[QUOTE="DCUKMod, post: 1584199, member: 345386"] One part of Dr Unwin's presentation that made my ears prick up a bit was his statement that one of his patients adopted the LC diet and subsequently put their T2 into remission. The difference for this individual was that they did not lose weight along the way. I didn't note the timing of the statement, within the presentation, so I will watch it again when I have a chance. Whilst the majority of those who explore the LC way of eating for T2 appear content, if not delighted, to trim up a bit along the way, there are clearly, and regularly those for whom weight loss is undesirable. It is great to know, from an extremely reliable course that it is possible to achieve remission without weight loss. When I was diagnosed, I never set out to lose weight. My only goal was to moderate my blood sugar readings to the best place I could achieve, whilst still living a good and fulfilled life. There's no point in having "perfect" bloods only to find one isn't healthy or happy or able to function socially. I know Dr Unwin repeatedly referred to hope, and I totally agree with him in that regard, but hopefully this reduction in HbA1c and int remission, without weight loss could extend the circle of hope, a bit.
