On Saturday evening, I was talking to a friend who has recently been diagnosed as prediabetic after a routine blood test. Message to her and to another 2 friends in the same situation was nothing to worry about, just come back in a year to be retested. I started to explain that it might be a good idea to cut back on carbohydrate and explained that I have eaten very little for the last 2 1/2 years. The usual question of what I eat followed and I explained that I eat a lot more fat. She said 'surely fat is carbohydrate isn't it?' I was literally speechless!
