[QUOTE="Resurgam, post: 1965508, member: 355878"] I am a long time low carber - I started back in the 1970s, so it is a pity that health care professionals are so out of date. I have, over the years, been forced onto high carb diets because they are so healthy - they healthied me into being very overweight and a full on diabetic, type two. When diagnosed I abandoned the cholesterol lowering diet and ordered a whole hogget (large lamb) on the way home. The concept is simple. Stop eating high carb foods - which are converted into glucose in the blood, moderate the amounts of sugar and starch consumed, and use a meter to check that you are not overdoing what you do eat. The usual foods to avoid are anything made from grains, potatoes and other root vegetables, and fruits other than berries. I eat stir fries, stews and salads along with meat, fish, shellfish, eggs and cheese and my favourite dessert is sugar free jelly with frozen berries and cream. [/QUOTE]
