Message: <blockquote data-quote="Royjk" data-source="post: 2743716" data-attributes="member: 594724">Just before Christmas I started on the next part of my advetures with type 2 diabetes.So, I have just spent the past four weeks getting my mind around a low carb diet, to help lower my HBA1c and it has shifted from 103 down to 76 mmol/l which I am quite pleased with. I have good morning finger blood test results due to the insulin injections, and I feel that for the first time I am getting the hang of all this stuff. I read the diabetic code book by Jason Fung so I know my periferal neuropathy will never go away, and other symptoms are also here to stay, but thats ok, thats life we cannot always have what we want.Now I have a new challenge because dealing with the carbs, and already having a low fat diet, coincidentally increased my protein input. I found more meat, fish, eggs and nuts on the plate. I really now need to be on a very low protein diet as well, and I dont yet know how that works if I  remove all the foods I eat to avoid carbs I have nothing left on my plate. It seems that I may need to do more carbs to balance out the reduction in protein. Any advice gratefully recieved.Royjk</blockquote>
