Message: <blockquote data-quote="Deleted member 388305" data-source="post: 2636116">If that is what I said, it is definitely not what I meant to say.  I was able to keep my A1c between 6 and 7% while I did low-carb for 20 years.  I was never able to get it below 5.7%.  I was never able to get my cholesterol numbers where I wanted them.  My blood pressure never improved (I’ve been on blood pressure medicine longer than I’ve had diabetes).  We will have to agree to disagree, as you suggested.  My long time endocrinologist is thrilled with my results.Also, regarding this: "One point I did learn on this brief Google search and that is noteworthy is that most of these articles talk of WFPB being high in unsaturated fats, which is very different from your original summary of your diet being "low fat". WFPB actually seems to be higher carb, higher fat, and lower protein in its truest form, based on what I've read."It is possible to eat a WFPB diet that is high in fat.  That is not this diet, which is why I added “low fat” to my description of the diet. the low fat aspect is critical to the success of the diet. Here is breakdown of what I ate yesterday and what the foods were, if anyone is interested. Fat was only 10% of the diet.[ATTACH=full]62869[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]62870[/ATTACH], if anyone is interested.  Fat was only 10% of the diet.</blockquote>
