[QUOTE="tim2000s, post: 1250792, member: 30007"] Okay, I'm going to be blunt here. Whether it's home made or not, Garlic Bread, Pizza and Jelly, whether home made or not, for a Type 2 [B]is not eating well[/B]. That is a terrible menu and Diabetes UK should know better. The main symptom that T2 has is insulin resistance. What this means is that every time you eat carbohydrate (Starches ,as in flour, bread and pizza and sugars) your body doesn't respond to the insulin that you produce or inject and you need to produce or inject more to get any kind of result. If you don't, the breakdown of the food results in an increase in glucose in the blood, which your body can't use. The excess insulin also causes the body to store fat. Whether you like it or not, unfortunately, it's not insulin that's going to fix you from here. You need to give your body a chance to recover insulin sensitivity and the only way to do this is to cut Carbohydrates, and not Fat from your diet. You may not ever be able to come off insulin. That depends on the condition of your beta cells, but you'll be able to reduce it substantially and get better results if you can reduce your insulin resistance. [/QUOTE]
