[QUOTE="KennyA, post: 2194821, member: 517579"] Hi, thanks for the reply. I'm committed to low-carb and have done low carb weight loss successfully twice in the past. However no one I saw yesterday mentioned low carb, and when I raised it there was no reaction. All the leaflets handed to me continue to repeat the same guff about generic "healthy" eating and recommend continued carbohydrate intake. The info seems more directed at reducing heart disease than managing diabetes, and I suspect much of the text has just been copied over. It seems OK advice for the average person but less so for anyone with diabetes. I have gone pretty far in removing carbs since diagnosis and am probably having about 0-10g/day mainly from veg. Result, immediate weight loss in the month since and symptoms reduced. No idea what effect it's having on the BG. [/QUOTE]
