adamstclare, After reading all the replies you are getting here at diabetes.co.uk, the best diabetes website I have known, you will learn pretty fast that although type 2 diabetes is a mysterious disease, you can make it friendly with the use of D&E control method. Enjoy life always!!! Bonny...

LittleGrayCat: Yes, 'eat less and exercise more' is something I have been doing for more than 25 years and I have been enjoying life like I have no diabetes. Why is it easy for me to eat less and exercise more? Because during the four years that the Philippines was occupied by the Japanese...

Brunneria, Have you considered the fact that if there is somebody who has outdone me, he should have presented his claim by now. If you have not heard the names David Mendoza of mendoza.com and Sheri Colberg Ochs, you can google both names and you will easily find out who they are. Both of them...

WithoutSugar, By telling you my story, I don't mean to encourage you to follow my lead. What I wish to suggest is for you to experiment and see if you get the results you want. When I was diagnosed as a type 2 diabetic in July 1991 (my first blood sugar reading was468 mg/dl), I was required to...

James, Even if you did not eat anything after your night shift work, you would still get a high blood sugar reading. Why? Because the liver will release glucose from storage. Having some weetabix and a small piece of ginger cake were not the real cause of your bs highs. But they surely played a...

heli2010, I think that you are doing OK. The numbers you have been getting are the same as mine. Fasting and postprandial blood sugar readings for me have consistently been high since my diagnosis in July 1991 Amazingly, they have never bothered me Why? Maybe because I run the stairs a total of...

Grant, Excellent reply! Based on my 25+ years of experience with my type 2 diabetes, I have never had a hypo problem. Since my diagnosis in July 1991 (my first blood sugar reading was 468 mg/dl), I have always been using diet and exercise to control my disease. So far so good. My past A1c's...

Dalyan, This is my first time to reply to a first post of a prediabetic. I hope that I may be able to help. I have been a type 2 diabetic since the first week of July 1991. My first blood sugar reading was 468 mg/dl which was very high. I was supposed to be on several anti-diabetes pills. I...

Ellagy, Please understand that I am not contradicting your low-carbing. I cannot because I have never tried it. In all the 25+ years that I have been a type 2, My exercise has always been either running the stairs or walking the stairs, 4 sessions for a total of 1 hour/day. Bonny C Damocles...

During all the 25 years and 3 months that I have been a type 2 diabetic, I have always been eating HCLF meals. Most everything that I eat is heart-healthy, natural, fresh (raw or cooked), unprocessed, and whole. I totally avoid snacks, hard and soft drinks, salty, oily, and sugary foods. I eat...

As far as I am concerned, I totally agree that type 2 diabetes is a hidden killer. Not type 1. I never talk about type 1 diabetes because It is a very different disease. Regarding diet, although I have been having HCLF since my diagnosis 25 years and 2 months ago and having excellent success...

Chalup, There is nothing to be sorry about. Please stay focused on controlling your diabetes and you will eventually do well. Please understand that I got lucky insofar as my diabetes is concerned. I got DUMB (disciplined, upbeat, motivated, bold). In short, please eat the food you love but...

Chalup, I am here to tell my story and nothing more. My purpose is to encourage other type 2 diabetics to discover for themselves a way to have a long, healthy and happy life. Please remember that my good result was maintained in no less than 25 years. What happens if and when I cannot run up...

Remedy, Yes, I think that I am a carb addicted eater. In the Philippines where I came from, carbohydrates were the cheapest foods. I lived there during all the first 37 years of my life. We were very poor. Most days, we had sweet potatoes, rice, cheap fish like smelt. Baked goods, fatty cold...

I will always be a type 2 diabetic, no doubt about it. My diagnosis was based on a blood sugar reading of 468 mg/dl done in July 1991. A friend who was diagnosed a month ahead of me and who was on anti-diabetes pills complained about the hypo problems he was having. He said that they made him...
