This video comes out of another myth that gets propagated out by Atkins Diet bashers that somehow we are more likely to get diabetes by following low carb. Certainly there is no shortage of misinformation on the web:

Some say we are dangerous for both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetics. Some just type 1 diabetics, but it really couldn’t be further from the truth. As all people, ESPECIALLY diabetics, could benefit from controlling blood glucose levels by carbohydrate monitoring or restriction.
There are two major proponents for Low Carb for diabetics:

Mary Ross Vernon has been controlling diabetes with an Very Low Carb Diet (similar to Atkins Diet) for many years. She says both her Type 1 and Type 2 patients have benefited from carbohydrate restriction. She also notes that seeking quality physicians to handle the dramatic decrease in insulin requirements is paramount as some patients could be medication free in 3 days! See the attached quote (http://rjr10036.typepad.com/askdrvernon/2007/05/ron_of_sarasota.html).
Recently a number of studies have been released to support this position as well. One of the most notable for describing the failure of the existing recommendation of high carb and regulating with increasing doses of insulin is the study released in 2005 Nutrition and Metabolism magazine, “The case for low carbohydrate diets in diabetes management.” (http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/articlerender.fcgi?artid=1188071&tool=pmcentrez) They detail that the high carbohydrate diet has lead to worse glycemic control, dislipidemia, hypertension, obesity, and cardiovascular disease (CVD). They noted in their review of studies that the low carb followers showed dramatic improvement in comparison to the high carb followers.

I have Type II Diabetes and need to lose about 50-75 lbs. I am also trying to get pregnant in the next few months. I am struggling with finding the motivation to lose weight although I feel as if I’m desperate to. I wanted to try one of the food delivery diets. Any tips on which one is the best? Anyone heard of www.diettogo.com?
Hi……….I am also type II, was diagnosed a year ago, and told to lose 40 – 50 pounds. I’ve lost 25, so I am getting there!
Have you been for diabetic counselling? Not sure where you live, but the nurses in the diabetes center in my area were very helpful in educating me as to what to do in terms of diet.
Basically I was told to eat 5 times a day, 45 carbohydrates in Breakfast, Lunch and Supper. and two snacks with 15 carbohydrates (one snack before bed).
Personally, especially if you are hoping to get pregnant, I would stay away from any food delivery diet. You really don’t know what is in them. As a diabetic, you have to avoid the sugars and refined carbohydrates in most process foods. Almost all ‘low fat’ prepared foods, have added sugars and
carbohydrates in them to make them more tasty. So be very careful.
Personally, I follow what I was told by the diabetes clinic. Switch to whole grain breads, low fat proteins, lots of veggies,
and limited fruits. Splenda, both white and brown, is excellent to give that sweet taste.
I have also found low sugar products, like jams, jellies, etc.
that are helpful as well.
Good Luck!
Visit my diabetes info page (linked under my profile) for more specifics, but Laura pretty much hit the nail on the head. What you want to do is eliminate or severely limit your intake of refined foods. Stick to what Mother Nature created for us. Or, if you prefer, the foods we evolved from. As you replace your refined carbs with natural ones from raw fruits and vegetables, you’ll find (in amazement) that your blood sugars will come down despite your calorie intake remaining the same or even increasing. I’m taking in over 600 calories a day of SUGAR. That’s right… sugar. The difference is, it’s fructose (natural sugar), not sucrose (table sugar). I also will not go near high fructose corn syrup… that’s a misleading name for pretty much the same crap as table sugar. I don’t have time or the space to explain it, it just works. Supplement that with at least an hour a day of walking, jogging, or biking and watch as your weight plummets, your need for medication plummets, your energy level soars, and your life if fun again. I just got back from a 5 mile hike in the hills with my son. For the first time in years, I didn’t have to stop and huff and puff. I’m 56 and was heading downhill fast just three years ago. Sugar was going up, energy was going down, I was depressed, the need for more medication was looming, and life sucked. Then I jumped on the health bandwagon and started learning as much as I could about diet and fitness. I’ve never looked back. Dec. 13th, I stopped the Metformin. My sugar has been stable averaging 90 mg/dl (5.0 mmol/l) for the past three weeks. That includes fasting and post prandial. See my results here: http://www.geocities.com/seabulls69/DailyLog.html

A new study in the October 1 issue of The New England Journal of Medicine reports that controlling gestational diabetes, a condition that affects a growing number of women in the U.S. each year, may be easier and more important than first thought. Moms-to-be who develop gestational diabetes tend to have larger babies and more complicated deliveries. Their newborns are also at risk for long-term complications such as obesity and type 2 diabetes, says Mark Landon, MD, of Ohio State University Medical Center, who led the study.

Researches that are overlooked or ignored by the mainstream medicine, show diabetes mellitus is preventable and manageable, if we learn how it is developed and take preventive measures. This is one of the 135 articles included in my book, “Carbohydrates Can Kill.”

Hi, my name is Tom. 
I was recently diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes and can't help feeling cheated, frustrated and downright angry. This little book showed me that there are plenty of other Type 2s that suffer emotionally as well as physically with the disease. In interviews with over 100 people, I find myself again and again. Thanks for the experiences, strengths and hopes people shared with the author !
exploited by doctors and drug companies while you suffer from this entirely curable condition, then this is the book you may need to read... 
My Grandma was a great believer in natural remedies. Despite all of her challenges in life she always cared for her body ... People asked "What's your Secret Ann?" Well she always said "My relationship with our beautiful Nature" and then she smiled.
