    is it too late to reverse diabetes?

    My sugar levels certainly improved when I lost weight-I accept diabetes is never cured but can largely live as I like, I'm certainly not a "sufferer" Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

    Acceptance

    I can identify with not always feeling the incentive to treat my type 2 seriously-i'm still getting good figures at reviews but not quite as good as before. However at work I met a bloke who's having toes amputated his attitude is "mustn't grumble, can't do anything about it" to which my...

    Normal Life? or anywhere near.

    I'm going to write a book at the end of this year. My life has been so packed & eventful, good times have lead to stressful situations but that's a result of the partying etc, diabetes (type 2) has not held me back at all. I have lost 4 stone, I have good control, it slipped a bit in bad times...

    Thanks every one, it really has been tough times, and still will be for a while, I knew my control was being forgotten about as I started getting the itchy legs again (I don't have a meter) I've also had my wisdom teeth out, in 2 separate operations, so i'm currently in pain but having to eat...

    Feel like I could do with a friend right now

    I think the improvement already is fantastic, with the baby you have the right inventive to make those changes & if it wasn't for the pregnancy you'd not of been diagnosed yet, so in a way the baby has already been good to you. Whens it due? I'm sure many of us want to hear the happy ending so...

    It's good you realise the need for change but do it slowly, any big change may less you to resent the diabetes & get you down. Small changes are easier to maintain then followed by another small change gets you there in a way that you can keep to
