[QUOTE="JoKalsbeek, post: 2295992, member: 401801"] Can I respectfully disagree? The blame-game isn't going to help anyone. I didn't glutton myself into T2, and neither did a lot of other people. It's a metabolic, genetic condition. [I]We just can't process carbs properly.[/I] I have PCOS, which causes insulin resistance, and T2 runs in my family on dad's side. Double whammy, there was no escaping the T2 eventually. Others have medicinal reasons for T2, but all in all, no, we did not bring this upon ourselves. Speaking for myself, I barely ate at one point, only crammed down what my dietician told me to, which was low fat, high carb... Making things exponentially worse. Really, be careful about the whole "you brought this on yourself with donuts" thing, because that just doesn't ring true and it's one heck of a generalisation. Not to mention a hurtful one that keeps people from asking for help out of misplaced feelings of shame. There's no shame in this. Not at all. [/QUOTE]
