[QUOTE="Captain Crunch, post: 2214822, member: 517474"] My GP has apparently put my name forward for a DESMOND course. This wasn't offered though. I had to request it after learning of its existence through my own research. Reading some of the earlier responses here, it would appear that some GPs aren't really that clued up on the dietary requirements for T2 patients. The only professional advice I've had is to cut out sugar and reduce my bread intake. There was no mention of carbs at all. Probably in common with a lot of newly-diagnosed T2s, I originally thought that sugar was the only thing to avoid. It's only through informative sites like this one that I discovered that carbs are the bigger enemy in that they're in virtually all foods. [/QUOTE]
