[QUOTE="Daibell, post: 2058459, member: 21149"] Hi and welcome. The diet advice you have been given is half-right. Yes, low carbs is certainly the way to go but you need both proteins and fats to keep you feeling full together with veg and non-tropical fruit. Fats are not bad and in general will not cause weight or blood sugar gain. Do ask for your cholesterol test results and don't just rely on the GP saying you need statins You need to discuss your lipids ratios and not have statins because your total cholesterol is 'too high'. Some people have real problems taking statins and some like me don't and you should not be prescribed a dose that is higher than you need. [/QUOTE]
