Great to see someone else eating the low carb way! Skimmed down the postings and amazed at how many people are eating banana (VERY high in sugars!), bread, crackers , rice, etc etc. I find it such a no-brainer to eat low carb (NO bread, rice, pasta, potatoes, etc etc) and put Type 2 in remission, come off the meds. If a symptom of diabetes is an excess of glucose in the blood....it sort of makes sense not to fill yourself with glucose (which is what all carbs become once they're in the body). Not only do I not take diabetes meds, I've also been able to stop cholesterol and triglyceride meds (which I'd been on for over 30 years) and come off statins. But of course, if everyone stopped eating cereals and breads, where would Kellogs and Hovis and the like be??!!
