    ozempic

    I have been taking ozempic for last two weeks. Sitagliptin wasn't working. Couldn't lose weight. I I have been cutting out food that wasn't good for me. With that and ozempic I have lost 5 kg in as many weeks. Success in the horizon!!

    What test was used for your diagnosis?

    I went to Dr's feeling ill. All I was eating was jam/lemon curd sandwiches or on toast and drinking full coke...which I'd always hated. Straight for a full blood test...7.8.

    Diabullying

    I agree celeriac. I work with a bully. I just completely ignore her. She hates that. Worst part of it? Management do nothing about it

    True Anaelena. And she's good at it. Also with the 'poor me' act

    Diabullying

    I agree Anaelena. It opened my eyes to a work colleague who continually criticises what I eat/drink. Yet they eat continually throughout the day (diabetic t2 as well) stuffing herself with anything and everything anybody brings in. A big shopping bag with containers of food, chocolate, crisps...

    Mid morning breakfast of apple and plum. Lunch small yoghurt apple and small bottle nourishment milk drink (recovering from severe IBS episode last few days) and chicken and rosemary ravioli with small amount tomato sauce. Appetite very poor and eating what my stomach will accept :(

    That was the most brilliant article I've ever read. He should be applauded for standing up against diabullying :)

    "Skipping breakfast could cause dangerous spikes"

    I just read the email and thought it was somebody's idea of a joke. I'm the same as you Robbity. Readings might be slightly higher but never dangerously so. They are getting their '15 minutes of fame' and trying to scaremonger at same time. Wonder how much they were paid for it and by who?
