[QUOTE="poemagraphic, post: 2162062, member: 503830"] I have read your post[SIZE=4][B][URL='https://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/members/svgittins.511839/'] svgittins[/URL][/B][/SIZE] and can understand your apprehension. Firstly I would like to say... "It is early days." You should not fear the High fat element of LCHF nor the Low in low carb. However you could be underestimating your total carb count. Which will have quite an impact. Count in the carbs on everything you use, such as sauces for instance, A 'normal' splash of HP or ketchup or worse still 'low fat mayo could quite surprise you. Normal mayo is far better for you than low fat mayo. Low fat cheeses are far worse for you (higher carb content) then normal cheese. I, like you, at first, just could not get my head round eating so much butter, double cream, cheese, fat on and around my steaks, bacon, sausages, burgers etc, (the higher the meat content, the better they tend to be). Grains, pulses, some fruits, rice, pasta, bread, All of these are all full of carbohydrates that turn out to be, A Type 2s worse choice. What are you eating each day? It maybe these hidden critters, that can be so elusive and so damaging to our BGL. and our whole body. Drink plenty of water every day... that's at least 2litres (just water, nothing added). I hope you see the truth in the above. There is a ever growing amount of evidence to support a lower carbohydrate diet to control Type 2. Check out the success several of us here have experienced.
