please dont read my rant!! my lovely wife is driving me insane, 8 weeks from diag, ive completely changed my lifestyle, takeaways coke and chocolate in biblical proportions to low carb, zero excercise to killing myself in the gym, ive lost 25lb in weight, im baking most days yes baking unbelievable, i go shopping and buy them goodies and never cheat, we go to mcdonalds and i eat the salad while they have burgers fries etc, i remain upbeat and positive most of the time, ive basically taken this very seriously and am determined to not die from diabetes like my dad at 67, ive succeeded in bringing down my bp from 250/125 to 130/80 my bg from mid twenties to 3.5 to 8 and all i get is, "your losing to much weight to fast its bad for you" and "dont be ridiculous you cant run in the 2014 london marathon your hurt yourself" and tonight it was " your cutting out good food that you need like breakfast cereal" and when i say no your wrong cereals are bad for my bg "you are on this private journey and no one else is allowed in " i feel just like that although i denied it, this is all said because she loves and cares for and is worried about me but ***.......... wow i actually feel better after writing this, thankyou for not reading my rant
