That's outstanding. I wonder if her doctor recommended that or she found out herself? A lot more doctors need to get educated ... or at least less indoctrinated by the drug companies.

I've lost 30lbs myself in the last year being on a low carb high fat diet [with no exercise whatever]. It's miraculous. Diabetes and alzheimers run in my family, so I'm fairly certain I'll never eat bread/pasta/chips again.

It's just something she decided to do. Her doctor was more than happy to just keep pumping her full of insulin. But as it turns out, diabetics can be successful avoiding carbohydrates the same way lactose intolerants are successful avoiding dairy and people with peanut allergies are successful avoiding peanuts. It just makes sense, really.
