Default Re: Recently diagnosed type 2

hiya I have recently (last week) been diagnosed as a diabetic type 2 .I was wanting to start the atkins but when I spoke to my nurse she told me that I had high cholestral also and that it was not advisable for me to start a low carb diet because it would put up my cholestral further and put me at risk of a heart attack. she has not put me on any medication for diabetes as she has given me a month to lose weight. my blood pressure is normal. she told me start exercise and start a low fat low sugar plan.any advise guys should i do the atkins and surprise her with the results?
