[QUOTE="JohnEGreen, post: 1077515, member: 223921"] Since I realised I was diabetic I did change my diet. After being on such high dosages of Prednisolone for such a long time my weight had ballooned to over 17 stone had the moon face and all that. What I did was less organised than what the low carbers here tend to do I cut back drastically on carbs and sugar though as I had at various times medical types telling me no your not diabetic I did have times when I kind of rebelled and said to hell with it if they say I'm OK then I'll eat what I like but I got over that and started to take carbs a lot more seriously and cut back on them again I don't particularly count carbs but do avoid very high carb foods have very little bread, potato, rice, pasta and cakes and biscuits for the most part I do not touch. Since then I have lost about 4 1/2 stone come down 3 sizes in clothes and now I have a meter I can say my blood sugar is almost back in normal levels. So generally I would say yes I am a lowish or reduced carber. Oh bye the way I did try and follow the advise on here and Eat My Meter but it was indigestible and tasted awful though I think it was low in carbs. [/QUOTE]
