[QUOTE="AndBreathe, post: 1075050, member: 88961"] In the interests of your education, it could be useful for you to do some reading into whether an expanded girth in T2s is cause or effect of T2. Your findings could be very enlightening. Of course, all rules don't apply to all people - whether it be obesity, diabetes or plain arrogance, and of course there are people out there, in all walks of life, with all manner of afflictions who don't help themselves, but sadly not everyone is as well armed as we on here can be. I do believe T2 diabetics deserve far better information at diagnosis and significantly more meaningful advice on diet too, but it is an unfortunate fact that not all diabetics are able to reverse their conditions, or even make mammoth improvements, due to many factors. Such factors could be time undiagnosed, other illnesses and/or associated treatment regimes, existing organ damage and plain old bad luck. Diabetes, in my view, really is a significantly varied "portfolio disease", by which I mean it has many causes, many forms which drives a need at times for creative condition management. I have been extremely fortunate to be able to take my own brand of diabetes by the throat and throttle it into a decent place. Every day I thank my lucky stars for that bit of good fortune. [/QUOTE]
