[QUOTE="Resurgam, post: 2338120, member: 355878"] I have needed to eat low carb all my life to feel well - but the consensus has always been that I should eat less, less fat, less protein and more carbs because I weighed too much - well I was very active and muscular. In my days as a roadie I could dead lift a dead drunk rhythm guitarist no problem, but when the ideal was Twiggy I had no chance of being thought normal. Where I am now is probably the best case after a lifetime of trying to eat what is proper for me but getting the wrong advice and encouragement for decades - I am going to be 70 next spring. Having been pushed well into the type 2 range I think I am lucky to have got back to where I am now, so have no plans to eat a higher carb diet as my 'normal' and to have higher carb foods only rarely, and then not much of them. At Christmas I will be having Christmas pudding, but with 'real' custard, and the Yorkshire puddings will be a lower carb option than standard. I actually feel that I have the best option. [/QUOTE]
