I went to a dietician because I was overweight, and her regime upped the carb intake to amounts that made everything far, far worse. I didn't know I had PCOS and insulin resistance, both precursors of T2, so I followed advice that added on another 15 kilo's and poof... Diabetic at 37, though probably was years before that. Our bodies cannot cope with carbs like other people's do, and we don't find out until it is often rather late in the day. You couldn't know. So please, don't lay blame at your own feet. You didn't do this to yourself. But you *can* tackle it! (I have a load of chronic conditions, and diabetes is the only one I have a say in. Now non-diabetic levels and no complications, on diet only!). You'll be okay. It might not feel like it right now, but you will be.</p></blockquote><p></p>
