[QUOTE="VashtiB, post: 2357819, member: 511345"] I'm sorry that I also do not agree. For most type 2s carbs are a problem. We are already insulin resistant and unless we reduce our carb intake we will become more insulin resistant. You seem very young to be a type 2 and [USER=343949]@Geordie_P[/USER] comments seem to suggest that you already take insulin. If this is the case this is something that should be disclosed when giving advice to new people. I am very motivated to do what is necessary to reduce my insulin resistance and to avoid taking insulin. If I am mistaken I am sorry. I still think that my reducing carbs has been what I needed to do to keep my blood sugar levels down (and lose more than 30 kgs without counting calories). However, if you are not on medication (other than metformin) and your diet keeps your blood sugar levels in the normal range and it is sustainable for the rest of your life then that is great! I tried for many years eating very low calorie- I can calorie count with the best of them- that lead me to diabetes and I felt more deprived then I do with very low carb. Whatever works is my view- your meter is the ultimate judge and mine tells me that low carb is working for me. [/QUOTE]
