Diabetes Mine: The ADA vs. Dr. Bernstein

I'm commenting on a Diabetes Mine post.

Shame on you Amy -- a lot of people would call that trolling. I do want you to realize I think it is funny.

I've done Atkins and I've done Bernstein. My food service here in Dallas will do protein only and low carb meals if I want, but they get boring fast. I compromise and do about half the carbs that the ADA recommends.

Both my sister and a good friend at work have lost quite a bit of weight, are healthier, etc. since they have done Atkins.

I will say, though, that as long as you are on shots, you won't get as good as control as you would with the pump.
