[QUOTE="Resurgam, post: 2331532, member: 355878"] I discovered low carb in my early 20s having unknowingly eaten low carb at home. All you need to do, if you are a plain ordinary type two, is cut down carbs to the level you can cope with. Job done, no more problems as long as you don't let anyone talk you out of that way of eating. Luckily more and more people are beginning to accept that low fat is a bad idea. Before the virus struck I had gone back to work, and was actively involved in teaching morris and maypole dancing, playing music for longsword, morris both border and cotswold, and jigs - and I am 70 next spring. I recommend getting a blood glucose meter, so you can test to see how high you go after eating. I use a Spirit Healthcare Tee2 - apparently if you phone up and ask about putting in a fairly large order for the strips you can get a fee meter. As type 2s we don't pay VAT on the testing kit.
