[QUOTE="TriciaWs, post: 2367927, member: 475901"] Many staff are still advising metformin and the 'eatwell plate' - the latter is a disaster for T2s as any carbs are turned into sugar. Many of us have managed our blood sugars down, or got into remission, by counting carbs in conjunction with checking our blood sugar using a meter (usually self-funded although some GPs will fund if you explain you need it to check how many carbs you can eat). There are several really good sites to help you. I went for the lowcarbprogram as some NHS trusts were offering a voucher (NHS approved prescription but funding varies by region). [/QUOTE]
