I am not pre judging anyone, but....
.I went on an NHS funded self management course, I waited 4 months to get on it. We were sent a letter to remind us a few days before and to contact the admin if you couldn't make it so that someone else could get the opportunity. there were 12 people invited 6 men 6 women. On the day two women failed to turn up! It was an excellent course with professional dieticians and doctor there. After lunch another two dropped out 1 woman 1 man with comments such as "I don't like vegetables" "I've tried to stop smoking" "I can't do exercise" "my tablets don't work" "I love a fried breakfast" by the afternoon tea break another (woman) left. The course finished with 7 people 5 men and 2 women. The complications to your health with diabetes caused by ignorance, and head in the sand scenario is frightening. I am lucky I seem to be managing ok, thanks to the advice I've taken.
