    This guy has diabetes and has eaten pizza daily for 25 years. Umm...

    No wonder he has diabetes.
    And it's not even GOOD pizza. :/

    Exactly!!! I would expect someone who was obsessed with pizza and considered himself the "Pizza King" to enjoy quality gourmet pizza! Not frozen pizza, pizza bagels and dominos! That's just crazy. I bet he came from a household where hot dogs and macaroni and cheese constituted a homemade meal.

    As a low carber for years, whenever I cheated (back in my LCLF days) I always made sure it was the absolute best pizza money could buy. I was not going to waste carbs on nasty pizza.

    I'm the only one in my house following a LCHF diet and being lazy over the weekend, made my family pancakes for dinner two nights in a row. It was a treat for them. And each person ate no more than 3 pancakes, and even then it made me gag a little bit knowing how much sugar and carbs they were consuming in one sitting, so I made them eat bacon and sausage too LOL I might be able to eat 2lbs of butter in one sitting, but that's a big fat no to the rest of that.
