[QUOTE="xyzzy, post: 318187, member: 40343"] :lol: Yes sorry but we do like to protect our new members when the NHS line gets sprouted at them. I expect chalcedony means well but to many of us its the NHS dogma that got us to where we are now. In my own case I got diagnosed pre diabetic in Dec 2010 and took all the diet leaflets and adopted the standard NHS low fat starchy carbs with every meal advice and followed it conscientiously. The result was by March 2011 I had an hBA1c of 8.3% and by December 2011 it was 11.3%. Did you know that no distinction is drawn between the diet recommended for non diabetics and the one for T2's in this country and that the last time the advise was really updated was back in 1991.
