i had a similar problem with my contour.. i changed the batteries and it was ok again.. just a thought :)

hi..im a type 2 and ex rugby player. i do weight training 5 nights a week and yes i do supplement both with whey protein (low carb) and creatine and glutamine and fish oils. all brands effect people in different ways regarding whey protein so try some and see how your sugar sits when on it. i...

hi all, i have been attempting body building for the last four years since discovering i was type 2. i trained on a low carb diet initially for the first 18 months and to be honest whilst i lost weight i made very little impression on muscle mass. over the next 18 months i developed my training...

as far as i am aware, your medical records since being uploaded to the nhs spine are available freely to any group undertaking scientific research or other body who can demonstrate a clinical interest in their use. This was "allowed" a while ago when all clinical files were uploaded to the...

i think this post needs to get back on track..its about quick ready meals or snacks from supermarkets or forecourts or convenience stores...you know the times when we are in a hurry or caught short and need something quick , low carb and tasty..we know fresh is best but not always possible, so...

i have been low carbing since new year and i do the gym five nights per week both weights and distance work...i am also on metformin and to be honest tested myself alot at the start but found it made very little difference to my levels...i carry a gluco tab as a precautionary measure but have...
