[QUOTE="ianf0ster, post: 2107865, member: 506169"] You are obviously new, or have not spent much time in this forum. Many members (at least hundreds and probably thousands) here have proved over several years that all the accepted dietary advice for both Obesity and Type 2 Diabetes is completely wrong and is almost guaranteed to make things worse! You need to drastically cut down on Carbs. It males no difference if they are Low GI and Whole grain - they are still converted to glucose in your blood! To a T2 Diabetic they are a mild poison. - So no Breakfast cereals, not even porridge, no toast or bread, fruit juice. No potatoes (sweet or otherwise). no pasta (with possible exception for re-heated pasta), no pizza. For some there is also no milk (but cream is fine), again some can't tolerate any root vegetables. So what can you definitely eat? - Meat, the fattier the better, same with fish, butter, cream, cheese, eggs, leafy veg, cauliflower, broccoli, avocado. In moderation you may be able eat the following (check with the meter): beans, peas, tomatoes, berries and some other fruit - but not bananas and other high sugar fruits. Eat to your meter, we are all slightly different because of genetics and out gut bacteria. Calories In - does not equal Calories Out - it depends upon how they are processed by your individual digestive system. Generally on a Low Carb High Fat (LCHF) and Protein diet most people lose weight and reduce Blood Sugars while eating the same (or even more) Calories. Even without additional exercise. Though obviously for most, a moderate calorie reduction and moderate exercise is a good idea! Another way to reduce weight and blood sugars id to restrict eating to just an 8hr or a 6hr period each day. This is called 'Intermittent Fasting' (IF) and also works. Personally I use LCHF (count the Carbs - not the Calories) with occasional IF. [/QUOTE]
