I personally do not advocate any diet as I believe they are nothing but short term solutions. Many cause yo-yoing in your sugar levels making them terrible to follow. Bottom line is to reduce fat intake, up vegetable and fruit, get plenty of exercise, and reduce calorie intake to match your energy output. A 20 minute walk 3 times a week will do wonders and that is all it takes. Something simple like taking the stairs instead of a lift, many changes in the way we do things can make a difference. [/B]

I agree with what you are saying but the problem is that we are told to eat low fat versions of everything. The carb content of the low fat version is much higher than the natural version. If one is insulin resistant then this cause a problem.
That is why low carbing suits me. No more processed or junk food. Back to eating the way I did in my childhood.
