[QUOTE="xyzzy, post: 324171, member: 40343"] My calorie intake is roughly 1900 to 2000 a day on my low carb high fat diet. Doesn't sound excessive does it? As Lucy says rather than believe what an American journalist says why not go research the subject properly. All I do is substitute starchy carbs for loads of green veg, eggs, cheese, full fat yoghurt and other fresh produce. I avoid dangerous trans fats and eat a bit more extra meat and fish than I did. If I work out where my calories come from then its around 15% carbs, 20% protein and 65% fat. If you think that T2 is preventable then again go research the subject properly. I get the feeling the next thing you'll tell me is that its all to do with "the food in my mouth" and that I am fat and lazy and need to exercise more when in reality I have a BMI of 23 and do a reasonable amount of exercise. Stereotyping people isn't a nice thing is it? Go read about the LookAhead Trial. It just spent $200 million over 11 years to prove that your supposed healthy diet and exercise regime makes no difference what so ever to the incidence of heart disease. Everyone's a bit embarrassed about that.
