Zoe Nutrition Testing

[Wombat27A]

Not sure this is the right place for this...

Anyone else doing the Zoe Nutrition Testing?

My results were poor, so now I'm tackling my diet. I thought it was pretty good but it's clear it needs a major overhaul. So much information but finding it good.🙂

When does the food scoring happen?
Do they score everything you've logged?

My results will be back around 15 nov.

@GrimDamnFanjo the scoring happens once you have your results and you start the coaching stage. Yes, anything previously logged will get scored.

@lugeforlife I haven't had anything on retesting. I'd definitely be interested in another couple of weeks with a glucose monitor to really see how my meals are stacking up. But just that part.

I’m STILL waiting for my kit to arrive 😩 it’s been 2.5 weeks now since I signed up and I’m desperate to get started. I messaged them on chat yesterday to ask when it’s expected to be dispatched…Do you get a notification when it’s on its way?

@chutneypig if it was just the cgm bit you’re interested in, you can order those direct from libre for around £100 so might be cheaper to do that.

@MadameLeotta thanks that's very good to know. If I remember right I did get an initial dispatch notification but no further tracking after that.

Does anyone have a referral code ?

Hi Incognito, I have one if you want to PM me.* *

I've finally picked a start date after waiting a few weeks for the right time. Monitor will go in on Saturday which will make next Monday muffin day! Will have to work the timings carefully around work that day as have a few immovable things, but if I don't do it then I'll have to wait another week at least and I'm becoming v impatient!

I have some referrals too if anyone needs any.

That’s exciting @texican I’ve finally received notification that my kit has been dispatched 🎉 Typically I’ve had a few days off work this week so would have been ideal, but I’ll have to see when it arrives and work it out from there. Did you freeze the muffins?

Hi I would love a referral code if anyone has one? 🙂 really intrigued and would love to try Zoe out

@Itsnotallblackandwhite I will PM in case you still have one, hope that’s ok

Enjoy the kick off @texican - lots of fluid for Monday is my top tip!

That's frustrating on the timing @MadameLeotta but at least it's on the way finally.

I'm out of referrals @LFD or would have been happy to help. I'm sure someone will have one.

I have a code @LFD if you want to message me?

Thank you ☺️

aw thank you but I have one now and have signed up. Excited to get started ☺️☺️

Starting TRE this morning as part of Big If. I was also listening to some of the Zoe discussions over the weekend and the Glucose Goddess hacks for smoothing blood sugar. I really prefer yogurt nuts and fruit or porridge with Linwoods for breakfast but she recommends a savoury breakfast - does anyone have go tos ? Has anyone tried the other hacks like a tablespoon of vinegar in water before a meal?

Hi there - I’ve tried but can’t PM, unsure if that’s because I’m not a premium mumsnetter. Can you send me your code and I’ll sign up ? Got a few health issues at the moment so this could be a beneficial distraction atm !

Here’s a code if anyone wants it (I have 3) joinzoe.mention-me.com/m/ol/jx6em-763be25bea

Morning all! I’m thinking about this …

A couple of questions for those of you in the know - with the glucose monitor thingie stuck on your arm, can you swim with it? Also, how much weighing and measuring of food is needed? I’ll be travelling A LOT over the next six months so am wondering if that might put a spanner in the works so to speak?

Thank you ! I’ve just tried to join, website states they will be in touch soon with purchase options

I didn't swim with it. It looks splashproof but not completely waterproof but I might be mis-remembering!

I only weigh oats. Nothing else unless I was trying to get an idea of portion size.

Thanks @Wombat27A, think I might need to wait until next year then.

@MonkeysandParrots I find travelling something of a struggle because it's difficult to track. Weighing isn't a big part of Zoe but planning is. I manage a week here or there but it would be difficult to be consistent over a longer period. Sometimes the app has good coverage of food from stores and shops, sometimes nothing.

@chutneypig I suspected as much so thanks for confirming. Definitely think I’ll need to wait until I get back from travelling to start.
