[QUOTE="Sid Bonkers, post: 496527, member: 19121"] Interesting diet suggestions and almost identical to the diet that I have eaten for the last 5 years and one that has brought my bg down from 29 mmol/L and an hba1c of 12.6% to 5 years of hba1c's in the 5%'s. And I also lost 4 stone in the first year although I was much stricter then and drank little or no alcohol and no more than 60 to 80g of carbs, then I relaxed my diet to the one you have outlined above and have lost another stone over the last four years. :) The only differences that I see between your diet suggestions and my diet are that I dont eat enough oily fish as frankly I dont like it, when I saw a dietician she made the same comment but its hard to change your diet to include things you dont like. The other differences are that I do eat small portions of basmati rice which due to its molecular structure and unlike other types of rice is extremely difficult for the human stomach to break down into glucose so a couple of spoonfuls has little or no effect on my bg levels. I also eat small oranges and the occasional non ripe banana too. Everything else though is as I eat and have eaten for the last 5 years. I have to admit to being pleasantly surprised as when you first posted here I was unsure of you both as a doctor and about the advice you were proposing as this forum has seen more than its fair share of low carb trouble makers over the years hence the troll remark and yet you are now advising an almost identical diet to the one I have eaten successfully for the last 5 years. By the way I apologise for the troll remark,I believed you to be not what you seemed as I said before this forum has seen many low carb trolls over the 5 years since Ive been a member here. I wish you luck for the future and for your patients futures too and for the award that you have been nominated for also. [/QUOTE]
