[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 889460, member: 94045"] Hello and welcome, You seem to be eating the right stuff at the moment, although Weetabix should be off the menu along with other cereals. If you are eating Bergen bread that is fine, but you need to limit the amount to possibly one slice, maybe 2 slices, and not eaten with other carbs in the same meal. Look out for hidden carbs (fruit and milk particularly as they contain a lot of sugar) and read all food labels for carb content. From what you say, your doctor/nurse are doing the right things. The blood test in a month's time will be to confirm the results of this last one, and you should then be asked to go in and discuss matters with either the GP or the nurse.. All you need for a diabetes diagnosis is a blood test. If you lose the extra pounds you are carrying and eat low carb, the ALT score should also come down. Have a look at this thread, which you may find very useful. [URL]http://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/threads/a-new-low-carb-guide-for-beginners.68695/[/URL] Good luck, and ask all the questions you wish.
