[QUOTE="ianf0ster, post: 2148551, member: 506169"] I've just got back home from an appointment with my DN. Main aspects were:- She was amazed by my progress and congratulated me on doing so well. She didn't seem surprised, was polite but less than supportive when I told her how I was doing it. She was amazed that I was 'self funding a meter and test strips'. She said that test strips are very expensive. I replied that mine cost around £8 for 50 - so not expensive in order to achieve good health. Note that I took a leaf out of Dr David Unwin's book and decided that HF was too big a step, so only told her about Low Carbs. She suggested that I have amazing will power and that most T2's could not give up eating something like bread. I replied that little willpower was involved since all I did was switch from eating certain things I like to eating other things that I also like. [/QUOTE]
