[QUOTE="TeddyTottie, post: 2257690, member: 519030"] LOL absolutely no secret at all! I find the whole historical diet misinformation thing so fascinating that I have become the diabetes bore at work. To some effect, actually - a couple of colleagues have taken my experience on board and started to make some changes to their diets too. I don’t see it as anything to be ashamed of, any more than being coeliac or having any other intolerance. OK I will own the fact that my diet was awful and I ate a lot of junk and sugar, but so does almost everyone else. Fact is, if you do not have the genetic precursors to diabetes you won’t get it no matter what you eat, and if you do, then the insulin resistance itself drives weight gain and carb addiction. Bottom line is, most people are not really that bothered about someone else’s health issues anyway. And I learnt long ago not to care about opinions or judgements from people I don’t care about!
