Message: <blockquote data-quote="Romola" data-source="post: 95289" data-attributes="member: 16967">T2 Diet only.  I follow a low glycemic load diet in order to try to keep bg levels steady.All readings so far (one exception) have been lower than NHS guidelines.I eat carbs at most meals in order to sustain a healthy diet - but restrict the amount I have at a time.  I think there are probably many others who do much the same.I would also add that this has been very easy, as I get to eat lots of really nice things.  I know this is over-simplifying it, but I see it as swapping children's treats for grown up ones, eg we have spent more on good wine and  luxury food etc in place of cakes and sweets etcBoth I and my non-diabetic husband have lost weight and feel generally healthier all round - so no real temptation to go back to old ways.I do have the odd pud if eating out though - as a treat.</blockquote>
