[QUOTE="Grateful, post: 1616362, member: 438800"] Your fear is understandable. Being diagnosed with diabetes can be scary. It sounds like you have been trying to adapt to the disease for the past two years. I can only speak from my experience. I was not "afraid" of the low-carb diet but I was, I must admit, very "skeptical" about whether it would "work." For the first two months on the diet, I was extremely anxious and worried that the doctor would have to put me on drugs. But then, when they tested me again after those two months I had made a huge reduction in my HbA1c. Can you explain why you are afraid of the low-carb option? Is it because your friends or family think it is a bad idea? If so, this is not unusual, especially if your local culture and cuisine make abundant use of carbohydrate foods. [/QUOTE]
