[QUOTE="Kristin251, post: 1156298, member: 240838"] Mars, Thanks for the dietary advice but I will pass on it. Of course I have had a GAD and it was over 250. I also had a c peptide which showed I produce very little insulin. I have eaten 20 carbs or less per day for over 20 years. I am a great weight, skin glows, blood sugar between 75-100 95% of the times, lots of energy and great CHO as well as other blood work. I'll stick with what I am doing. LADA can be brought on by many things that don't include food. I believe mine is genetic and accelerated after a very nasty virus. I assure you I did not eat my way here but I'm sure I would be much worse if I ate loads of carbs for the last 20 years. Eating carbs is moot point for me anyway. I don't digest them. I also think you need to update your advice. It is very out dated. I don't think I know a single person who's blood sugars didn't come down with low carb eating. Some just choose to take meds so they can eat what they want. Some choose to eat so they don't have to take meds. Neither is right or wrong however if a person has high blood sugars and eats carbs and bloods continue to rise, diabetes will certainly progress. Thanks again for your advice but I too have done my research and I know what I'm doing. My meter agrees. [/QUOTE]
