[QUOTE="JoKalsbeek, post: 2061620, member: 401801"] Darn, they're really putting you through the wringer eh.... They're holding fast to old NHS guidelines; they changed this year though, to include LCHF... Ah well. You have a meter. Test your little heart out and figure out what works for you. If you can't trust strangers on a forum, who can you trust? ;) No, but seriously, trust your meter and what it tells you. Go from there. We're not a one-size-fits-all, everyone has different levels of insulin production, resistance, sensitivity, and wahey, the liverdumps... Learn what your body responds well to. It's as good a place to start as any. I've frustrated many a specialist, but on their advice I'd be on insulin, unable to walk and thrush-covered by now. My HbA1c is 33 and I'm physically fitter than I have been in well over a decade or more. I'll march to the beat of my own drummer, thanks. Besides, where do they get off telling you off like you're a disobedient child? It's your health, your body. Again: do what feels right for you. If you want to follow their advice, do, but just be sure to test and see whether it's working for you. If it's not, try something else and test that. I know I'll never go back to carbs myself. But that's me. Good luck man. Jo [/QUOTE]
