But where a problem can arise is if they then decide to reinvent the standard low carb diet to fit their choices
I quite agree. Which is why I try to include a mention of self testing and using meters, as these are the most important tools we have to make our dietary choices related to controlling our diabetes.Equally, we shouldn't be encouraging them to eat bread or whatever .... and this can be implied by saying we eat them without qualifying that our meters tell us we can eat certain portion sizes.
Why should Vegimite need a emoji like that. Vegimite is a great spread with excellent taste and not only that it can be used as a Drop Bear repellent, which Marmite and other spreads ending in mite can not be used as they do not work.There really should be an EWWWWW emoji
I eat sandwiches. I eat 2 slices of bread a day. I do wish people would stop this "You cant eat any starches, you are not a low carber if you do" nonsense.
Low carb is under 120g a day. Its up to the individual, their general health, their own meter readings and how low they wish to go.
Why are you eating sandwiches? You are labelled as a diet only T2 on your profile. Or is it low carb bread?
I dont do keto. I can maintain my blood sugar level on around 100g of carbs a day, and that amount also helps keep my other health issues stable.Are you sure? Maybe it's not keto?

This is partly why self testing is so vital. it gives us the information we need to find our own safe carb levels and make informed decisions.
If you choose to do keto then that is fine and your choice.OK but keto may have longevity and other benefits, so lower carb may be better.

I have other health issues to consider, and going under 100g of carbs is not possible for my all round health. Sometimes we just have to steer the path we can manage, even if its not ideal for our personal diabetic control. Although, saying that, my control has been good for over 6 years now.
I repeat, I have other health issues to consider. And no, I am not going to share them with you.If I may, what prevents you from lowering your carbs? Afaik, carbs are useless to the human body and there is no issue if you consume none, maybe there is benefit in fact.
