[QUOTE="Alexandra100, post: 1586714, member: 429870"] I have found, to my disadvantage as I have a tendency to constipation, that reducing carbs automatically reduces fibre. My GP was worse than your GP!!! Like you, I saw one I had never seen before, who brushed my concerns aside, telling me that most of his patients have high blood sugar. (So that's all right, then!) Knowing that GPs usually worry about unexplained weight loss, I played the card of mentioning my BMI of 16.5, and that I am slowly but steadily still losing weight. He advised me to exercise LESS, in order to improve the ratio of calories in to calories out. I think this may qualify as the worst diabetic advice from a GP yet. Fortunately, as for you, the practice nurse is much more clued up. [/QUOTE]
