I'm newly diagnosed myself, a healthcare professional and very much brainwashed to low calorie, low fat mentality after all the health education and weight loss attempts. But physiologically low carbing makes perfect sense but goes against all advice around. But like said, read Bernstein and atkins books and it will be like an epiphany. I'm still struggling with having double cream, cheeses and butter in my fridge... But I don't get hungry like I used to and am satisfied after meals and losing weight rather nicely.I think I'm quite lucky with my practice nurse and gp, they are both advising to reduce carbs but also advise low fat too and I was told to learn to smile and nod. Then carry on doing what I'm doing. To me there is enough evidence here in members' blood results for me to give all this a good go! Just remember, sooner you get your sugars down, sooner the complications can be halted or even improved. Look at peoples signatures and that's the best advice and evidence that low carb and high fat diet actually reduces cholesterol and triglycerides so no clogged arteries! As long as you eat vegetables of all sorts of colour with your meats, cheeses, and sauces you will feel so much better!!Good luck and keep fighting! I am determined to prove all the predictions wrong, many people here have helped me to see the sense.</blockquote>
