[QUOTE="Chook, post: 1077459, member: 24561"] My DSN was delighted when I lost weight and lowered my BG. She looked at the notebook I use to record my monitor test results and marvelled at how they had come down from 30+ to the 5s. She asked me the sort of things that I eat - typical day's menu - and she said she thought it sounded and I obviously am thriving on it. She told me she wished all her patients would be so interested in helping themselves. That, as she is herself, in the pre-diabetic range she will lower her carb intake. TWO DAYS LATER she told a newly diagnosed co-worker of mine that the ONLY diet suitable for diabetics is one with plenty of low GI carbs. There is no point in trying to change the way either DSNs or GPs advise us, it's further up the hierarchy that need to be educated. [/QUOTE]
