One of my first symptoms. Heavy leg's and arm's, again like the rest once I got my carbs sorted out everything seems normal. One thing to be aware of is the good diet will start to sort out some of your issues and feel better, at this point you will think it's gone away and slip back to old ways.

I really enjoy it, more than the porridge. Contains a real taste sensation of sweet and sour, as well as having plenty goodness. Protein from the yogurt and nuts. The seeds and red currents for good digestive health, blackberries work nice with the currants on the sour side and strawberries and...

Skyr Icelandic Yogurt plain with a hand full of berries, nuts and seeds. Tastes great especially withe red currants. Yes I love the sour/sweet stuff Sent from my SHIELD Tablet K1 using Diabetes.co.uk Forum mobile app

With regards to slight numbness in your toes, I had a slight numbness in one of my toes. So I got myself one of these. Revitive IX Circulation Booster https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00BKVG0NO/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_XShLxb13FG4P4 On an Amazon daily deal. It's brilliant and helps loads Sent from my...

My guess would be this one. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Reverse-Your-Diabetes-quick---easy/dp/009194824X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1469197182&sr=8-1&keywords=reverse+diabetes I have this book but have been a bit up and down health wise to try.

Well done. I have that book, took me a while to settle into good diet technique, but getting there. [emoji3] Good idea with the clothes, think I'll try to do the same with mine. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Diabetes.co.uk Forum mobile app

Well done for telling you brother. Both my parents have type 2 diagnosed at 60+. So you would have thought I would of known better, but when your in your late 20's you couldn't careless. 5 to 6 cans of Stella would be about right for me, but JD and Coke as a spirit. With a couple of cannabis...

Yeah Heretic1, I sometimes wish I had made some different life choices, but I was too wrapped up in it all, and even if someone pulled me to one side a year before and told me it would happen I would have probably laughed at them and ordered another Beer. Once you get everything into place it's...

Same here with the love carbs thing. I called my previous diet the Elvis Presley, I only ever ate foods I liked. So Burgers, Chips, Pizza eat out or takeaways, all washed down with flagons of ale. So to be honest the writing was on the wall for me as well :-)

I actually didn't want to believe it was happening and carried on as normal for about a year, kept falling ill. This was not helped by a tumour in the soft tissue along my jaw and nasal cavity. Once the tumour was removed and I got over the shock of not having enough bone to have screw in teeth...

I wouldn't say I was unhappy with the life choices, but the Doctor said carry on the way your going, I'll just keep making the appointments with the hospital. Yes you could say it was a wake up call, and yeah I did make massive changes overnight. At first it was tough the withdrawal after over...

Yeah it can be a little bit too much at times, and yeah I'm in need of a break that's for sure. Thing is my contract will come to an end in Jan after year end. I already have something in the pipeline for a late Feb start, so my intention is to just kick back a little bit in Jan. maybe even take...

You sound like a frustrated artist. Grab yourself a sketch book, few pencils. Water and some lunch. Then go draw. Landscapes, City scapes, seafront scene's, and in woods. Just what ever you have around. You might find you have a real talent waiting to be unlocked. Sent from my Nexus 5 using...

Hello, I'm more of a reader than a writer. I must say it's a great place to ask a question or two if you're a diabetic newbie. I've used a lot of the advice from here, currently trying a lower carb diet and having some great results. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Diabetes.co.uk Forum mobile app

I hope they become less frequent as I approach 32" waist :-) I haven't had a 32" waist since I was 25 nearly 20 years ago :-) Sent from my Nexus 5 using Diabetes.co.uk Forum mobile app

Thanks for the advice, however I do tend to steer clear of citrus fruits. I know these can really affect my moods. Like I say I never experienced anything like it before. My wife says it's my choice of music mixed with diabetes and possibly something I'm eating or something I've cut out, like a...

Had a great shopping trip this weekend and the diet is paying off. I just bought my first pair of 34" waist jeans in a decade. My waist size had been gaining over the last 10 years to a 38" and my weight had gone up to 14st 6. Feeling so much better now. I still have what I would call Dark...
