[QUOTE="KK123, post: 2157896, member: 451727"] I am (generally) an advocate of low carbing BUT please remember that if you are newly diagnosed and when there is still doubt about which type, then low carbing now MAY skew any further tests your Dr may do or recommend etc. Low carbing will most likely lower your glucose levels in the short term but when you go back to the Dr, they will say 'Oh you're levels are fine' and may leave it as that, ie commensurate with their 'type 2 ' diagnosis. I was told on diagnosis to eat 'normally' in order that they could then see what effect food & medication was having on me, this helped them to come to a diagnosis by having me tested for all sorts. 3 months later the results of those tests came back and I was type 1. I feel that had I gone very low carb at the start I would have been misdiagnosed and spent who knows how long getter more and more ill. x [/QUOTE]
