[QUOTE="sugarless sue, post: 104478, member: 1210"] If members would stop being so dogmatic about 'this' is the only way to do it then we could move on and get on with the business of controlling our diabetes whichever way we can. I'm fed up writing ,'we are all different' but that is the whole point !! I have learned a lot from this forum, it changed my life, probably why I stick with it and still think it is the best for information on the net because we cater for ALL diabetics not a narrow band like many of the others on the net. It's simple really, find which way controls your blood sugar levels and stick with it. If you don't agree with others then ignore the post unless it contains some inaccuracy which you feel you can correct stating sources as well for the correction. However, by reading all points of view we all learn a bit more about diabetes. The members on here probably know more about their diabetes and other types just from reading all the different sections and, I dare say, know more than many doctors/nurses do. There are many on here who only have to see the word,' reduce' and automatically assume that they are being told to low carb. Reducing carb intake is surely the aim of all diabetics given that diabetes is a metabolic inability to use carbohydrate correctly. The argument on how much to reduce is an ongoing one, bit like the 'Never-ending Story', eating to your meter is a sensible way to determine how well you are controlling your diabetes,some can do this with more carbs than others but the key word is always control.
