Hi today I attened a juggle group for type 2 diabetics..todays topic was food..there was one diabetic nurse and a dietician they all insisted that we need carbs with each meal..ie pot or pasta or rice. They did make big deal of portion sizes..and explained about fruit and fruit juice and so forth..my confusion is the carbs..I asked about low carb and although they all said yes its ok and you will loose weight long term the weight will slow and creep on again and that the low carbs means that our body won't have enough energy to function..I don't want you all to shout at me but which is right ..low carb or small portions of sensible food ie granery bread and wholewheat and wild rice.limited oranges and grapes and so forth.I have lost weight on low carb but I'm now worried it will pile on again....
