[QUOTE="graham64, post: 122823, member: 10150"] Hi Carol, I'm another skinny T2 you right in saying that we don't get as much help (try ringing DUK they are clueless) as those trying to lose weight, although we are in the minority we still total an estimated 15 to 20% of T2s thats as many if not more than the total of T1s. I'm in the same age group as you, and like you was encouraged to follow a high fat diet by my dietitian. The problem is getting the balance right, eating more carbs will help with gaining weight but only at the expense of higher blood sugar levels. I have found low carb bread and cakes can be high in calories and help with weight gain with little or no effect on blood sugar levels, just google low carb flaxseed bread and almond flour cake recipes. Regards Graham Edited almond flower :lol: must be the high calorie Merlot [/QUOTE]
