Hello,

I thought it would be interesting if we could have a look at the fundamentals here; in a secret ballot type way; what sort of control are people getting on a low-carb diet?

I would hope that I could also post the same to the non-low carb forum to see how they are doing.

That way we could see on a Type 1 basis if there is any difference in long term control?

I've chosen Type 1 only as it removes the vagaries of still functioning beta cells; so please DON'T POST if you are a Type 2, Type 1.5 or Gestational diabetic.

Obviously, people can cheat all they want here as it anonymous, and I guess you can vote multiple times, but I'd hope you won't; we may get some interesting results?

All the best

Dillinger

I'm getting a whiff of election rigging here....

Could the person with the HbA1c higher than 10% just quickly pm me to allay my fears?

Thanks
