It was my fault I got diabetes.
I wasn't fat when I was young.
I'm taking responsibility.
My doctors told me to lose weight, I ignored them, as eating was easier.
I developed diabetes.
Then I decided I would lose weight, again the doctors said I should, but this time i needed to.
I took responsibility there as well.
Now my diabetes is effectively in remission.
So, looking back, I had a lifestyle that is now advised will promote diabetes. It did for me.
I changed to a lifestyle that was suggested would improve diabetes. It did for me.
So, I disagree that because not every diabetic would fit into that category, it should never be said.
All diabetics won't be helped, but then again many will simply from being told to eat healthier.
And if the Newcastle Diet study is indicative, about 50% of that 11% would be helped in one fell swoop.
