[QUOTE="viviennem, post: 390465, member: 31282"] That's really good news, goodnews123! Well done! You'll find that the NHS is slowly becoming more open-minded about one diet type [i]not[/i] fitting all! Very many HCPs still seem to think that Atkins consists only of fatty meat, butter, cheese and cream in unlimited quantities - and know nothing about the amount of vegetables that are included. Nor about the amount of exercise he recommends (see the book). I am beginning to think that I am one of a human "type" that can't manage too many carbohydrates. If I do over-indulge (which for me is about 150g carb in a day) I get spots, and the most awful wind! :shock: :oops: I'm much better on minimum carbs. With any luck, one day the NHS will come round to accepting that different diets suit different people. Until then, all we can do is keep banging on about it. I'm not saying that Atkins suits everyone, but I do think that all Type 2s at least should give it a try for a few weeks, just to see. Viv 8) [/QUOTE]
