[QUOTE="zand, post: 1808978, member: 85197"] Hey I was being sympathetic to you. I would hate to be T1. I didn't say it's alright for you because you're T1 I said the only perk was that as a T1 you can mostly eat what you like. The quote from Diabetes UK is simply misleading, wrong and very irresponsible!. Controlling T2 by diet is not being a martyr to the disease, far from it, it's choosing to eat good wholesome foods which everyone should be eating, diabetic or not. Who wants to martyr themselves for the food companies' profits? Not me! Edit: Of course T2s can chose to eat junk if they want to do so, but I prefer to achieve non-diabetic HbA1cs and therefore avoid diabetic complications. [/QUOTE]
