It wasn't a non sequitor. Even if someone has the motivation to try low carb I do not assume it will work for them. You seem to be insisting that everyone who tries it will find it works.

From: guys on 19 Jul 2008 19:42 Why does this type of post always degenerate to an argument of personal views?. I do eat a lo carb, lo fat, lo protien diet. Does anyone consider what leaves the stomach when the acid does it's job.

The one time I did manage to lose about 30 pounds and keep it off for a couple of years, my diet was based only on foods that I liked. But it was also nutritionally sound. I did research before I ate. <snip>

All I see is many book sellers making money with plausible blurbs. Each diabetic needs to settle down and look at their case. Then experiment (try) to find what works for them. I am not you and my needs are probably different. I use other people to sort out my needs. I have not been in a restaurant in about 15 years. Why tease my self. I never went to girlie clubs. I led a full life until this affliction hit me. I am still a disciplined old fart. It has worked for me.
