Just for the personal satisfaction, I'd be inclined to give the rabid dietitian a copy of Trudi Deakin's new book and tell him he needs to update his research :bookworm:

If you are a good person and treat others as you would like them to treat you then don't worry what they think of you; it will be fine. We all have our good and bad points but the good should outweigh the bad.

Hope you had a great evening out with your son and that he had a lovely birthday. Wish him a happy birthday from us all.

Well done on YOUR efforts so far, keep it up. Forget that stupid dietician....bet he's not a diabetic..as all carbs raise our BSs. As the low carb diet seems to be working, don't change. I'm type 1.

I had a great appointment with an endo several years back, then I was wheeled in to see the dietician. She told me to forget blood sugar readings for now and eat her diet as weight loss was more important than BS control. Does my head in.

Any health professional who makes you feel a failure is the failure, not you. Their job is to help, guide and support not demoralise and demotivate. Shame on him.

Hi. How sad that despite doing all the right things your dietician was clueless and not person-friendly. I would never, ever recommend anyone to see an NHS dietician and I assume you won't see this person again. The best diet advice for diabetics (and many others) is on this forum. One of these days an NHS dietician is going to get sued for giving advice that results in early damage; that might change things. Carry on the good work.
