[QUOTE="LJRC, post: 1052657, member: 206214"] My very first Christmas as a Type 2 back in 2014, my DN gave me this advice..."Don't deprive yourself of your Christmas food, although I cannot promise your sugar levels will go down afterwards." We have a new DN now who has told me if my sugar levels don't go down I have to go on insulin tablets. Both of these bits of 'advice', do not go down well with me. Last blood test showed that everything had gone down, blood sugar at 6.5, up a little. Now on a nice low carb diet, have lost another half a stone. Do I need insulin tablets?? I think not, I would prefer my body to make it's own, while it can, not encourage to let 'magic' pills do the work. [/QUOTE]
