[QUOTE="yzablocki, post: 1633145, member: 456265"] T2. diagnosed 2.5 years ago. was on 4 medications which brought my fasting sugar down to 170. not really the answer. Im not obese just a bit overweight (5"7 185 lbs.). 6 weeks ago I dropped all medications and im on a 700 calorie diet. (slightly mimicking the diet of post by-pass patients). i dropped 18 lbs and my fasting sugar is 140. not good enough, but at least no meds. 2 more weeks of this diet and then i need to figure out what is next. Don't want to go back on the meds. Im asking the above question because im leaning towards a low fat diet and possible a high carb vegan diet, but i dont want to give up chicken breasts if it has only 2-3% fat. i will give it up if we are talking 23% fat. If it is low in fat, why is it so necessary to give it up? is it so much worse than avocado? [/QUOTE]
