[QUOTE="satindoll, post: 1799911, member: 121584"] For any t2 having to take Insulin is not a sign of failure to follow a particular diet or lack of will power......... anyone who thinks it is and criticises us for same isn't worth a second thought. I was Low Carb (IBS and Diverticular Disease) Low Fat (No Gall Bladder) for many years before diagnosis and went straight on Insulin as oral meds were counter indicated due to the above. I weighed 9st 6lb at diagnosis and still weigh between 9st 2lb and 9st 6lb....... my Insulin units are 5 units Insulatard in the morning and 6 units Insulatard at night.......... I also take 5 or 6 units Novo Rapid with my evening meal dependant on menu. I consider myself very lucky as my insulin needs are very small, mainly because I still low carb and the only changes I've made to my diet is to change to full fat cheese, yoghurt and mayo and double cream instead of single cream in my coffee and a little more protein [/QUOTE]
