[QUOTE="Walking Girl, post: 2092829, member: 510059"] His plan is pretty much the one I follow. I don’t know if I would call him low carb exactly. He more or less says exact macronutrient targets aren’t really important, meaning he’s not a low fat advocate. He advocates mainly legumes (and lots of them) and soy for protein, no added oils, lots of vegetables - particularly non-starchy ones. Plenty of leafy greens. Limited grains and make them whole grains only, preferably low GI ones. Add nuts, seeds, olives, avocados. Limit saturated fats, but poly and mono are fine. He says 85-90% plant based, but some (limited) dairy and eggs are fine. And limited meat, but I am vegetarian so obviously don’t do that. I like eating this way, I think that’s very important to whatever plan you choose. I’ll be posting my background in an intro thread soon, but in brief, I’ve been eating this way for about 18 months, since my diagnosis as a T2 and my A1c has gone from 11.8% (105 I think?) to 4.9% ( just under 30) [/QUOTE]
