[QUOTE="Outlier, post: 2640865, member: 550046"] Prior to diagnosis I had a "healthy" diet (as in healthy for non-diabetics) and struggled all my life to keep my weight down by calorie control and exercise. Looking back, I can now identify a host of warning flags for T2 diabetes, but I wasn't aware at the time. It was easy and unremarkable to blame these symptoms on my very high-octane work environment, some life situations that rocked me to the core, and the really awful menopause I was having (and still have some symptoms from many years later). It's only now I feel much better that I understand how ill I was. If I'd gone to the GP I suspect I'd have been given anti-depressants and a diet sheet. [/QUOTE]
