[QUOTE="aimee11, post: 676073, member: 136952"] I have been a total social killjoy all my life. Never drank alcohol never smoked never took drugs unless prescribed never ate sugary foods never ate snack foods never had salad dressings or sauces never had desserts Literally had some boiled fish or boiled chicken with some boiled non starchy veggies or a raw salad and maybe boiled egg for breakfast with nothing else just water to drink and went without lunch and went for a walk at lunch time instead of eating. Then did two hours of dancing in the evening instead of watching TV I did everything correctly and had no bad habits whatsoever all my life And yet I am fat and diabetes type 2 I feel let down like you would not believe Maybe I should have lived it up and drank and partied all my life then maybe I would feel I deserve to be diagnosed with diabetes type 2 So really I am suggesting that growing fat is a symptom of the disease and not a cause. As the pancreas and liver metabolise food differently than normal, people with undiagnosed diabetes find that eating a healthy diet is still converted to excess body fat. Once diagnosed, diabetics have to try so much harder for their food intake to not be processed the wrong way by their pancreas and liver than someone with a normal pancreas a d liver. So in my case eating and exercising properly all my life did not lead to a good result at all. I cannot be the only one. [/QUOTE]
