[QUOTE="sixfoot, post: 43905, member: 7385"] Jim almost a year ago when i was 19st 12lbs my GP wanted to put me on Insulin. True i dont have your other problems but i said i dont thinks so and there must be another way to go. i was offered Byetta which has the added bonus of helping with weight loss and also i discoverd the Carb restriction approach. You appear to have already made some of the important choices with your reading material, the other is that you will need a certain amount of will power until you start to see the benefits as due to their nature carbs can be addictive. How far you go will only be determined by testing as you will have read on here. It is difficult to avoid carbs completely even in some green veg but by avoiding the Rice Potatoes Bread Pasta Groups you will reduce your intake considerably. I would recomend reading postings by Fergus as they seem to have made it an art form At the moment on this regim i am now down to 17st 7 and looking to dump another 1.5st . Good luck to you with your efforts Dave P [/QUOTE]
