[QUOTE="Gudrun, post: 525238, member: 103109"] Does that mean the level of fitness has an effect on BS? I thought it was the actual exercise only. That would be very interesting. Everybody in my family developed diabetes in their 30s and 40s (apart from one niece, they are/were all diabetic with T2). I moved away from Germany when I was 27 and changed my lifestyle (eat differently, walked a lot, etc.) In my late 30s I started to train karate and trained for 5 years. I have always, always put down the fact that I have not developed T2 like the rest of my family in my 30s/40s to the fact that I was so much more active than them (and eat differently). I developed chronic fatigue/ME 20 years ago and since then I am much more sedentary and just go through phases where I can walk a mile a day or so, but can't do it regularly. Now I am prediabetic, but considering the diabetic fate of the rest of my family I am very pleased that I managed to hold T2 at bay for such a long time. So is it level of fitness that has helped me not to become like the rest of my family? Because, surely, the genes are likely to be there. [/QUOTE]
