[QUOTE="JoKalsbeek, post: 1883270, member: 401801"] I hope by now you've gathered you didn't give yourself T2. But just in case; you didn't. It's part circumstances, part genes. And the latter you couldn't help, so this would've happened sooner or later. As someone probably already mentioned, all carbs turn to glucose/sugar once ingested... But there's so much good stuff out there that's low in carbs! And if pasta is a big deal, get the konjak kind (may have spelled that wrong), or use a spiraliser to make courgetti. Cauliflower-rice is versatile as heck. I did catch you don't like fat, and I can't help but wonder if that goes for *all* fats...? Proper butter, full fat greek yoghurt, avocado, olives, cheese? Because you're going to want to feel full, and if the carbs aren't filling you up, something has to. So that'll be fats, or protein. And don't worry about statins...! I started low carbing and I could stop taking mine within a month. (Due to the side effects aggrivating my rheumatism, I didn't intend on taking them any longer, doc's permission or no... But she agreed. :) ) While having bacon twice a day! Go figure. And even so, recent studies say cholesterol isn't the Big Bad it's made out to be. So there's that. Check Dietdoctor.com for ideas, and info... And if you do choose to go the diet route, and head towards remission, you'll get rid of the fatigue too. Part & parcel. :) Good luck! Jo [/QUOTE]
