[QUOTE="AlisonKC, post: 1744083, member: 468202"] I have received an invitation to attend 2, 3hr sessions of a 'Diabetes Patient Education Programme' by Warrington & Halton NHS Trust, held on Friday mornings. I was diagnosed with T2D in January with a HBAlC of 58 and straightaway prescribed 500mg Metformin and a statin. I was quickly referred to the foot clinic and for an eye check-up, which both rated as 'low risk'. I have been following the LCHF diet now for the past 2 1/2 months, I've just been re-tested and levels have dropped to HBA1C of 45 and am now 1 stone lighter with greatly reduced cholesterol . I am a bit dubious about attending this training as it involves taking time off work (I am freelance and won't get paid for 6 hours work). I don't want to find LCHF being rejected and wasting my time having the standard diet information thrust at me because I already know through testing that bread and other high GI carb foods really spike my levels. Is there much point in going? [/QUOTE]
