[QUOTE="Lakeslover, post: 2478478, member: 541354"] Am I right in thinking you and/or your wife have posted on here before? In which case a number of people have already explained to her that a low carb high fat diet will not increase her blood sugars? Reading your post it sounds as if different doctors have done every possible test and have indeed proved your wife is not diabetic. I would trust their decision and the science on that. it is also clear (from an independent viewpoint) that your wife is likely to have an eating disorder which is a very difficult thing to overcome without professional help. I think you are a supportive husband in a very difficult place. Perhaps withdrawing all her testing equipment would just cause her to eat less in fear of her blood sugar levels going up. I really agree she needs professional help for her diet and it is hard to know what else to suggest without risking making the situation worse. [/QUOTE]
