Relationship to Diabetes
Type 2
Hi my name is Linda and I'm new here. I am a nurse and also a type 2 diabetic. I am at the moment on a low carb diet and walk 5 miles 5 days a week in an effort to lose weight. I also have arthritis so it's taken time to build up to this. Looking forward to getting tips and new ideas to stop my diet getting too boring. I have list 5kg this month so very pleased
 
Many eating low carb find that their diet is far more various than when eating the bland carby stodge.
I used to have two shopping lists which I used alternately - even these days I rarely buy mushrooms and tomatoes on the same trip to the shops.
 
Welcome to the forum Linda from a fellow T2.
