the media/ advertising, needs to stop encouraging all this garbage processed food and , get on board to stop putting the NHS in in crisis, which cannot sustain the cost of ill health in this country. Love this channel and how you both are authentic and real and just put it out there what a lot of us are already thinking. I envy your relationship together, so lovely to see.

I love carnivore. I’m a natural carnivore. Never eat sweets for years. I have an aversion to that taste, I don’t eat veggies, I don’t eat fruit nor pastas. I cook molecular gastronomy to make pastas. 1 gram in a bowl. That is alginate. Seaweed.
Glad to hear that your tests came back normal ,really enjoy you vidios keep doing what your doing its definitely working for you and both you and Sharon are looking good .xx
I’ve started “carnivore way of life” been three weeks and I’ve lost just under 1 stone!! It’s amazing. I’m a 57 year old woman and I didn’t think it was possible after menopause etc…..we have all been taught wrong. Fats don’t clog arteries. Refined carbohydrates and sugar does. Good luck and well done 😊
I’m so proud of you Martin.Doctors are not Nutritionists.most of us have as much knowledge as them over food.. They just print out the leaflets. So well done Martin and also you Sharon.Do your research folks and find out for yourselves like Martin has done.
You do it your way nobody knows your body the way you do, I can see you’ve lost weight already especially in your face. Loosing a stone is a massive achievement. Keep going Martin & Sharon you are both amazing & I love watching your videos every night. ❤
The effects of your new diet is overwhemlingly evident Martin.👏🏼👏🏼 and thanks to you and Sharon for sharing those great health tips aiding such remarkable results. It's so encouraging!😊
Well done Martin! That's amazing news, I'm over the moon that you're feeling so much better. I'm enjoying seeing what you're eating to keep everything under control. That's brilliant 👏 👍
This is FANTASTIC news !! Well done!! When I wrote my comment a month ago (for you to change your diet) I felt guilty. ‘The Slaw’s’ have had similar problems to you guys. Carry on - you look so much better and this video was so lively, full of energy.
What a revelation, I’ve just had my dinner (it’s a Northern thing). Went to Tesco bought sardines in brine, mackerel in spring water, mashed them together, to be honest I thought the mackerel would be oily and smelly but no it wasn’t, added chopped lettuce, chopped red onion, chopped red pepper, tomato, and added fat free vinaigrette dressing… absolutely fantastic. Thanks Martin
Well. I'm 74 now. I have Parkinson's, CKD, an impaired heart, have had open heart surgery, cancer twice - have gone from being diabetic to being pre diabetic - been unable to exercise because of Parkinson's, can t. Do keto because of CKD - BUT, am now fasting for 20 hours a day instead of twice a week! I've lost a stone - still eating things probably not good for me but I'm honestly not craving food by fasting. God alone knows if its actually doing me any good but I feel better for getting rid of some weight! Good on you martin! I'm carrying on regardless and hope you do the same! 🙆
Well done Martin, not easy when you're doing it on your own either. I didn't know vegetables could cause bloating. We are so used to eating what's in the shops and advertised as healthy when it's far from it. Knowledge is King :)
So happy for you Martin, keep doing what works for you as everyone's different. Glad you're now full of energy & getting your health back on track again.
You and lovely Mrs Butler are truly real, respect to you both for being real . The main thing is that your here and your family around you. Sending hugs xx
Martin, keep eating the food to achieve your goals. Myselfe eating salmon, tuna, lean turkey and vegetables, and sensible portions sizes. Along with plenty of water and moderate exercise ,I lost considerable weight. Sharon and Martin are 👍👍
Well done Martin !!! You know your body and it’s working for YOU !!! Nobody else but you . We are all different what’s right for one doesn’t mean it’s right for the other . Keep it up - I can see that spring back in your step 😉😉
Martin, that is such good news, to hear about your health improvements, in just one month!! 🎉🎉 And kudos to Sharon, for her efforts and hard work in doing all of this home-cooking. Very good, Butlers!!! 👏🏻❤👏🏻 Cheers from Linda in So. California 😊
You are spot on about the refined carbs Martin , the cravings will go when you leave them out , carbs spike insulin levels and then after a couple of hours your body will crave another “ fix “ . At the end of the day you must eat what is right and works for you and benefits your long term health. I wish you and Sharon both well on your new healthy eating plans . ❤xx
This video shows the type of person you are, not many people would give out this information about themselves in front of a camera , it’s one of the reasons we love you both, no flannel no hiding from the facts . Believe it or not coming from you it will encourage people to look at their own diet and health including myself. All the best to you and Sharon .
I reversed type 2 Diabetes, I eat lot,s of food that I Like , Not much Bread, Rice or Pasta, Sweet stuff, I like Dark Chocolate sugar free Bisquits. Keep up the Great Information and service to the Public Martin/Sharon .
I've done very similar to you over the past 6 months, was diagnosed with prediabetes, so cut out lots of carbs, eye opening stuff when you research it! I recently discovered Gullon sugar free biscuits which means I can still have a little treat without spiking my blood sugar ( I use a BS monitor to test all foods I have) found sugar free chocolate recently as well, avoid white bread as this is very high in carbs, have No sugar added wholemeal bread, White rice is a definite no no, as is pasta, both send my BS sky high ! Trouble with anything white is there is no fibre to counter the carbs, so always go for wholemeal or similar, Warberton's do a No Sugar added wholemeal bread, which I can have with no problems, and if you freeze it this reduces the effects even more, freezing changes the molecules or something like that, as does toasting bread ! I also learnt that if you divide the Carbs by the amount of fibre in the contents then this can help as well, my target is less than 10-1 (Carbs-Fibre) 5-1 is the target, anything over 10-1 forget it !
👏🏾👏🏾 well done martin amazing u have done fantastic and you look amazing and you can definitely see your weight loss respect to you for doing wht you had to do and i personally know how hard it is myself but also well done to Sharon aswell for playing her part in your recovery and helping you keep going xxxx
Great news Martin that your PSA test came back normal.Must be a relief. As for your diet it’s yours so other people shouldn’t need to worry because they don’t have to eat that way. If you have the odd “treat” you just jump back to your routine Well done x
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for referring to it as "Type 2 diabetes" and not "diabetes". I have a close relative with Type 1 Diabetes and I can't tell you how annoying it is when people don't distinguish. ❤
Well done Martin your smashing it. So proud of you. I was just wondering what glucose monitor that you use as I am now border line Type 2 and was thinking of getting one. Well done again you’ve done great! Bernice
I had gall bladder issues for years, put off the surgery but the pain became unbearable. It’s gone since 2012 and the stone was huge. Best thing I’ve ever done ❤
So pleased at what you have achieved Martin, I'm in awe of your willpower! You are obviously doing everything right. I haven't got as much will power as you, I started the week off well but I've relapsed today, I'll try again tomorrow. Well done .
Your videos have been incredibly informative, really easy to follow and extremely thought provoking thankyou .Also so much change in a short space of time, Dare I say food for thought.😊
Good to see you’re feeling better and the changes are paying dividends. You got me back on it and I’m still slogging away at it. Got myself a CGM which really helps keep me on track when I can see how different foods affect me. Going for next HBA1C end of Feb so will be interesting to see if it’s come down. I’m determined to do it with diet not medication. Keep at it x
Martin well done for persevering with your healthy eating plan. 👏👏I am so pleased you are feeling better and have your energy back. I’m sure Sharon is pleased too 😉🤣. Only you know your body and only you can do what your body is telling you what it needs and how it feels. Here’s to the next stone 👍👏👏
Hi Sharon and Martin😊, CONGRATULATIONS on your recent levels Martin!!!! FABULOUS!! I've already remarked on your appearance especially your colour and complexion and how well you're looking. You've done so well 👏 and of course a new regime is never a walk in the park, digestion variations, hunger pangs etc. so you've excelled at staying power and application. Now you can reap the benefits and enjoy your good health.🎉❤
The most important thing is that you are doing what works for you and thank you for sharing. Looks like it is paying off for you and pleased you are feeling better. I have had quite a few ideas from your videos - not all of them work for me but like you say everybody is different and I am lucky I don't have diabetes, just arthritis. My weight loss is much slower but its getting there
Well done Martin...... please keep it up.....I’m sure you can continue with your food vlogs, it will be a fantastic journey we can all come on with you when you experience new foods that will be good for you....also the Whitby vlogs were wonderful........I found what works for me.....and lost the weight I wanted.....I don’t eat in the mornings.....only after 12 o’clock.....but eat what I want, not many carbs or sugars........Good luck xx
My husband has recently been diagnosed with Diabetes and high cholesterol. They've given him medication as it was out of control, but he is determined to reverse it with his diet. Everything you have said about your body and how you felt before clean eating, we can so relate to all of them, and I am watching you and your outcomes with interest. Thank goodness things are looking so much better for you than where you found yourself at Christmas, long may it continue and improve. Much love x
That’s great news Martin about your Journey how well you are doing, I was really concerned for you a month ago when you became unwell, just goes to show how diet plays a big part in our health, I’m changing my diet at the moment mainly due to high blood pressure but weight also, plus aches and pains, also been getting out for walks, keep up the good work, what you are doing is obviously helping you ❤😊xx
Well done Martin. You have done immensely well all on your own. If what you eat suits you then its a good sign. As long as you feel good and are healthy then keep going your doing well. Portion control is another lot of peoples issues. Once you get that sorted and as long as you feel good then you are doing something great. Its not a ‘one thing fits everyone’. You just have to find what suits you and you seem to have done that😊. Well done to you both for bringing these videos to us and you bring a lot of joy to many of us. Thank you both❤
Hi both, so pleased that your both feeling well on the new clean eating, whatever makes you feel happy,is the key.Thank you once again for your vlogs,very much appreciated,big hugs and love to you both Sue & Ben (Woodhall Spa) xx
Well done Martin! You are obviously doing exactly what is right for you and it is paying dividends! I can't believe the amount of people who have diabetes etc, yet refuse to consider that their diet might be a contributing factor! I'm 72 next week and have recently given up alcohol and sugar etc and have lost a stone in a month! My old Mum used to say "you are what you eat"! She lived to the great age of 98 and when she died she was only taking one tablet for a hiatus hernia! Keep up the great work and know that many of your followers support you and are delighted for your progress!
Well done Martin, I’m going on a low carb eating plan through my drs surgery. It makes a lot of sense to me . Thank you for this vlog I need to lose a lot of weight and I’ve got to do it because of my health I’m pre diabetic at the moment. Keep up the good work . From Linda C ❤😊
Martin, well done. You have great motivation. You look younger and healthier. Thanks to yourself & Sharon for all the cooking tips. I always struggled with it. Both of you are good teachers. I especially love yer savory mince. Stay healthy.
Well done Martin👏You deserve great credit for sticking with it. The results speak for themselves. I'm 59 and I know how hard it is to change the habits of a lifetime. Juicing and cutting out bread is what worked for me. All the best.
Well done Martin, an inspiration to us all, I too am T2 and finding it difficult to lose the weight but other health issues are getting in the way of me to keeping active but not over doing things. It's hard, but cutting the carbs out I hope it works for me, so good health and happiness to you n Sharon.❤x
Nice video. Ive had Type 2 for a few years. What I've noticed is if I go for a walk about 30 mins after a meal my blood sugars come right down. Losing weight definitely helps.
Well done Mart. Medication should be for a short time, not a lifetime. Too many doctors want to give you meds for life , the easy way out if you like. I was diagnosed with type 2 and did exactly the same thing, plus a good 20 minute sweat a day and went from 17st 2 to 13st 9. My bloods are a regular 5.5 each day. Again, well done mate
Catching up after moving house and going away for a week, all I can say is thank you so much! Was pre diabetic 2 yrs ago when first got ninjas and made literally a cake every 2-3 days! Nw my blood sugar is ok, but i have all the symptoms you had so utterly relate, going to look at your recent vids from last 4 weeks, I need this so much. Well done Martin hats off to you! Jan ❤x
You've done all the right things, I had a scare when I was diagnosed with prediabetes last August, I.ve done my homework like you, cut out the carbs, I lost 1.5 stones in 3 months, and hoping to have my A1C blood test in the next few weeks, hopefully I've reversed my prediabetes, but I wish you well with your journey !
Massive well done Martin. As us u say, results speak volumes. I've done keto approx 4 yrs, dropped 5 stone. 1 meal p/day. This wk I've done a 50hr fast. Eat when hungry is the key,& no processed food. Your "new" cooking & way of living won't be for everyone but your channel will lose/gain accordingly. Keep it up u pair..🙌🙌
Well done Martin congratulations on improving your health simply changing your diet and sharing your amazing results with your viewers. I may be mistaken but it’s a pity Sharon doesn’t join you she may not have the diabetes problem but would benefit in many other ways and help you on your journey to good health. My husband and I have been keto/low carb for about 3 years now and the benefits are immense and feel sorry for the critics as they have absolutely no idea how much better they will feel and look. Keep going Martin look forward to following your progress. We started this in the Covid lock down and have not looked back.
I've been carnivore about 3 months now and your carnivore video came up in my recommended list. Nice to meet you and I'm happy to hear you are feeling better now, me too, more energy, motivated, happier mood, losing weight. Keep it up, looks like you have a carnivore channel now.
Excellent Martin, keep up your great work. I've saved this video so I can show it to my husband. Unfortunately, he was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2019 which had mastastizised to bone cancer which led to major spinal surgery. I'm trying to educate him and feeding him healthier green food, meat and less carbs. Weight wise he's a way to go because of hormone therapy but we'll get there. Thank you for your video 😊❤
I think you have done so well Martin, I think everyone has to do what is right for them. I learn so much from both of you. I love canned fish, kippers, sardines, salmon, shrimp or tuna in salads,or mixed with mayo and spread on celery.
Hi Martin and Sharon, I have been watching for sometime now, and have enjoyed all of your ventures. I try not to make comments about things that I know little about... but do believe we all know our own bodies and can work out what helps or hinders. So glad you are feeling better and I'm certain it has taken a lot of worry off Sharon's shoulders. As a family I wish all of you the best. Toni. x
By following a no carb diet for a year now, I've gone from 117kgs down to 90.3kgs. I've not always lost weight, but I've lost more than I've ever put on since changing my eating habits. I do have cheat days on special occasions. I've gone from a size 26 to a size 20. Thank you for your channel as it is what made the light switch then on for me. Keep doing what you're doing. I love your channel. I also was type 2 diabetic and had high blood pressure. I've gone off all my medications because of this change.
Hi Martin and Sharon, I’ve been watching your videos for a while but not commented before. I just wanted to say well done on your results so far, Martin, that’s brilliant! I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis 30 years ago and was put on a shedload of medication that made me feel even worse, so researched and went on what would be called a keto diet now. As a result I was able to ditch the pills and felt so much better. I still had plenty of people telling me how wrong and dangerous it was for my health but I ignored them, just as you have done. You know what works best for your body , no one else. You both look amazing with your new way of eating and I’ll look forward to following your journey. All the best to you both from a fellow Sharon!
Good luck with it all Martin and keep on eating what feels good for you. I'm doing dry January and following your recipes. Lost half a stone so far and feel a lot better in myself so thanks for the tips in your vlogs. Love the daily meal vlogs. Best wishes to you and all of the family.❤
I have type 1 diabetes and now my weight is rising so thanks to you I’m now going to change my diet plan. Thank you for making me rethink my way of eating. ❤
Terrific job Martin! You do look different and I'm looking forward to watching your progress over the next few weeks. You are so committed to this and doing so well. I love the two of you; take no notice of doubters, the proof of pudding and all that; just look at your results! xx
Well done Martin ,fantastic achievement on your health...I've been following similar foods as yourself and in 3 weeks feel much better with loads more energy...thank you for sharing this and look forward to your next video👍👏
So glad you guys are highlighting PSA testing and prostate problems. . My hubby had no symptoms, he then developed back pain . After 18 months going back and forth to the gp with various different diagnoses . He then had a PSA test that for his age should have been between 3/4 sadly his came back at 13000. This is one of the highest recorded, so he was terminal at diagnosis he survived 5 years . Go get tested guys and keep monitoring your PSA
So good to hear your health has improved...we love watching the channel, love hearing and seeing you both in the kitchen, with the family (especially lil' Frank!) and active on your trips...(you've taken control and benefiting...its good for you, for the Mrs & the entire family...because you'll be around longer in the end!) Brilliant work...I, myself, will be making the attempt with the same...(you both are such a genuine, "real" find here on YT...have been watching constantly since finding your channel...keep it up, all the best...) ✨🤙🏼✨
Well done Martin you’ve done amazing keep up the good work , I’ve been healthy eating myself it’s not easy , but health is very important . Love your channel , and love Sharon too she makes me smile she’s fab! Xx
Thank you for this video. Pleased that at last you are on the right track for a healthy life. So much makes sense to me the greens that bloat is one I suffered for many years. Diet in healthy eating IS the way to control so many of the bodies ills. I have fought off the drs & hospital medies that made me so ill & replaced with Omega 3 Pitted prunes plus vitamins D B & C. Magnesium Zinc . I now feel MORE myself & in control. I cook in butter plus use the Air Fryer . I have followed your very informative videos. I have laughed WITH you on your days out . 👍
Your on the right track. Medical Medium...will show you so much more. Liver Rescue is one of his great books and recipes...so much more to see. My grandson just was in horrible pain..better now and daughter showed him how to eat. She follows MM. He saved her...enough said.
So pleased to know you are doing well on keto. I’ve been carnivore for about a year and love it. However I couldn’t stop the cream cakes and chocolate. So I made the decision to stop all sweet foods on 1/1/24 and I’m doing great. No regrets. No desiring a chocolate bar. Friends are astonished I don’t eat their homemade cakes. It’s a no thank you I choose not to eat them. Keep up the good work. X
Changing your diet is relatively easy,the hard part is STAYING on it!
Diet is hard lol
If it's working for you keep it up but if you wish to have something have it and I promise you will fell better stay safe
I’m now 78, gave up smoking at 32, gave up sugar at 60, don’t eat between meals, eat smaller healthy balanced meals, my wife and I go dancing three time a week, I am 3 stone lighter than 20 years ago and have a good quality of life. If you look after yourself you will live a better quality of life for much longer. Keep active. Martin it looks like you have had a wake up call and are on the right track. Keep on it, as Dell boy would say, “you know it makes sense”.

great news martin im so pleased for you dont worry about other people just get yourself better mate i love your channel take care guys
Well done Martin !!! You know your body and it’s working for YOU !!! Nobody else but you . We are all different what’s right for one doesn’t mean it’s right for the other . Keep it up - I can see that spring back in your step 😉😉
Hold your head up Martin your doing well and it shows. End of day it's your body your life, keep going Martin, you'll be here for many years yet.👌🥰
Props to you Martin for looking for solutions and altering your diet. Great to hear you're on the up! 👍
Martin, that is such good news, to hear about your health improvements, in just one month!! 🎉🎉 And kudos to Sharon, for her efforts and hard work in doing all of this home-cooking. Very good, Butlers!!! 👏🏻❤👏🏻 Cheers from Linda in So. California 😊
You are spot on about the refined carbs Martin , the cravings will go when you leave them out , carbs spike insulin levels and then after a couple of hours your body will crave another “ fix “ . At the end of the day you must eat what is right and works for you and benefits your long term health. I wish you and Sharon both well on your new healthy eating plans . ❤xx
This video shows the type of person you are, not many people would give out this information about themselves in front of a camera , it’s one of the reasons we love you both, no flannel no hiding from the facts . Believe it or not coming from you it will encourage people to look at their own diet and health including myself. All the best to you and Sharon .
I reversed type 2 Diabetes, I eat lot,s of food that I Like , Not much Bread, Rice or Pasta, Sweet stuff, I like Dark Chocolate sugar free Bisquits. Keep up the Great Information and service to the Public Martin/Sharon .
I've done very similar to you over the past 6 months, was diagnosed with prediabetes, so cut out lots of carbs, eye opening stuff when you research it! I recently discovered Gullon sugar free biscuits which means I can still have a little treat without spiking my blood sugar ( I use a BS monitor to test all foods I have) found sugar free chocolate recently as well, avoid white bread as this is very high in carbs, have No sugar added wholemeal bread, White rice is a definite no no, as is pasta, both send my BS sky high ! Trouble with anything white is there is no fibre to counter the carbs, so always go for wholemeal or similar, Warberton's do a No Sugar added wholemeal bread, which I can have with no problems, and if you freeze it this reduces the effects even more, freezing changes the molecules or something like that, as does toasting bread ! I also learnt that if you divide the Carbs by the amount of fibre in the contents then this can help as well, my target is less than 10-1 (Carbs-Fibre) 5-1 is the target, anything over 10-1 forget it !
Well done Martin .so glad your feeling better .
Glad to hear all your results come back ok Martin . Love to Sharron and family
I have noticed in your recent daily vlogs that you are looking very well Martin. Its very good news for you, well done.
Well done Martin. xxx
👏🏾👏🏾 well done martin amazing u have done fantastic and you look amazing and you can definitely see your weight loss respect to you for doing wht you had to do and i personally know how hard it is myself but also well done to Sharon aswell for playing her part in your recovery and helping you keep going xxxx
Great news Martin that your PSA test came back normal.Must be a relief.
As for your diet it’s yours so other people shouldn’t need to worry because they don’t have to eat that way.
If you have the odd “treat” you just jump back to your routine
Well done x
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for referring to it as "Type 2 diabetes" and not "diabetes". I have a close relative with Type 1 Diabetes and I can't tell you how annoying it is when people don't distinguish. ❤
He always does, he puts other people who should know better to shame.
Well done Martin you are an inspiration.
Well done, mate. iv stopped smoking 4weeks ago and feel so much better. Next is a diet . Keep up the great work mate 👍
Well done Martin your smashing it. So proud of you. I was just wondering what glucose monitor that you use as I am now border line Type 2 and was thinking of getting one. Well done again you’ve done great!
Bernice
Its called Accu Check you can get them on Amazon
@@butlersempire 👍 thank you. Keep going, you’re an inspiration!!
Bernice
Well done Martin.you do look a lot better. Hi Sharon you look after him well . I have type 2 aswel I’m trying to to get my blood sugar down .
I had gall bladder issues for years, put off the surgery but the pain became unbearable. It’s gone since 2012 and the stone was huge. Best thing I’ve ever done ❤
It is really paying off by looking at what you are eating. Well done Martin.
The results speak for themselves. Well done, Martin. ❤
So pleased at what you have achieved Martin, I'm in awe of your willpower!
You are obviously doing everything right. I haven't got as much will power as you, I started the week off well but I've relapsed today, I'll try again tomorrow. Well done .
that's the thing, once you get past the first few days eating this way, you don't have to rely on will power.
Your videos have been incredibly informative, really easy to follow and extremely thought provoking thankyou .Also so much change in a short space of time, Dare I say food for thought.😊
Good to see you’re feeling better and the changes are paying dividends. You got me back on it and I’m still slogging away at it. Got myself a CGM which really helps keep me on track when I can see how different foods affect me. Going for next HBA1C end of Feb so will be interesting to see if it’s come down. I’m determined to do it with diet not medication. Keep at it x
Fantastic news you are on the right track getting your health back in shape.
Martin well done for persevering with your healthy eating plan. 👏👏I am so pleased you are feeling better and have your energy back. I’m sure Sharon is pleased too 😉🤣. Only you know your body and only you can do what your body is telling you what it needs and how it feels. Here’s to the next stone 👍👏👏
Hi Sharon and Martin😊,
CONGRATULATIONS on your recent levels Martin!!!! FABULOUS!!
I've already remarked on your appearance especially your colour and complexion and how well you're looking. You've done so well 👏 and of course a new regime is never a walk in the park, digestion variations, hunger pangs etc. so you've excelled at staying power and application. Now you can reap the benefits and enjoy your good health.🎉❤
The most important thing is that you are doing what works for you and thank you for sharing. Looks like it is paying off for you and pleased you are feeling better. I have had quite a few ideas from your videos - not all of them work for me but like you say everybody is different and I am lucky I don't have diabetes, just arthritis. My weight loss is much slower but its getting there
Well done Martin...... please keep it up.....I’m sure you can continue with your food vlogs, it will be a fantastic journey we can all come on with you when you experience new foods that will be good for you....also the Whitby vlogs were wonderful........I found what works for me.....and lost the weight I wanted.....I don’t eat in the mornings.....only after 12 o’clock.....but eat what I want, not many carbs or sugars........Good luck xx
My husband has recently been diagnosed with Diabetes and high cholesterol. They've given him medication as it was out of control, but he is determined to reverse it with his diet.
Everything you have said about your body and how you felt before clean eating, we can so relate to all of them, and I am watching you and your outcomes with interest.
Thank goodness things are looking so much better for you than where you found yourself at Christmas, long may it continue and improve.
Much love x
That’s great news Martin about your Journey how well you are doing, I was really concerned for you a month ago when you became unwell, just goes to show how diet plays a big part in our health, I’m changing my diet at the moment mainly due to high blood pressure but weight also, plus aches and pains, also been getting out for walks, keep up the good work, what you are doing is obviously helping you ❤😊xx
Good luck Zoe
@@butlersempire thank you
Well done Martin. You have done immensely well all on your own. If what you eat suits you then its a good sign. As long as you feel good and are healthy then keep going your doing well. Portion control is another lot of peoples issues. Once you get that sorted and as long as you feel good then you are doing something great. Its not a ‘one thing fits everyone’. You just have to find what suits you and you seem to have done that😊. Well done to you both for bringing these videos to us and you bring a lot of joy to many of us. Thank you both❤
Hi both, so pleased that your both feeling well on the new clean eating, whatever makes you feel happy,is the key.Thank you once again for your vlogs,very much appreciated,big hugs and love to you both Sue & Ben (Woodhall Spa) xx
Well done Martin! You are obviously doing exactly what is right for you and it is paying dividends! I can't believe the amount of people who have diabetes etc, yet refuse to consider that their diet might be a contributing factor! I'm 72 next week and have recently given up alcohol and sugar etc and have lost a stone in a month! My old Mum used to say "you are what you eat"! She lived to the great age of 98 and when she died she was only taking one tablet for a hiatus hernia! Keep up the great work and know that many of your followers support you and are delighted for your progress!
Well done Martin, I’m going on a low carb eating plan through my drs surgery. It makes a lot of sense to me . Thank you for this vlog I need to lose a lot of weight and I’ve got to do it because of my health I’m pre diabetic at the moment. Keep up the good work . From Linda C ❤😊
Well done Martin, respect to you for keeping with your change in eating habits. I already can see the difference in you, you are looking younger xx
Absolutely Amazing so Glad you’re doing Well, and feeling much better.
Martin, well done. You have great motivation. You look younger and healthier. Thanks to yourself & Sharon for all the cooking tips. I always struggled with it. Both of you are good teachers. I especially love yer savory mince. Stay healthy.
Well done Martin👏You deserve great credit for sticking with it. The results speak for themselves. I'm 59 and I know how hard it is to change the habits of a lifetime. Juicing and cutting out bread is what worked for me. All the best.
Well done Martin, an inspiration to us all, I too am T2 and finding it difficult to lose the weight but other health issues are getting in the way of me to keeping active but not over doing things. It's hard, but cutting the carbs out I hope it works for me, so good health and happiness to you n Sharon.❤x
Nice video. Ive had Type 2 for a few years. What I've noticed is if I go for a walk about 30 mins after a meal my blood sugars come right down. Losing weight definitely helps.
Well done Mart. Medication should be for a short time, not a lifetime. Too many doctors want to give you meds for life , the easy way out if you like. I was diagnosed with type 2 and did exactly the same thing, plus a good 20 minute sweat a day and went from 17st 2 to 13st 9. My bloods are a regular 5.5 each day. Again, well done mate
Catching up after moving house and going away for a week, all I can say is thank you so much! Was pre diabetic 2 yrs ago when first got ninjas and made literally a cake every 2-3 days! Nw my blood sugar is ok, but i have all the symptoms you had so utterly relate, going to look at your recent vids from last 4 weeks, I need this so much. Well done Martin hats off to you! Jan ❤x
You've done all the right things, I had a scare when I was diagnosed with prediabetes last August, I.ve done my homework like you, cut out the carbs, I lost 1.5 stones in 3 months, and hoping to have my A1C blood test in the next few weeks, hopefully I've reversed my prediabetes, but I wish you well with your journey !
Well done to you both. ❤
Massive well done Martin. As us u say, results speak volumes. I've done keto approx 4 yrs, dropped 5 stone. 1 meal p/day. This wk I've done a 50hr fast. Eat when hungry is the key,& no processed food. Your "new" cooking & way of living won't be for everyone but your channel will lose/gain accordingly. Keep it up u pair..🙌🙌
Nice work!
Whatever it is you are doing, is obviously working for you and it shows. Congratulations.
Well done Martin congratulations on improving your health simply changing your diet and sharing your amazing results with your viewers. I may be mistaken but it’s a pity Sharon doesn’t join you she may not have the diabetes problem but would benefit in many other ways and help you on your journey to good health. My husband and I have been keto/low carb for about 3 years now and the benefits are immense and feel sorry for the critics as they have absolutely no idea how much better they will feel and look. Keep going Martin look forward to following your progress. We started this in the Covid lock down and have not looked back.
Sharon is eating cleanly, we don't need to share that though. All the best.
I've been carnivore about 3 months now and your carnivore video came up in my recommended list. Nice to meet you and I'm happy to hear you are feeling better now, me too, more energy, motivated, happier mood, losing weight. Keep it up, looks like you have a carnivore channel now.
Well done, love you two, you are so honest and feel like part of the family! Keep doing what you’re doing!
Thank you so much!
Excellent Martin, keep up your great work. I've saved this video so I can show it to my husband. Unfortunately, he was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2019 which had mastastizised to bone cancer which led to major spinal surgery. I'm trying to educate him and feeding him healthier green food, meat and less carbs. Weight wise he's a way to go because of hormone therapy but we'll get there. Thank you for your video 😊❤
When you get 5 minutes,Google cancer studies ivermectin..Also tons of very positive testimonials from previous cancer patients that are taking it..
I think you have done so well Martin, I think everyone has to do what is right for them. I learn so much from both of you. I love canned fish, kippers, sardines, salmon, shrimp or tuna in salads,or mixed with mayo and spread on celery.
I’m waiting for Sharon to start her diet and I’ll follow her 👍🏼
Sharon is eating a clean diet but not quite like mine as she doesn't have T2 diabetes.
Well done mate keep up the good work.
Hi Martin and Sharon, I have been watching for sometime now, and have enjoyed all of your ventures. I try not to make comments about things that I know little about... but do believe we all know our own bodies and can work out what helps or hinders. So glad you are feeling better and I'm certain it has taken a lot of worry off Sharon's shoulders. As a family I wish all of you the best. Toni. x
By following a no carb diet for a year now, I've gone from 117kgs down to 90.3kgs. I've not always lost weight, but I've lost more than I've ever put on since changing my eating habits. I do have cheat days on special occasions. I've gone from a size 26 to a size 20. Thank you for your channel as it is what made the light switch then on for me. Keep doing what you're doing. I love your channel. I also was type 2 diabetic and had high blood pressure. I've gone off all my medications because of this change.
Well done Marcia.
Hi Martin and Sharon, I’ve been watching your videos for a while but not commented before. I just wanted to say well done on your results so far, Martin, that’s brilliant! I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis 30 years ago and was put on a shedload of medication that made me feel even worse, so researched and went on what would be called a keto diet now. As a result I was able to ditch the pills and felt so much better. I still had plenty of people telling me how wrong and dangerous it was for my health but I ignored them, just as you have done. You know what works best for your body , no one else. You both look amazing with your new way of eating and I’ll look forward to following your journey.
All the best to you both from a fellow Sharon!
Well done Sharon.
Good luck with it all Martin and keep on eating what feels good for you. I'm doing dry January and following your recipes. Lost half a stone so far and feel a lot better in myself so thanks for the tips in your vlogs. Love the daily meal vlogs. Best wishes to you and all of the family.❤
Sounds great!
I have type 1 diabetes and now my weight is rising so thanks to you I’m now going to change my diet plan. Thank you for making me rethink my way of eating. ❤
Good luck.
Terrific job Martin! You do look different and I'm looking forward to watching your progress over the next few weeks. You are so committed to this and doing so well. I love the two of you; take no notice of doubters, the proof of pudding and all that; just look at your results! xx
You have BOTH done fantastically well. ❤❤❤
Very Interestin Medical Report and information, thank you for your plain talking, I wish you both good health. God bless
Well done you have done amazing,

Martin you need to do what you do and feel better for doing it! But everyone needs a Sharon to encourage and nurture, big love to you all xx
Nice to see you both glad you are 0n the mend. Stay positive and keep smiling
It's been inspiring following your journey, you have done very well. You are looking fresher and slimmer. Well done x
So glad you guys are highlighting PSA testing and prostate problems. . My hubby had no symptoms, he then developed back pain . After 18 months going back and forth to the gp with various different diagnoses . He then had a PSA test that for his age should have been between 3/4 sadly his came back at 13000. This is one of the highest recorded, so he was terminal at diagnosis he survived 5 years . Go get tested guys and keep monitoring your PSA
Sorry to hear that.
So good to hear your health has improved...we love watching the channel, love hearing and seeing you both in the kitchen, with the family (especially lil' Frank!) and active on your trips...(you've taken control and benefiting...its good for you, for the Mrs & the entire family...because you'll be around longer in the end!) Brilliant work...I, myself, will be making the attempt with the same...(you both are such a genuine, "real" find here on YT...have been watching constantly since finding your channel...keep it up, all the best...) ✨🤙🏼✨
Well done Martin you’ve done amazing keep up the good work , I’ve been healthy eating myself it’s not easy , but health is very important . Love your channel , and love Sharon too she makes me smile she’s fab! Xx
Well done for taking an interest in your health and showing how important diet intake can be to keep healthy.
Well done Martin. Good luck as you continue your journey back to full fitness
Well done Martin, you are doing it all the right way buddy well done, you look better all ready, 👍👍👍👌👌👌
Thanks 👍
Thank you for this video. Pleased that at last you are on the right track for a healthy life. So much makes sense to me the greens that bloat is one I suffered for many years. Diet in healthy eating IS the way to control so many of the bodies ills. I have fought off the drs & hospital medies that made me so ill & replaced with Omega 3 Pitted prunes plus vitamins D B & C. Magnesium Zinc . I now feel MORE myself & in control. I cook in butter plus use the Air Fryer . I have followed your very informative videos. I have laughed WITH you on your days out . 👍
Thank you so much 😁
Very well done Martin you are on track to reach your goal. Take care x
Your on the right track. Medical Medium...will show you so much more. Liver Rescue is one of his great books and recipes...so much more to see. My grandson just was in horrible pain..better now and daughter showed him how to eat. She follows MM. He saved her...enough said.
So pleased to know you are doing well on keto. I’ve been carnivore for about a year and love it. However I couldn’t stop the cream cakes and chocolate.
So I made the decision to stop all sweet foods on 1/1/24 and I’m doing great.
No regrets. No desiring a chocolate bar. Friends are astonished I don’t eat their homemade cakes.
It’s a no thank you I choose not to eat them. Keep up the good work. X
That's great!
