[QUOTE="bulkbiker, post: 1232343, member: 219467"] I think you are missing an "in my opinion" there. But anyway.. I would say that as the NHS dietary regime is "in my opinion" **** then I am glad plenty of people (a lot of them here) fail to follow it. The Eatwell plate has been advocated by the NHS for ages as the Type 2 epidemic gets worse. I would also take you to task a bit about the glycemic index part of your statement but as I am an Extreme Low Carb High Fat advocate I have never bothered to try it as I have found a way of eating that works very well for me. Also a quick note on statistics if 30% of all obese people have Type 2 then that is far from a majority also if 85% of Type 2 diabetics are also overweight then you cannot draw any conclusions as 70% of the obese do not have Type 2 and 15% of Type 2's aren't overweight. So I'm afraid it is very possible to talk about Type 2 without addressing obesity. I realise this may not sound like a nice reply but I'm afraid you have struck a nerve with me and I fear plenty of my fellow Type 2's who use this site to give support and help rather than be judgemental.
