[QUOTE="gardengnome42, post: 1900218, member: 114214"] I so agree with what you say Allie Rainbow. I saw the diabetic nurse a year ago when diagnosed with prediabetes and she gave me the same high carb low fat nonsense you speak of. I told her what I thought of the NHS and their eatwell plate and mentioned the 8 week blood sugar diet - which she was all in favour of!! Extraordinarily she said she recommends it to patients on the quiet but that they have to keep to the NHS 'guidelines' in public. Totally perverse. Interestingly I was seeing a different nurse recently on a different matter in the same surgery and there was no Eatwell plate pinned on the wall. Unfortunately my efforts haven't been good enough and I have to see her again having just had a dodgy HbA1c test. Speaking for myself I feel I wasted 40 years at Weight Watchers following their low fat and high carb regime. The weight I lost always returned because it isn't sustainable imo, whereas high fat and low carb is. My problem has always been that carbs aren't just bread, potatoes, rice and pasta. Fruit is my downfall! [/QUOTE]
