Just been for my second diabetic check up and when the nurse asked me if I'd changed my diet I told her I was following a lchf diet. She became quite snippy and told me that would make me poorly and it wasn't advisable. I told her I was feeling very well, sleeping better and losing weight. She told me I needed to have some starchy carbs at each meal or my energy levels would drop drastically and that the fat would put me at even more risk of heart attacks. I told her I actually seemed to have more energy and that isn't it proven that animal fats are deemed good for your health now. She said not in my case as diabetics were at higher risk of heart disease so it wasn't advisable. Then she asked if I was agreeable to taking metformin. I refused so she's giving me three months and if my blood test shows a drop in levels I can continue with diet control. So now I'm a little worried that my levels may rise and I'll have to go on meds.
