    Slim fast Keto shake

    I am prescribed both Metformin and a statin but i take neither. Metformin gave me chronic stomach issues. I was intending to use it as a meal replacement. So it could replace lunch some days when I am so busy with work or I don’t have any food in. I have tried it for two days, it tastes good...

    Slim fast Keto shake

    I saw this slim fast keto range in Boots at the weekend. I decided to purchase and will give it a try for a week or two. I wondered if anyone else has tried this range? Has it worked for you? Is it suitable for type 2 diabetics? The range also features snack bars as well.

    Should I be on Metformin for prediabetes

    I can’t help.... but I also mentioned what I suspect to be neuropathy to my doctor. And he was equally as dismissive, I have only had diagnosed diabetes type 2 for 14 months but he seems to think I can’t have it. But my fingers and feet tingle. It certainly makes me focus on keeping my blood...

    Can I get drunk?

    Some interesting answers on this thread. Can I ask, when would be the best time to test to see a beers effect on my blood sugar.... Would it be 2 hours after the beer? Or perhaps the morning after? I test for food but am not sure how or when is best to test to see the effects of a drink on...

    2020/21 Football Season.

    As a Colchester fan, we have achieved our goal Of survival..... our two best players are missing due to ‘personal reasons’..... I think we’ll at best get a draw. You should beat us and in a way I’d hate to stop your season now we have nothing to play for. Good luck in the play offs if you get...

    2020/21 Football Season.

    That’s clutching at straws...... I could understand if the season was curtailed in some way, but all games played and all teams suffered the same issues. Would undermine the competitiveness of the league.... and if there’s no relegation from league two, there can’t be relegation from league one...

    Stopping smoking

    Giving up smoking was so hard for me. However, it gets easier and quickly. These 32 hours are done and behind you, moving forward it will get easier. Just keep reminding yourself that the anger and issues you are having now are BECAUSE you smoked, not because you have given up. Very shortly...

    Really struggling with low carb

    Chicken is a good meat? I eat loads of it! Have you tried cauliflower rice? I mean for me cauliflower is awesome (before diagnosis I NEVER ate it at all.... now I love it. You can roast cauliflower, or chop it up as a rice substitute? Greek yoghurt is a good one? Maybe a cheeky square of dark...

    Correct! I thought our win against you was a turning point..... it wasn’t. Then I realised your form at the time was awful as well!

    2020/21 Football Season.

    My boys have named a new manager, the third person in five weeks to take charge. We’ve won 1 in 20 games. We are sinking fast..... non league is awaiting us next season! Tonight I can hopefully enjoy the England boys win though [emoji881] [emoji881] [emoji881]
