[QUOTE="lrw60, post: 450490, member: 64443"] Hi. I have been veggie/almost vegan, for about 30 years. I have also been overweight for a lot longer than that. I was diagnosed with t2 9 years ago and the medication went up and up over the next 7 years. Then I dieted and lost a lot of weight, still a v/v but eating less of certain foods. As I lost weight my medication was reduced. Now at over 5 stones lighter I don't need medication for diabetes, it is controled by diet alone (with some easy exercise thrown in). I do drink milk, hence the almost bit above, but I don't eat any animal fats or eggs (egg to me is a chicken in kit form, it's meat I tell you!). A recent blood test confirmed that I am still below the diabetic line and my cholesterol is below the line too. Good luck, Lee. [/QUOTE]
