[QUOTE="dbr10, post: 1251715, member: 174581"] My doctor initially told me that I didn't need to see a dietician when I was first diagnosed. I did attend an X-Pert course; and knew that I was in trouble when the first thing I was told is that there is no special diet for diabetes. Obviously type 2 diabetics are carbohydrate intolerant. Recently I saw a consultant about my cholesterol and was referred to a dietician, who told me they recommend eating carbohydrate at every meal - I told her diabetes means I am carbohydrate intolerant, so obviously I can't. She also suggested I eat porridge, obviously having absolutely no idea how it affected my blood glucose. Then she gave me a diet book which read like a fairy tail. You are unlikely to get much sense out of a dietician. My advice would be to see what people say on here. [/QUOTE]
