[QUOTE="Weens12, post: 494767, member: 47205"] I'm not sure about your source being the Daily Mail, but would agree that fat has been demonised. It still doesn't make me want to eat more than moderate amounts of it... saturated or polyunsaturated. I hardly eat any processed foods - but then I didn't eat a lot of processed foods before my T2 diagnosis. This is not an exhaustive list, but I prefer to eat fish;meat; eggs; cheese - the best quality I'm able to afford, and yoghurt which I make myself - so there's not hidden extras. This coupled with mountains of vegetables,the odd spoonful of basmati, quinoa, beans, 1 or 2 new potatoes. and small quantities of fruit (berries mostly) I don't have a sweet tooth, but do occasionally succumb to a packet of crisps (balanced out with a glass of wine - which usually is why I'm having the crisps lol!) I can't think of any meal where I would include lard - perhaps that's just the way I cook? So, I think that I eat mostly what one would eat following a LCHF diet, but with lower amounts of fat as I don't see the need for it. But I appreciate that others are different. [/QUOTE]
