My reading now is two hours after breakfast is 11-4 how does that rate? I'm going to have roast pork dinner without the spuds mostly veg, am I starting to do things right? Also in future ill only have one slice of toast or Greek yogurt for brekkie. Is that ok?

Hi it's me again, I don't understand what has happened with my bg tests. Yesterday before breakfast it was 8-3 then two hours after breakfast it was 12-5 I'd had two pieces of whole meal toast with butter and crab paste on. I had lamb casserole for dinner with no spuds, tea time I had some pork...

Hi Roy, sorry to hear you have man flu, hope you feel better soon! I asked the pharmacist at Asda if these herbal supplements help with reducing bg! He said no, he said I could possibly increase my glucophage but he also said consult my doctor first. I told him I don't want insulin and that...

Hi everyone, izzzi I would love to have company to go on holiday. My five sons won't take me, I'm very independant and although I'm in a wheelchair I don't let it stop me, I just like company. I don't have a motorised chair, I don't like them, I prefer using my arms to propell and my one leg...

Thanks medorrhinum, I will try and get some of those drops. I'll make enquiries.your diet seems good,I might give it a try thanks,

I will have to leave things at the moment, feel utterly lost. Can't cope. Thanks everyone for trying to help, my depression is to hard to handle at the moment as well as everything else going on. I'll keep a look in from time to time, bye thanks again. Cuddles.

Thanks Susan ,you seem to be just like me! I'm very depressed at the moment, and have been since Christmas day as my other health problem caused me to be ill. Also I seem to be dogged by misfortune, I'd booked a holiday to Scotland ,near loch ness staying in a log cabin with my son and daughter...

Thanks again for your replies. Unfortunately today I started with good intentions, bought veg ,chicken, whole meal bread, and looked on the website that was recommended to me. However, I've failed once again. I hate myself, I just can't seem to accept my situation. I want to change but honestly...

Thanks for the web site I'll have a look at it in a mo! I will buy brown bread , as I do like the odd sandwich but is it whole wheat or whole grain. Also what spread do you use? Marg or butter? I've also started having celebrity slim meal replacements are they ok?

I feel very upset talking about my diabetes. In fact I'm crying while writing this. It's very hard for me and I really don't know if I can do this. I've struggled for over a year and haven't got any better at coping with it! At the time I was diagnosed, I was also told I had a very rare...

Thanks for replying to me. My Hba1c was I'm told around 65. I don't know what that means, but seemingly its been like that since I was diagnosed with type 2! All I was told by the surgery was to just watch my carbohydrates and fats, and sent on my way! The nurse at the surgery told me I didn't...

I was diagnosed last in 2011 as type 2. I still cannot accept it, I don't understand anything about the diet, medication or hba1c. I'm 58yrs old this month and feel my life is over. I'm confined to a wheelchair, for9yrs, and can't find anyone to help motivate me to loose weight. I'm lost and...
