[QUOTE="lucylocket61, post: 1859495, member: 41885"] I am not saying that weight loss, of itself, cannot help type 2 diabetes. I m saying that, for some of us, changing our diet is enough to help our diabetes, without significant weight loss. For some, with their recent diagnosis and borderline type 2 , a reduction in all foods is enough. I recommend, with the most respect, that you look past your black and white thinking, and look at the nuances and words people are using in their replies to you. The use of the words 'some' and 'perhaps' are good indicators that there is no blanket treatment. Many of us didnt have the luxury of a diagnosis while still just over the borderline, or pre-diabetic. Speaking personally, even reducing my calories significantly didnt help my diabetes enough, nor did it help my weight. Changing the proportions of food types made a HUGE difference, while keeping the same reduced calorie level. I am not alone in this. This is why diet is the wrong word. Its not only the calories, for many of us, its the foods those calories are in which make the difference. [/QUOTE]
