[QUOTE="deb1960, post: 1668076, member: 245847"] I rang my dn the other day to ask for advice on injecting insulin when I'm not having a meal. I explained that I was doing low carb and the 5.2 diet. She was completely shocked and told me that they didn't support "these fad diets" and I should eat a crumpet immediately! She also told me that I should eat low gi food 4 times a day. No wonder I've gained weight since my initial diagnosis. I was previously told that injecting insulin would make it virtually impossible to lose weight. I've only been doing the low carb for about 10 days and I've lost half a stone and my bs are around 5 where before they were scarily high. Up to 11.5. She said as long as I wasn't getting regular readings of over 12 I was doing really well! [/QUOTE]
