Not sure on these if anyone can help please.

46d Man's diet tips ultimately included green yogurt(not filling).(7) T-N-A-D ???

49d Rings using networks where rate's beginning to drop a bit (5) G-R-S Gyros ??

28d Prevent girl wearing badge going up and down.(8) D-S-L-O- Can only think of disallow, don't know where the badge part fits in ?

TYNWALD

Not sure about this but could the badge be ID? (DI reversed) Is the girl SAL?

DISALLOW. Sal is the girl. down = low. badge = ID going up = DI

How about GIRDS?
Networks = grids and a 'down' clue; rate's beginning = R to drop a bit

Thank you Sammy, wouldn't have got Tynwald.Was thinking of colours, not grass for the green bit.
Get 28d Now, I was thinking Di for girls name. Silly me and clever you !

Sammy. I'm sure TYNWALD is correct (Man's Diet). Could you please explain the clue for me? I can't see it.

Thank you Jolan. Will get the Tipp-ex out !

I didn't actually work it all out once I had got the word! However, I saw it as being along the lines of indicating the tips of words - so the beginning and/or end letters of words such as DIET, GREEN, YOGHURT etc. As I say, I didn't really work out all the detail of it.

Jolan, Having looked at it again since you asked me about it, I'm wondering if the "green" reference might be LAWN (written in reverse in TYNWALD). That leaves TYD. YT from the end letters of yoghurt in reverse. D from DIET. Or possibly DT from DIET and Y from yoghurt.
