[QUOTE="Anglo_dude, post: 1003476, member: 205041"] I thought it was firmly in the stereotypical perception of T2 diabetes and so played nicely into the hands of the "eat **** get T2" crowd. That said the advice was still sound, remove carbs, particularly processed carbs, go for a walk regularly and generally cook for yourself. I look back at what I ate and whilst it was generally home cooked, it was basically large portions of carbs (usually rice or pasta) and so from a carbs perspective no better (and possibly worse) than eating MacDonalds 5 times a week... Also as we keep saying every diabetic is different (and it's good to see the NICE guidelines updated to reflect this), so there will be people who are T2 purely because of takeaway food. She was lucky in that her body was working as well as it could to process the carbs, and so removing them from her diet had a rapid affect. Lots of us are not that lucky. :) [/QUOTE]
