[QUOTE="busydiabeticmum, post: 1220000, member: 160151"] But that is just it... you are not cured... you just changed the eating habbits to CONTROL. Whether you go back to old eating habbits or not it is still there waiting for you to slip up. I tested my daughter who is on a very "healthy diet" according to nhs. Her bgl are pre diabetic, i have already reduced her carbs and changed the diet and her bgl have improved immediately (she is 12 and NOT on the same diet as me in extremely low carb) it must have taken us years to get to this point... she is how i was at that age and knowing now the symptoms i can see i had them back then and saw it in her. She easily eats more than the 5 a day of fruit and veg but some fruit is bad and just sugar. If she stay on the diet i put her on (changed to berries and lower gi carbs) she will hopefully never develop diabetes... but if not she may well end up like me. I had hoped i would be cured by now. But have realised this is for life. I have lost 20kg in less than 4 months, 20cm from my waist, my bmi is now no longer obese and only need to lose another few kg to become "normal" my bgl are good and non diabetic... BUT if i slip up it is there eaiting to pounce, if i leave the diet it will return with a vengeance. So not it is NOT reversed, it is not cured, IT IS under control... for now. [/QUOTE]
